Abstract: A television receiver includes a phase-locked loop (PLL) which generates a clock signal having a frequency of N times the line frequency and being phase-locked to the horizontal line synchronizing signal. The clock signal produced by this PLL has a frequency which tends to jitter between N+1 and N-1 times the line frequency. To compensate for this jittering in the frequency of the clock signal, phase alignment circuitry is coupled to the PLL to align the phase of the clock signal to the horizontal drive signal produced by the PLL on the occurrence of each horizontal drive pulse. The PLL also includes a delay element which delays the horizontal drive signal applied to the phase comparator of the PLL. This delay element effectively advances the phase of the horizontal drive signal and the line-locked clock signal with respect to the horizontal sync signal to compensate for signal processing delays imparted in the generation of the horizontal drive signal and the clock signal.

Abstract: A video disc player having an adaptive bumper apparatus which tracks the signal pickup stylus to maintain a fixed spatial relation therebetween. The bumper is fixed to an electromechanical transducer secured to the stylus arm support carriage. Signals correlated to the relative disc-stylus velocity having frequency components of the once around rate of the disc are adapted to energize the transducer to cause the bumper to follow the motion of the stylus in the radial dimension. Disturbing visual effects resulting from disc defects, etc. which tend to kick the signal pickup stylus fore or aft of the current track position are significantly reduced.

Abstract: A stylus arm having a bimorph transducer integrally mounted therewith is combined with electrical circuitry for detecting prescribed components of stylus motion and with circuitry for applying potential to the transducer to impart corrective translatory motion to the stylus arm.
