[7.28] Color killer
In CVBS or S-video input, the chroma signal quality of the input signal is determined by comparison of its color
burst level against the threshold setting in the color killer control register. If the level is below the threshold, the
color killer is activated, resulting in processing of the input as a monochrome signal and thus with CbCr data
fixed at 0x80. Depending on the register setting, the color killer may also be activated by failure of the color
decode PLL lock.
