"Such problem is hard to debug if you don't have an HDMI analyzer at 
hand." - Jeroen

I was under the impression that HDMI and DVI use the same standard and are 
electronically equivalent.  Of course, just because the signals mate 
doesn't mean the color space is the same.

So any suggestions what one might use to analyze or discover the color 
spaces of an HDMI and DVI-D signal?  The same question might be had for 
HD-SDI.  I have a Phabrix analyzer and need to dive into it a little more 
to see what information I can extract.  The device is fairly 
sophisticated.

We are converting between HDMI, DVI and HD-SDI to use different types and 
levels of equipment.  It is impossible to use just one standard these 
days.  But in the conversion, things get messed up and I am experiencing 
this.  I would like to be able to straighten it out.
