  • Patent number: 11354214
    Abstract: A judgment method for hardware compatibility is disclosed. The judgment method is operated with a first electrical device and a second electrical device having a plurality of transmission interfaces. The judgment method is started after the first electrical device electrically connected to one of the transmission interfaces of the second electrical device. The judgment method includes an interface information capturing process, a compatibility comparison process, a compatibility determination process and a recommendation execution process. In the interface information capturing process, the interface information of the transmission interface of the second electrical device connected to the first electrical device is captured. In the compatibility comparison process, the interface information is compared with a compatibility database to obtain a comparison result.

  • Patent number: 10764551
    Abstract: A method for configuring image-recording settings includes receiving an image source, determining whether the image source is the high dynamic range (HDR) image. If a HDR image source is received, a step is performed for determining whether a recording device supports recording an image with a HDR format, and a step is performed for adding a HDR recording option if the recording device supports recording the image with the HDR format.

  • Publication number: 20190222720
    Abstract: A method for synchronizing multimedia signals includes a receiving process, a detecting process, a signal synchronization adjusting process and an output process. The receiving process receives a first multimedia signal and a second multimedia signal. The detecting process detects the time point of a first burst signal in the first multimedia signal and the time point of detecting a second burst signal in the second multimedia signal. The signal synchronization adjustment process adjusts the delay time of the first multimedia signal or the second multimedia signal. The output process outputs the adjusted first multimedia signal and the second multimedia signal after the adjustment.
