    摘要: A method for storing status information prior to shutdown of a video monitor due to a failure. An indication of an operational parameter is obtained. Based on the indication, it is determined if the failure occurs warranting shutdown. If the failure occurs, status information is stored in a non-volatile memory for later retrieval during repair. A shutdown sequence is generated to disable the video monitor.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for centering an active video signal on a display screen is described. In one embodiment, the method includes calculating an initial positioning value, which corresponds to an initial position of the active video signal on the display screen. A target positioning value is then determined using linear interpolation. The target positioning value is a rough estimate and provides a big pre-jump of the active video signal from the initial position to a target position, which positions the active video signal near the center of the display screen. A bi-sectional fine tuning technique may then be utilized to center the active video signal on the display screen. This method may be performed using a feedback loop that comprises a microcontroller, a digital signal processor, and an on-screen display circuit.

    摘要: Determining a phase shift compensation for automatically centering an image by measuring a start time delay between a horizontal scan line signal and an active video signal, measuring an end time delay between the active video signal and the horizontal scan line signal, and computing a phase shift for a horizontal flyback signal using the start time delay and the end time delay. A system to center an image on a monitor includes a video processing circuit and a rasterizer. The video processing circuit receives a video signal and measures a start time delay and an end time delay between a horizontal scan line signal and an active video signal. The circuit generates a phase shift used to generate a horizontal flyback signal using the measured start time delay and the end time delay. The rasterizer receives the output of the video processing circuit to control a scanning element.

    摘要: A video display apparatus capable of receiving multiple video input signals and of reducing its power consumption when each of those signals becomes inactive. Power consumption is reduced by selecting from a number of power saving modes. Each power saving mode has an associated recovery time as well as an associated amount of power savings. Recovery time is minimized by determining which of the video input signals is most likely to become active first, assigning a high priority to that signal and selecting a power saving mode based on characteristics of that signal. The likelihood of reactivation of a signal is determined by detecting the absence of normal vertical and/or horizontal synchronization signals.
