Final Cut Pro HD: Checking saturation leads to a black screen in the Waveform Monitor

HD material isn't stored or transmitted as a composite signal, so it's not possible to view saturation data separately in the Waveform Monitor. If you select Saturation from the shortcut menu, the monitor goes black.

To restore the Waveform Monitor, Control-click in the window and deselect Saturation.
