1. A video test system for generating a video test sequence comprising:
- a circular buffer having a video input, wherein the video input provides video sequence data to the circular buffer;
a trigger system connected to the circular buffer to provide a trigger signal to cause the circular buffer to capture at least a portion of the video sequence data, wherein the trigger system provides the trigger signal in response to a characteristic of the video sequence data or information included with the video sequence data; and
a test generator output in communication with the circular buffer to produce a video test sequence based upon the captured video sequence data.

Abstract
A video test system is provided with a circular buffer to capture a video input sequence in response to a trigger, and a test generator output to generate a video test sequence based upon the captured video test sequence. The system may be implemented using a single instrument, or a combination of instruments, such as video waveform monitors and video signal generators. A method is also provided for generating video test sequences based upon captured video sequences.
