3D 4K 3G-SDI Pattern Generator

[Dan1969]

Hi All,

I am looking for a 3D-SDI video test signal generator that outputs SDI and HDMI for my PC. It should have all the typical 'old' standard multi color bars, cross hatch SMPTE 259M,SMPTE 292M/SMPTE 424/425M and timer etc.
I have QuestTel 3G-SDI Pattern Generator that can handle HDTV NTSC or PAL and 16:9 formats to 720p and 1080p.
While I have been able to find a myriad of stand alone units, which is fine I am looking for recommendations, or stay away from's.
I also would be interested in a USB option to connect to my MAC PRO if available for true portability(something I can throw in my laptop case).

Look forward for recommendations

Thanks all,
Dan

Hi Dan,

If anything you would find this category of information on the Multimedia Test section of our website:

http://www.ni.com/multimedia-test/ 

The various hardware and software pieces can be found here toggling through the left column:

It might be most efficient to call in and speak to one of our sales engineers about your application to see if NI would be a good fit or not - moving forward Multimedia Test is not one of our major focuses as a company, so we would want to diagnose what exactly you're looking to accomplish.

Since NI is no longer marketing any of the Video test HW or SW perhaps it could offer it in the form of a IMAQ reference design.  Certainly, basic things like color bar generation in IMAQ could be included.  I for one would like to have access to that capability.
