I need a color bar pattern, anybody know where I can find one on the net?

[Joe's tv]

I've tried google searching and can't seem to find a link.

I'm looking for a color bar test pattern that I could convert to a .ts file, so I can put it on a memory stick and plug it into into my CNX, and then set up the colors on my rear projection tv through the SDTV component input.

It's hard to get them just right by flesh tones and black and white balance, and my color bar generator is an old school analog job that does not have line outputs. I just put in a new rack of pix tubes and want to set it up right!

Can someone help? Thankz in advance..... :)

I made a DVD and used that when I set up my Mitsubishi RPTV.

Those are exactly what I'm looking for...... I just don't know how to import one onto a DVD or make a .ts file for my flash drive. I was hoping one of the links had a simple download feature or something.

Anybody want to tackle explaining how to do this to a computer dummy? LOL :noidea:

I just found a good use for my Kbox......it will display jpeg images (I forgot about that) :yeaah:

It would seem to me all I need do is copy the photos of the patterns, save them as a jpeg, and then import them to the flash drive, am I correct?
