Description

There's a lot of pretty repetitive code inside the chart data and video sync lines that could be cleaned up a lot.

  • Combining the handling of colour charts and all others requires a lot of duplicated cases, and if we come along with a separate data type for it, it will only multiply. Would be great if this could be separated / abstracted out.
  • Similar to chart video sync lines. Currently only have vertical or vert + hori bars, handled with an if. Preferably we have separate flows for them

Other than that, code is just messy.

Research direction

Start by locating the chart data parsing and chart video sync line handling, then compare the colour-chart versus other data paths and the vertical versus vert + hori bar paths. Done means the repeated cases are separated or abstracted without changing existing chart and video-sync behavior; no files or tests are named in the issue.
