Description
The SEVEN Generator is the next generation in HDMI test and measurement equipment from Murideo. An approved test device for Dolby Vision™ and Dolby Audio™, the SEVEN hosts an unmatched suite of audio and video tests. This device is the GO-TO tool for the video device, display, or repeater manufacturer as well as the consummate video professional.
The impressive video capabilities of the SEVEN include native 10/12 Bit BT2020 video output with over 1000 patterns, including HDR, SDR, Dolby Vision, and HLG. Test patterns are generated from FPGA or raw YUV files for a truly native experience and include video playback. The SEVEN includes the full suite of patterns from Diversified Video Solutions and other patterns and videos from Bill Wetzel, ISF, PVA, Portrait Displays, and Spears & Munsil. This device is the ideal solution for display calibration and evaluation. The test suite allows the user to construct a test signal with any video format and any audio format, then execute a test based on your own parameters and allows for reporting. The device has 1.5TB of storage, with reservations for up to 3 minutes of 4K60 4:4:4 video playback so the user can quickly load patterns using the USB 3.0 interface. The SEVEN is also capable of 120 frame video playback.
The impeccable performance in video generation is just the beginning. As a test device approved by Dolby Laboratories, Inc., SEVEN was designed with advanced audio testing capabilities, including A/V Sync (Lip Sync), Audio Latency, and Dolby Audio. This approved test device for Dolby Audio contains all current Dolby Audio streams, including; Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus (w/Dolby Atmos), Dolby MAT (Dolby Atmos), and Dolby True HD (w/ Dolby Atmos). The Audio Suite of tests is available in HDMI Tx, ARC Tx, and eARC Tx. With additional features like tone generation, frequency sweeps, AV Sync measurements, audio latency measurements, this is an audio swiss army knife. The built-in photo-diode sensor and microphone allow you to get real-time sync and latency measurements from HDMI and ARC/eARC.
Enjoy complete control, speed, and versatility with simple haptic controls from the front keypad with clear results on the large 7" HD Screen. Control is even easier in the lab with the internally hosted Web Interface when connected to a local area network. IP and device addresses can be updated so multiple units can be in the same place, on the same network, and be independently controlled.

Not sure if audio is getting to or from a display via HDMI/ARC/eARC? The Seven G will help you verify that these signals are getting to where they need to be. The days of having to go back to an installation to “fix” the distributed audio system are over, instal with confidence by testing with the SEVEN Generator first. This will save you money on truck rolls to finished installations so you can move on to the next home theater or distributed system.

COLOR CHECKER
The following test patterns are used for color checker tests. Each patch in each test pattern has a specific value for the Hue, Saturation, and Value (luminance) for each color. These values can be identified on each patch by the identifying numbers. The numbers at the bottom of each patch is that patch’s RGB (or triplet) value.
- The patterns labeled HSL show the color in rows (left to right) from 100% saturation (full color) to no color (greyscale). The columns (top to bottom) show the color from 100% luminance (white) to 0% luminance (black).
- The patterns labeled HSV show the color in rows (left to right) from 100% saturation to no color (greyscale). The columns (top to bottom) show the color from 100% luminance to 0% luminance (black).
- The patterns labeled RGB start with a specific color patch in the upper left corner. As you look at the patches from left to right or up or down the color is changing in hue. Diagonally from upper left to lower right the color changes in saturation.
