to force TOF2&3 reset if unlocked more than 256ms after main PLL1 is locked.
Fixed Sync-Ref 720p outputs: Corrected timing errors with 720p-59.94 & 720p-60. Changed (invalid) 720p-48 with 720p-24.


11-17-22  Version 1.0.1
Fixed internal timing issue: Scaler output clock/data phase was adjusted (IFD=0) to eliminate occasional bit errors in active video.

(Customer Request) Increased adjustment speed of Vertical Phase Control:
     Rotate Knob = 1 line increment (same). Pushing + or - button = 5 line increment (was 2.5). Holding down + or - button = 10 line increment (new).


10-08-20  Version 0.8.5
Updated Whitelist.
09-20-20  Version 0.8.4

Fixed overflow errors in color correction circuits.


08-20-20  Version 0.8.2
EFX & GAMMA CONTROLS:
Added EFX controls (Random/block noise generator, Mixer, and Transition time) similar to the older MVP-24 but now work on all outputs.
Added Gamma control to Color Correction menus. Range is 0.45 to 2.2. 



07-29-20  Version 0.8.0
CUSTOM TSG TEST SIGNALS:
Added storage of custom test signals. When a Custom Key is found on the SD Card, TSG menus become available to load custom test signal.
Added image capture for still buffers, and custom TSG buffers. The output image can now be captured directly to buffers.
Changed naming conventions for Still Image buffers (changed from "Image" to "Buffer") and menus, based on customer feedback.



04-02-20  Version 0.7.7
STILL IMAGE STORAGE:
Added FLASH memory storage of still images. When a still Image is loaded from the SD card, it is stored in FLASH memory.
The stored still image(s) and associated data are automatically reloaded from FLASH memory on power up. 
The SD card is not needed once the still image has been stored.
"<blank>" has been added to the still selection (rotate knob counter-clockwise) to allow stored images to be blanked (erased).



03-03-20  Version 0.7.5
REF OUTPUTS:
Added selection for TTL Composite Sync on Ref1 and Ref2 outputs. Phase aligned composite sync with composite video outputs.
(Removed Tri-level 720p-24)

FRONT PANEL KNOB (ROTARY ENCODER):
Added digital filtering to improve accuracy of front panel knob adjustments.
Added circuit to inhibit rotational adjustments when pushing knob.

STILL IMAGE: 
"Image #n: <name>" menu allows loading of selected still images from SD card. The name of the currently loaded still is displayed.
"Save Output Image as:" menu captures output image and saves it to SD card with a unique default name.
"Delete Stored Image:" menu allows stills to be deleted from the SD card.
Added image resolution to the stored image file header, so various output resolutions can be captured.

SYSTEM CLOCK:
The system clock can be easily set using the +/- buttons to select parameter, and the knob to adjust.
Note, the correct Date and Time is needed for Saving Stills.




02-05-20  Version 0.7.0
Enabled HDMI (1.4a) output.
HDMI Output is now active for most standard video formats, and VGA formats.

Added support for 1080p-24/25/30 and 720p-24/25/30 for SDI and HDMI inputs and outputs.
Updated HDMI E-EDID to add 1080p-24/25/30 and 720p-24/25/30.
 
Major changes to Motion Filter.
Improved Interpolation for conversions between 24.00 and 23.98 frame rates (also 30.00 and 29.97).
Converting from 24Fps to 30Fps, now uses a 3:2 pulldown cadence instead of interpolation.
Added menu to control type of Motion Filter used.

Added 3:2 Cadence Detector for 30Fps interlaced or 60p inputs, when converting to 24Fps outputs.
When detected, the 24 frame video is extracted from the 30Fps input without using interpolation.
Added menu to control Cadence detector.


Fixed pixel jitter on analog outputs.

Fixed color noise problem on front panel video monitor when genlocking to 24 frame composite signal.

Fixed clipping circuit on component output when gain is greater then 100%.
(error in luma clip circuit forced zero instead of max code).




01-06-20  Version 0.6.5
Added support for genlocking to Frame Drive and Vertical Drive signals.
Also added support for genlocking to Composite 24 frame signals.

Fixed the alignment of Vertical sync (at Vert Phase = 0 deg) for all frame rates.

Fixed Horizontal Phase control (error beyond 4096 clocks).

Added Reference 1 & 2 Output Selection menus.
Choose between Composite Video, Black Burst, Comp Sync, Tri-Level (720 and 1080 standards), Vert Drive, and Frame Drive.




12-16-19  Version 0.6.0

Fixed a "hit" that occurred in 24Fps outputs (as well as 25 and 30.00).
(The hit typically happened 33 seconds after selecting the frame rate, or powering on the unit.)

Fixed the SDI input for genlock reference.
The MVPHD-24 can now genlock to the SDI input regardless of which video input is selected.

Fixed internal clocking issues when SDI input is selected, but no SDI signal is present.
(The previous version was a little sluggish to change inputs or select TSG when there was no SDI signal present.)

The MVPHD-24 now defaults to a blue screen when SDI is selected and no SDI signal is present.




12-11-19  Version 0.5.0 - Initial release
