摘要:
A television receiver includes apparatus for stabilizing an on-screen character display by which the deflection signal source is controlled for operating in a free-running mode, substantially unaffected by signal variations on the sync input line, rather than in a synchronized mode when sync is unreliable or otherwise undesirable. As another feature, the deflection signal source is caused to operate at substantially the same frequency in either mode.

The compression of composite video data is provided in order to reduce bandwidth and thereby increase the amount of bandwidth available for transmission. Composite video signals that include a plurality of fields are received at a selected clock frequency. A first selected number of fields is stored and a second selected number of fields is dropped. In a Frequency Division Multiplexing mode, the data is read out at a fraction of the selected clock frequency corresponding to the stored portion. In a Time Division Multiplexing mode, the data is read out at the selected clock frequency during selected intervals having a duration corresponding to the time it took to receive the stored fields. No data is read out during an interval having a duration equal to the time it took to scan the dropped fields, such time being allocated to the compressed information from other users of the same shared transmission medium.
