Abstract

PURPOSE:To output a selected video image and subtitles on a single screen by extracting and modulating a subtitle signal superimposed on a video signal, mixing it with a video signal selected by the other switch and outputting them together on a display device. CONSTITUTION:A second external video signal input terminal 22, first and second switches 23 and 24 separately selecting the received video signal and any one of first and second external video signals inputted from input terminals 5 and 22, and a subtitle demodulation circuit 25 extracting and demodulating the subtitle signal superimposed on the inputted video signal, are provided. A microcomputer 26 controls the selection operation of the switches 23 and 24 based on a given command. A mixing circuit 27 mixes the subtitle signal outputted from the subtitle signal demodulation circuit 25 with the prescribed position of the video signal selected by the switch 23 and outputs them to a video signal processing circuit 5.
