Abstract: In a single-chip multistandard video modulator arrangement in which audio signals for transmission with video signals are first modulated onto a subcarrier and then combined with the video signals for modulation onto a VHF or UHF main carrier, the modulated subcarrier signals are passed through a high-pass filter before being combined with the video signals in order to reduce the amplitude of any audio frequency components, and the resulting variations in main carrier amplitude, which tend to produce "sound in vision" effects.

Abstract: A delay correction circuit includes a source of a clock signal and a source of a timing signal asynchronous with the clock signal. A timing signal detector is responsive to the clock signal and the timing signal, and is properly operative only when the timing signal is stable for a predetermined time period around the clock signal. A control circuit conditions utilization circuitry to operate after a delay time after the timing signal is detected. Adjusting circuitry conditions the control circuit to adjust the delay time if the timing signal was not stable within the predetermined time period.

Abstract: An encoder generating an analogue color signal is configured by a digital circuit. An external frame signal supplied from an external apparatus is counted by a clock pulse signal generated by a crystal oscillator, and a synchronizing signal to be added to the luminance signal is produced on the basis of a counted results, and all horizontal synchronizing periods of digital active lines are made identical, and in vertical blanking period, a predetermined horizontal synchronizing period is made variable.
