  • Publication number: 20100142735
    Abstract: An audio system to calibrate an audio signal based on a wirelessly received signal, and a signal calibration method are provided. The audio system includes a sound output unit to output a sound corresponding to a received audio signal. A transceiver is connected to an external device to enable wireless communication between a main unit and the external device. The external device converts the sound output from the sound output unit into an electric signal to generate a calibration audio signal. The main unit performs calibration on an audio signal to be played back through the sound output unit using the calibration audio signal.

  • Patent number: 6925244
    Abstract: A video signal recording/reproducing apparatus for recording/reproducing a high resolution video signal wherein the video resolution is enhanced by shifting a carrier frequency to a higher band in frequency modulation in a VCR's video signal recording mode, and by differently setting the frequency characteristics depending on the presence of a color signal in the video signal. The video signal recording/reproducing apparatus results in a highly enhanced resolution of a recording/reproducing video signal by determining use of a color signal trap in an equalizing block and a filter frequency for separating a luminance signal depending on the presence of a color signal in recording/reproducing a video signal after determining whether the color signal is present.

  • Publication number: 20050034165
    Abstract: Disclosed is a digital entertainment system which can receive, store and reproduce multimedia data such as broadcasts, provide diverse communication interfaces, and exchange and share data with external appliances connected thereto. In the network printer control system, an audio and video (A/V) signal processing part receives external broadcasting signals, and outputs digital data obtained through a process of channel selection and demodulation of the broadcasting signal. A data over cable service interface specification (DOCSIS) and out of band (OOB) processing part provides a communication interface according to a DOCSIS standard and for an OOB service. An MPEG processing part generates standard video signals by decoding input data by a predetermined method, and outputs the generated standard video signals to any external appliances, and a system bus communicably connects the signal processing part, the DOCSIS/OOB processing part and the MPEG processing part.

  • Patent number: 6385390
    Abstract: A high fidelity (Hi-Fi) audio signal recording/playback apparatus in which a Hi-Fi audio signal is recorded/reproduced using video heads without an extra Hi-Fi audio head. In the Hi-Fi audio signal recording/playback apparatus, the Hi-Fi audio signal is recorded and reproduced together with the video signal using the same 2-channel head and the same pre-amplifier, without an extra head and pre-amplifier for only a Hi-Fi audio signal, thereby markedly lowering the manufacturing cost.
