Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an audio/video platform(AVP) which performs as a master controller to interconnect other AV devices and is capable of integrated control of all AV devices connected to the AVP. SOLUTION: The audio/video platform(AVP) for a system which processes a video signal is provided with a digital communication port for transfer of a control signal and a data signal between the AVP and a first video device, an analog video communication port for transfer of a video signal between a second video device and the AVP, an infrared transmitter for transmission of an infrared command, a digital video communication port which transmits a control command to the first video device through the digital communication port, and a control processor which is connected to the infrared transmitter to transmit a control command to the second video device through the infrared transmitter.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a video display device which can display and use video for a touch panel and video for others without spoiling video that a user mainly views. SOLUTION: A display screen of an LCD 211 has a main display area 211M and an additional display area 211S vertically successively to the main display area 211M. In the main display area 211M, video with a picture frame based upon the broadcasting standards such as 3:4 and 16:9 aspect ratios, etc., is fully displayed. In the additional display area 211S other than the main display area, information regarding operation on the touch panel, information regarding video providing channels, and information obtained via a communication network are displayed.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus that displays at least two modes on a display device. SOLUTION: The present invention relates to an apparatus including at least two modes having an interactive application mode and a television program mode, and includes: a television program signal receiver; an interactive application signal receiver; means for switching between the television program mode and the interactive mode being active in the display device; means to receive remote control signals from a remote control device having a go-back key for generating a go-back signal, wherein, when the television program mode is active in the display device, upon receipt of the go-back signal, the mode switching means is activated causing the interactive application mode to be active in the display device.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a user interface method for activating a clickable object and a reproducing device for providing its method. SOLUTION: The method is the user interface method including (a) a stage 202 for highlighting the clickable object included in a moving image while the moving image is reproduced and (b) a stage 204 for activating the highlighted clickable object in which the (a) stage and/or the (b) stage make the clickable object operate when a CLICKABLE OBJECT button, separately arranged at a user input device, is held down. Especially, in the (a) stage and the (b) stage, one object is chosen by moving the highlight among at least one clickable object by pushing the CLICKABLE OBJECT button once, pushing the CLICKABLE OBJECT button twice, using a menu selection method or using a common button.

Abstract:
A picture display system having two display devices and a base device for supplying picture signals to one of the display devices and capable of having bidirectional communication with the other display device is disclosed. The picture display system (1) is made up by a mobile display device (100), a base device (200) and a large format display device (300). The base device (200) sends picture signals to the display device (100) and to the large format display device (300). On a display image surface of the mobile display device (100), there is provided a touch panel for detecting the contact position contacted by a user for displaying a remote-control panel RP accepting an operating input from the user on the display image surface. An operating signal conforming to a display item of the remote-control panel RP, displayed at a contact position, detected by the touch panel, is generated and transmitted by wireless communication to the base device (200). This base device (200) selects the picture signals, supplied from the external inputting devices (400), as a supply source of picture signals, responsive to an operating signal, to transmit the so selected picture signals to the large format display device (300).
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To protect the copyright of content to be communicated between tow displays, and to improve operability for the two displays. SOLUTION: A signal from a tuner 22a is outputted to a primary display 2. An analog signal from a tuner 22b is digitally compressed, is subjected to encryption processing and transmitted to a secondary display 3 by radio LAN, and is displayed on an LCD 46 of the secondary display 3. An output of a digital tuner 23 is displayed on the primary display 2. A video signal of 480I is transmitted to the secondary display 3. A signal inputted via the Internet is subjected to decoding processing, and is transmitted to the primary display 2. The signal is transmitted in a compressed state without performing decoding processing to the secondary display 3, and is subjected to decoding processing in the secondary display 3.
