  • Publication number: 20130229575
    Abstract: A digital TV data processing method includes: (a) when a first channel digital TV data corresponding to a first channel is displayed, storing a second channel digital TV data corresponding to a second channel, the second channel digital TV data including an audio data and a video data; (b) when the first channel is switched to the second channel, decoding the video data of the stored second channel digital TV data at a first rate; and (c) when the decoding catches up a real-time second channel digital TV data corresponding to the second channel, decoding subsequent second channel digital TV data at a second rate and displaying a corresponding real-time decoding result; wherein the first rate is higher than the second rate.

  • Patent number: 8502770
    Abstract: A display device is provided. The display device includes a command processing unit, a command converting unit, a universal serial bus (USB) interface and a display module. The command processing unit processes a remote-control command from a remote-controller. The command converting unit generates a human interface device (HID) command corresponding to the remote-control command. The USB interface outputs the HID command to an external host which generates an image in response to the HID command. Then the display module displays the image.

  • Patent number: 8488002
    Abstract: A testing apparatus for a television system is provided. The testing apparatus includes an analysis module, a signal generating module, a transmitting module, a receiving module, and a judging module. The analysis module receives and analyzes a control signal to generate an analysis result. The signal generating module generates a test signal according to the analysis result. The transmitting module transmits the test signal to the television system. The receiving module receives a response signal from the television system. The judging module judges whether the response signal correctly corresponds to the test signal.

  • Patent number: 6734998
    Abstract: A test image has a black bias on a white background. The black bias is a line set at about 45 degrees to the scan lines of a scanner. Boundary points of the scanned bias are found. A regression line is calculated from the positions of the boundary points. Differences in the positions of adjacent boundary points, together with the slope reciprocal of the regression line, are used to determine error values. The error values are compared with a gate value to determine if there are any occurrences of scan line misalignment.
