Description

How to choose VSI's OSD language

The present invention relates to a method for selecting a language of an OSD screen in VSI for Europe, and in particular, a user outputs a menu screen for language selection of an OSD screen using a language selection key provided on one side of the remote controller. This allows the user to quickly and easily select the language of the OS screen using the remote control.

1 shows a circuit block diagram of a VSI system having a general OSD function.

As described herein, a reproduction / recording unit 1 for reproducing or recording a video signal and an audio signal from a tape, and detecting and outputting the video and audio signals reproduced from the reproduction / recording unit, respectively, and controlling the video signal. A video / audio signal processor 2 for outputting pulse and DC envelope signals to the controller and simultaneously modulating the signals to be recorded on the tape and supplying them to the playback / recorder; a command input unit 5 for interface with a user; A control unit including a microcomputer that controls each part of the device such as a power on / off operation and a deck operation related to recording / reproducing by a key input signal selected by a user, and checks a sensor input unit to detect an operation state of each part of the deck. It consists of (4).

The system further includes an OSD processing unit 3 for outputting a character screen for an On Screen Display (hereinafter referred to as 0SD) by generating a corresponding character by the controller 4, and a deck controlled by the controller. And a sensor input unit 6 for reading an operation state of the deck unit or the presence / absence of a recording tab, and transmitting an arbitrary detection signal according to each state to the control unit.

The OSD function of the screen interactive menu type in the system enables the user to perform various setting operations such as time setting, reservation recording, channel preset, and the like. An example of such OSD menu type is as follows.

When selecting No. 3 in Table 1, the following screen is output.

When the automatic channel matching is selected in Table 2, the channel number is continuously changed from 02 to 69, and only the channel having the broadcast is automatically stored, and when the memory is completed, the lower number channel is selected among the stored channels.

On the other hand, in the above system, if the user converts the RF modulator into arm or secam mode, the user enters the arm and secam selection item from the OSD menu and selects a predetermined mode. The RF modulator is designed to generate logic 1 or 0 output logic in the RF modulator to output the mode.

However, in the conventional VSI, there is a problem in that the menu is difficult to understand when the OS menu screen that is initially outputted when the language is selected using the OS screen is set to a language that the user does not know. It was difficult to avoid the hassle of the selection work because it was to go to the OS menu screen to go to the item and select the language.

The present invention is to solve the above problems, by allowing the user to output a menu screen for language selection of the OS screen using the language selection key provided on one side of the remote control, the user using the remote control The object of the present invention is to provide a method of selecting an OSD language of VSIAL that allows the user to select a language of the OSD screen conveniently and quickly.

According to the present invention, an OSD language selection method of a VSI is provided in a VRS system further comprising a language selection key on one side of a remote controller, the method comprising: determining whether a language selection key is input by a user, and determining the language. Outputting a language selection menu screen through the OS screen if there is an input of a selection key; and then determining whether the language selected by the user is "English" and if the selected language is not English, whether the selected language is "French" again. Determining whether the selected language is "Japanese" again if the selected language is not French, and if it is determined that the selected language is "English", outputs an OSD screen in English and the selected language is "French If it is determined that the "OS" screen in French is displayed, and if the selected language is "Japanese", it outputs the OSD screen in Japanese. In that it comprises the features.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 2 is a circuit block diagram of a VSI system for carrying out the present invention, which illustrates a case where a remote controller is applied as a key input means.

Here, the language selection key 11, the key input unit 12, the light emitting unit 14, and the like are connected to the microcomputer 13 of the remote controller 10 controlling the operation of the VSI.

The light receiver 31, the OS 34, the pyramid 33, and the like are connected to the system control unit 32 on the VSI set 30 side.

First, when the user presses the language selection key 11, the corresponding key button signal is input to the microcomputer 13 of the remote controller 10, and at this time, the light emitting unit 14 emits light by the control signal of the microcomputer.

In this way, the light signal emitted from the light emitting unit 14 is received by the light receiving unit 31 on the VSI set 30 side. At this time, when the light signal of the corresponding key button is received by the light receiving unit 31, the The system control unit 32 determines this and controls the OS unit 34 and the like.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a language selection method according to the present invention.

As referred to herein, first, the system control unit 32 determines whether there is an input of the language selection key 11 by the user through the optical signal received by the light receiving unit 31 of the VSI set 30 (step). 110).

If it is determined that the language selection key 11 has been input, the control signal is sent to the OS unit 34 to output a language selection menu screen on the OS screen (step 120).

Accordingly, the user can select a language. At this time, the system controller 32 first determines whether the language selected by the user is “English” (step 130).

If the language selected by the user is not English, it is again determined whether the language selected by the user is "French" (step 140).

At this time, if the selected language is not French, it is again determined whether the language selected by the user is "Japanese" (step 150).

Of course, in addition to English, French, and Japanese, the language can be selected as the item of the selectable language.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the language selected by the user is "English", the OSD screen in English is output (step 160).

If the language selected by the user is determined to be "French," the ODS screen in French is output (step 170). If the language selected by the user is determined as "Japanese," the OSD screen in Japanese is output. (Step 180).

According to the present invention, by using a language selection key provided on one side of the remote control, the user immediately outputs a menu screen for language selection of the OSD screen so that the user can select an item of a desired language, thereby allowing the user to conveniently use the remote control. The advantage is that you can quickly and quickly select the language of the OS screen.

In addition, according to the present invention, when the user selects the language of the OS screen, the menu screen in the selected language is directly output, so that there is a unique effect that is convenient to use the OS menu screen in the language of the country.
