Abstract: A channel hiatus correction method for an HDMI device is provided. A recovery code from scrambled data of the stream is obtained. A liner feedback shift register (LFSR) value of channels of the HDMI port is obtained based on the recovery code and the scrambled data of the stream. The stream is de-scrambled according to the LFSR value of the channels of the HDMI port. Video data is displayed according to the de-scrambled stream.

Abstract: Stable, pourable aqueous suspensions of solid particulate materials are provided, especially suspensions of sulfur dyes which are characterized a very low content of inorganic sulfides and inorganic polysulfides. The suspensions are produced using certain suspension stabilizing agents, particularly polysaccharides, such as xanthan gum, whose solutions in water are pseudoplastic. The suspensions may further comprise a non-sulfide reducing agent. An improved method is also provided for determining the the potential for such suspensions to release hydrogen sulfide upon being acidified at a given temperature, which method comprises acidifying a sample of the suspension to pH 2.9-3.7, capturing all of the hydrogen sulfide released during acidification in aqueous alkali and measuring the sulfide ion content of the aqueous alkali.
