Abstract: A digital video system (2) is disclosed, in which an analog input video signal is sampled at an optimum sample phase (Pnc), and converted to a digital datastream for display. A phase-locked loop (12) generates a plurality of sample clock phases. One of the sample clock phases (Pnc) is applied to an analog-to-digital converter (10), which digitizes the analog input video signal accordingly. Phase alignment circuitry (20) is provided that includes three sample-and-hold circuits (22b, 22c, 22a) that sample the analog input video signal, in parallel with the analog-to-digital converter (10), at times before, at, and after the current sample clock phase used by the analog-to-digital converter (10). The earlier and later sampled voltages are compared against the current sampled voltages to generate difference voltages that are each compared against a threshold voltage (Vthr).

Abstract: In a method and arrangement for determining time skew for a media sequence being conveyed from a sending party to a receiving party over a transmission path, first and second artificial media sequences (310; 306) are generated and added to individual captured media sequences (308; 304), resulting in a first and a second modified media sequence (308/310; 304/306), before being conveyed. At the receiving party, the modified media sequences (308?/310?; 304?306?) are presented and registered, and the artificial media sequences (310?; 306?) are extracted. The time difference between the extracted artificial media sequences (306?; 310?) is calculated as the time skew. Performing time skew determination by adding artificial media sequences to captured media sequences, extracting the artificial media sequences at the receiving party and comparing them can achieve an accurate determination including delays in the capturing and presentation devices.

Abstract: Certain embodiments of the invention disclose a method and system for processing in a non-line locked system. The phase relationship between the sub-carrier signal on consecutive video lines in a video comb filter is determined by synchronizing the two video lines. The synchronization is achieved by aligning the color bursts signals in each of the two video lines. The phase error between the two video lines is determined through the use of a correlation operation. The phase error between consecutive video lines is used to automatically adjust the delay lines used by the video comb filter. The line delay adjustment is provided by changing the values of a variable integer delay and a fractional integer delay. Line delay adjustments reduce the artifacts that occur in the separation of luma and chroma components of a composite video signal.

Abstract: A method of measuring relative channel delay between components of a video signal includes removing a local mean from each of the pair of input component signals and cross-correlating the resulting pair of input component signals. A mean is removed from the cross-correlation and a centroid for the cross-correlation is found within a region bound by nearest zero-crossing to a peak in the cross-correlation. The centroid is then converted to a delay time as a function of sample rate after removing a sample offset. Also a normalized peak value of the cross-correlation provides a figure of merit for the probable accuracy of the delay measurement.

Abstract: Vertical and horizontal sync signals are separated from an NTSC signal inputted from an outside by an external input circuit and a luminance signal (Y) and chrominance signals (B-Y, R-Y) are extracted and converted into RGB data. External RGB data and RGB data formed by a software are processed and the resultant data is supplied to an output converting circuit. The RGB data is converted into analog signals of the luminance signal and chrominance signals of a television signal by using individual system clock signals and outputted. A clock generating circuit generates two kinds of dot clocks which are used for the output converting circuit. The dot clock which is generated from the clock generating circuit and is used for conversion of the luminance signal is phase matched so as to follow a jitter of a horizontal sync signal (H) separated by an external video input circuit.

Abstract: A SLM-based projection display system (10) samples and processes video data for delivery to a spatial light modulator (SLM) (13c), and uses a color wheel (14a) to color the SLM-generated images. A frame memory (13b) provides data to the SLM (13c) and is managed so that, if the phase of the incoming video signal changes, a desired phase relationship between the color wheel position and the data available to the SLM (13c) can be maintained. Also, a motor control unit (15a) uses a horizontal sync signal to generate a drive signal for the color wheel motor (16a), which limits the transient time during phase-changing events, and which provides a means for adjusting the phase of the drive signal.
