Abstract
A system and method that repeat video images in a deinterlacing system. The method comprises detecting a signal requesting an input video image be repeated and determining the desired number of repetitions. The input video image may then be processed to generate an output video image and the output video image may be repeated the desired number of repetitions. The input video images following the repeated image may be held until the repeating is completed, and may then be processed and displayed. Repeating the video image may be utilized to achieve different playback modes such as, for example, slow motion, pause, and video rate conversion.
Claims18
A method that repeats video images in a deinterlacer, the method comprising:
- detecting a request to repeat a first video image input into the deinterlacer;
- processing the first video image to produce a corresponding output video image;
- holding input video images following the first video image in the deinterlacer;
- displaying the output video image according to the request to repeat;
- and
- processing and displaying the video images following the first video image.
A system that repeats video images in a deinterlacer, the system comprising:
- at least one processor capable of detecting a request to repeat a first video image input into the deinterlacer;
- the at least one processor capable of processing the first video image to produce a corresponding output video image;
- the at least one processor capable of holding input video images following the first video image in the deinterlacer;
- the at least one processor capable of displaying the output video image according to the request to repeat;
- and
- the at least one processor capable of processing and displaying the video images following the first video image.
