Abstract
An object of the present application is to provide the display of motion picture data used in both of analog and digital broadcasts with high picture quality and a common user interface. The above object can be achieved by providing a plurality of picture format converters, a plurality of OSD circuits, and means for storing motion picture data used in an analog broadcast in a common memory.
Claims15
A decoder device, comprising:
- a motion picture data decoder which decodes digital motion picture data to thereby obtain decoded motion picture data;
- a memory which stores the decoded motion picture data therein;
- a first picture format converter which converts the decoded motion picture data into a picture format to thereby obtain first format-converted motion picture data;
- a second picture format converter which converts the decoded motion picture data into a picture format to thereby obtain second format-converted motion picture data;
- and
- an output device which outputs both the first format-converted motion picture data and the second format-converted motion picture data therefrom.
