Abstract: A data format employing multiple different headers associated with corresponding OSD content facilitates the implementation of an efficient and flexible OSD management and control system. Each header contains a unique display characteristic or set of display characteristics for the interpretation and presentation of an associated OSD pixel map. In using this system, the presentation or modification of an OSD involves the selection of the header, associated with the OSD, having the desired display characteristics to be used in presenting or modifying the OSD.
