JohnfromUK Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 It is a pattern called "colour bars" used a bit like a test card picture. Some video routers/switches/devices etc. automatically insert it on lines without a valid 'real' image. The purpose is to show that the monitor and path between the device inserting the colour bars pattern is operating, and clearly show a fault rather than (say) a dark picture. Could be caused by a missing 'real' video signal, which could be camera unplugged/no power/failed/video lead disconnected/damaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
