Baseband video data transmission device and reception device, and transceiver system

A reception device configured to receive signals containing a video signal, the reception device comprising:

• a storage configured to store information regarding a video specification that is supported including first information indicating whether intermittent reception of receiving the video signal is possible at a timing that causes certain number of frames to be intermittent;
• a receiver configured to receive signals containing a video signal formed from baseband video data;
• a frame memory in which the video signal received by the receiver is written;
• and
• a synchronization signal generator configured to generate a first timing at which the video signal is written in the frame memory from the receiver, and a second timing at which the video signal is read out from the frame memory, wherein
• the receiver provides, to the synchronization signal generator and when an enable signal indicating the present video signal is to be enabled and second information indicating that transmission of the video signal will not resume unless the video signal is updated are superimposed during a blanking period of the received video signal, information indicating that the intermittent reception is executed, and
• the synchronization signal generator generates, in accordance with the information indicating that the intermittent reception is executed, the first timing that prevents writing the video signal in the frame memory as update until the receiver receives the updated video signal.

A transmission/reception system comprising:

• a transmission device configured to transmit signals containing a video signal, and a reception device configured to receive signals containing the video signal,
• the transmission device including:
• a controller configured to perform a control of reading information held by the reception device regarding a video specification that is supported by the reception device, and transmitting the video signal that is supported by the reception device;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit the video signal in a form of baseband video data, wherein
• when the reception device is in an output mode in which an identical image is extendedly shown in a predetermined number of multiple frames,
• the controller reads, from the information regarding the video specification, first information indicating whether the reception device is capable of intermittent reception of receiving the video signal at a timing that causes certain number of frames to be intermittent, and, when the reception device is capable of the intermittent reception, performs a control of multiplexing an enable signal indicating the present video signal is to be enabled and second information indicating that transmission of the video signal will not resume unless the video signal is updated, onto a blanking period of the updated video signal, and
• the transmitter, after transmitting the updated video signal, does not resume transmission of the video signal unless the video signal is updated, and
• the reception device including:
• a storage configured to store information regarding a video specification that is supported including the first information;
• a receiver configured to receive signals containing the video signal transmitted from the transmission device;
• a frame memory in which the video signal received by the receiver is written;
• and
• a synchronization signal generator configured to generate a first timing at which the video signal is written in the frame memory from the receiver and a second timing at which the video signal is read out from the frame memory, wherein
• the receiver provides, to the synchronization signal generator and when an enable signal indicating the present video signal is to be enabled and the second information are superimposed during a blanking period of the received video signal, information indicating that the intermittent reception is executed, and
• the synchronization signal generator generates, in accordance with the information indicating that the intermittent reception is executed, the first timing that prevents writing the video signal in the frame memory as update until the receiver receives the updated video signal.
