  • Scanning an image within a narrow horizontal line frequency range irrespective of the frequency at which the image is received
    Patent number: 6545688
    Abstract: A display unit designed to be scanned within a narrow horizontal scanning range irrespective of the frequency at which the horizontal lines of an image are received. If the horizontal line frequency of the received display signal does not fall within the narrow horizontal scanning range, the image frames in the display signal are scaled at least vertically such that the number of horizontal lines in each scaled image frame times the frame rate falls within the horizontal scanning range. As a result, the images can be scanned within the horizontal range for which a display unit is designed for. The scaling can be performed without using a frame buffer as the frame rate (at which the images are encoded in a display signal) equals the scanning rate.
