Video Interrupt Method Results

The video interrupt method is the one that I have spent the most time with. I had seen some people use similar testing methodologies before me, and there have been others after me (@wydd) who have created similar testing methods, however I would suggest that no one has been at it as long as I have. 

The advantage of the video interrupt method is that it allows for very accuate (sub ms) results. With a program (which I have created) large numbers of results can quickly be generated and summarised, allowing for videos/uploads for people to check for themselves. 

The disadvantage is that it is contingent on using a HDMI-component adapter. This rules out the possibility of testing 4K/>60hz/VRR and other modern nuances, as these were never included in these converters. Similarly, PCs have always seemed to perform poorly with these converters, sometimes limiting the frame rate to 30hz, sometimes refusing to output and sometimes despite working providing results that seem dubious.
