OSD (on screen display) cursor display method and OSD image display apparatus

Abstract

An OSD cursor display method and an OSD image display apparatus are provided, wherein an OSD source transmits OSD cursor display data to a display apparatus, said display apparatus stores the received OSD cursor display data in a memory, said OSD source transmits only cursor display location information to said display apparatus, and said display apparatus displays the cursor display data stored in said memory at the received cursor display location. Therefore, since the OSD source only transmits OSD cursor data initially, and thereafter transmits only cursor display location information to the display apparatus, the amount of data in transmission is reduced and thus the processing speed becomes faster, and therefore the location moving time in moving a cursor on a screen becomes faster and the movement of the cursor becomes smooth.
