I know what the difference is and how they work but I have a rather technical question that I've so far been unable to find the answer to and my maths is not up to the task.
Given how the both work I believe it should be possible to come up with a test signal of the appropriate duty cycle that'll read "0' on both types of meter. This would seem very useful to me, we have a lot of vintage analogue video gear still in service most of which has VU meters but trying to work out if their calibration matches correctly the PPM meters on the digital gear is difficult. A simple test tone would be might useful.
