EBU R 103 Test Chart and DCTL code to create it, provided by Thomas Berglund (NRK).
The Quicktime file linked from here is a 10-bit Uncompressed YUV ('v210') Test Chart that conforms to EBU R 103.
Purpose
This EBU R 103 Test Chart is made to check that signal processing in video software and hardware products handles sub-black and super-white data correctly. Such data are typically encountered in a live production context.
Note that for pre-produced and colour graded material, it is expected that the nominal video limits described in EBU R 103 are closely followed.
Sources
To create your own (branded) chart, you can use this BlackMagic Davinci Resolve DCTL, which has been kindly provided by Thomas Berglund (NRK). A video showing you how to use it is available, also. The text overlay that Thomas showed in his video, you can download in PNG and in PSD format.
