    Waveform

    This data is a 3D histogram. It represents the Luma component (whitness) of the video. It is the same type of graph as for the RGB Parade. The horizonal axis represents the horizonal axis in the video frame. The vertical axis is the pixel luma from 0 to 255. The brightness of the point on the graph represents the count of the number of pixels with this luma in this column of pixels in the video frame.

    For more information see Granjow's blog on the waveform and RGB parade scopes. This blog gives some information on how to use the data provided by the RGB parade to do colour correction on video footage.
