Info Tab

Selecting the Info tab of the Video Configuration Utility opens the Info page. It provides statistics
on the capture image.
The Histogram window displays the histogram for the image.
The Cross-Section window (indicated by the dashed red line) shows a graph of the current
cross-section of the image, as well as minimum and maximum values of Red, Green, and Blue on
the cross-section line.
Channel Selection lets the user enable or disable which color channels are selected or
deselected. For example the installer can disable Green.
The Status controls at the bottom of the page enable the installer to display information about the
image such as:
BPP (bits per pixel);
Image size;
Cursor position;
