Which terminal of the transistors did you measure? The base?
You are aware that a video signal is a complex waveform and that the reading given by a meter depends as much on the meter as the measured signal?

Like Pierre says, what you read has a relation with the waveform, which here is the AC ripple left on the DC after rectifying and smoothening.
So this would be an interesting case for exchanging the capacitor (or set of 2 caps) inside the adaptor. -

For sound purposes, it's pretty much enough to look at the waveform in a standard wave editor.
The core of my routine is more or less done actually, but there are a few unresolved issues with the framework, ie. how to update note data pointers etc. -
