Claim:
1. A method for analyzing a data stream representing streaming video, comprising: capturing, by a portable bit error rate tester (BERT), the data stream representing streaming video, the data stream comprising digital data representing pixels being transmitted on a network, the BERT storing a predetermined test pattern; comparing, by the BERT, the captured data stream with the predetermined test pattern; in response to the comparing, identifying, by the BERT, a subset of the pixels transmitted on the network, wherein the subset of the pixels are corrupted pixels of the pixels represented by the digital data in the data stream; determining whether a temporal display function is enabled; and presenting on a display only the subset of corrupted pixels, wherein the presented subset of corrupted pixels are illuminated in locations on the display at which the corrupted pixels would otherwise be located in the streaming video.
