When monitoring the vector scopes for color saturation levels it gives two different readings.
The true level (I assume) when video is playing but an inflated illegal level when the playhead is static.
Quality for pause and play is set to "Full". However when you set the Programme Monitor to "High Quality Playback" (via wrench) you only get the inflated illegal level playing or static. That is problematic as I have it set to HQ playback when picture grading so that blurs and other small fx come through on the scopes. Currently the problem presents itself with a .png on the timeline but the same goes for various video files. Why can't the vectorscope just give us the one true reading instead of either or, and it would seem the level is locked in the wrong reading in HQ playback? (pics of both levels attached)

Hello @barat munji,
I'm checking back in on this bug report. Are you seeing this issue in 24.5? Have you tried the high quality setting as @R Neil Haugen recommends? Let the community know.
Thanks,
Kevin

I run a tightly calibrated and profiled system, I always use HQ playback, and the scopes are pretty accurate. I don't get the differnce between pause and playback.
And as with the same file I will get identical scope readings between Premiere and Resolve, and much of my deliverables to sent to colorists (I teach pro colorists btw) if anything is off in their outboard scopes, I'd hear about it immediately.
So I would suggest that perhaps the HQ setting might actually give the correct reading.
