======== VQMA-3 Versions ========

Main VQMA3 version of the software can analyze .YUV files created by video decoders or captured via standard capture devices, such as AJA KONA card

VQMA3U version of the software can also receive test pattern YUV or RGB data directly from Unigraf capture card - via shared memory, without any intermediate file recording. Thus, it is capable to analyze any YUV/RGB data, even the data coming from HDCP protected sources

Simplified VQMA3F ('field') version does not support YUV/RGB Scope features

Analysis of video files in lower resolutions SD formats, such as NTSC/PAL/SECAM is possible with the previous VQMA versions, the latest is VQMA 2v4 :
