Fig. 5 illustrates the example that sends various transmission data at three TMDS channel #0, the #1 and the #2 that send in (period) at interval by HDMI.Attention: in TMDS channel #0, #1 and #2, Fig. 5 illustrates the interval of the various transmission data in the situation of progressive (progressive) image of 720 * 480 pixels on wherein transmission level * vertical direction.
There are three different intervals in the video field (video field) that sends data and send in three TMDS channel #0, #1 by HDMI and #2 according to the type that sends data therein: video data is (video data period), data slice (data slice period) and control interval (controlling the period) at interval at interval.
At this, the video field is the interval to the rising edge of next vertical synchronizing signal of the rising edge (movable along) from certain vertical synchronizing signal at interval, and blank period (level blank) of the level that is divided into, vertical blank period (vertical blank) and motion video be (motion video) at interval, and wherein motion video is by blank period of level and vertical blank period are removed the period that is obtained from the period of video field at interval.
Video data is distributed to motion video at interval at interval.In this video data interval, transmission is with the data of the valid pixel (active pixel) of 720 pixels * 480 lines of the view data of a screen picture of non-compressed state formation.
Blank period of level and vertical blank period are distributed in data slice interval and control interval.At the data slice interval with in the control interval, send auxiliary data (auxiliary data).
Particularly, data slice is distributed at interval the part of blank period of level and vertical blank period.In the data slice interval, send the grouping that does not relate to the data of control in the auxiliary data, such as for example voice data.
Other parts of blank period of the level of will distributing in the control interval and vertical blank period.In the control interval, send the data that relate to control in the auxiliary data, for example, vertical synchronizing signal and horizontal-drive signal, control grouping or the like.
At this, according to existing HDMI, the frequency of the pixel clock that is sent by TMDS clock channel is 165Mhz for example, and in this example, and the transmission rate of data slice at interval is near 500Mbps.

Description described in now, providing as mentioned, that will in the blank period of view data (picture signal), insert content identification information by the HDMI source 53 of HD register 41.
Fig. 7 illustrates the data structure of above-mentioned AVI (auxiliary video information) the InfoFrame grouping of placing in the data slice interval.In HDMI, can use AVI InfoFrame grouping to send the information that is associated of relevant image to aggregating apparatus from source apparatus.
In the present embodiment, as in the data structure of illustrated AVI InfoFrame from Fig. 7 as seen, content identification information graduation ground (hierarchically) is placed in 2 bits of the CT1 of 1 bit of ITC of the 6th byte (data byte 3) and Eight characters joint (data byte 5) and CT0.
As the ITC of 1 Bit data is whether be used to discern content be dynamic image content.At this, if ITC=0, then this to indicate this content be common dynamic menu content, and if ITC=1, then this to indicate this content be not common dynamic menu content.Is effective as the CT1 of 2 Bit datas and CT0 when the ITC=1.In other words, when judging that based on ITC this content is not common dynamic menu content, then further uses CT1 and CT0.
In the present embodiment, as in Fig. 8 finding, CT1 and CT0 make can discern four kinds of contents: content of text, photo (still frame) content, movie contents and game content.Particularly, when CT1=0 and CT0=0, its instruction content is a content of text.When CT1=0 and CT0=1, its instruction content is a photo content.When CT1=1 and CT0=0, its instruction content is a movie contents.When CT1=1 and CT0=1, its instruction content is a game content.
At this, content of text means popular IT (information technology) content.Photo content means the content of still frame.Movie contents means the content of film or home videos.Game content means the content of PC or game console video.
Now, describe the example of the control and treatment of wherein using control section 64 content identification information, display unit 42 with reference to the flow chart of Fig. 9, wherein said content identification information comprises above described 1bit data (ITC) and 2 Bit datas (CT1 and CT0).
Control section 64 at first begins control and treatment and then processing is advanced to step ST2 at step ST1.At step ST2, control section 64 judges whether satisfy ITC=1.If do not satisfy ITC=1, then control section 64 is identified as the data of common dynamic menu content with the view data that is received, and carries out common dynamic menu at step ST3 and handle.
Particularly, control section 64 control chroma decoding device 62a set the color space that is used for dynamic menu, for example, and the sRGB color space.In addition, the control section 64 control DRC 62b of portion carry out the picture quality improvement processing.And control section 64 control booster 62c emphasize that (emphasize) high fdrequency component is to carry out emphasizing contour.In addition, control section 64 control panel driver 62d carry out common gamma correction.In addition, control section 64 controls 63b backlight shows common colour temperature.
When judging ITC=1 at step ST2, then control section 64 is advanced to step ST4 with processing.At step ST4, control section 64 judges whether satisfy CT1=0.Then, if satisfy CT1=0, then control section 64 judges whether satisfy CT0=0 at step ST5.
If satisfy CT0=0, then control section 64 picks out the data that received and relates to content of text, and handles at step ST6 execution contexts (text).In this example, the operation of control section 64 control booster 62c makes booster 62c not carry out the emphasizing contour of emphasizing high fdrequency component.Attention: be similar to the common dynamic menu of above describing and handle, control section 64 control chroma decoding device 62a, the 62b of DRC portion, panel driver 62d and 63b backlight.
In this way, when the view data that is received relates to content of text, do not carry out emphasizing contour, can prevent the situation that is difficult to read by the character that emphasizing contour causes by control booster 62c is feasible.
On the other hand, if do not satisfy CT0=0 at step ST5, then control section 64 picks out the view data that is received and relates to photo content, and carries out photo (photo) at step ST7 and handle.In this example, the feasible color space that can select be used for still frame by chroma decoding device 62a of operation of control section 64 control chroma decoding device 62a, for example, Adobe (trade mark of Adobe) rgb color space.Attention: be similar to the common dynamic menu of above describing and handle, the control section 64 control DRC 62b of portion, booster 62c, panel driver 62d and 63b backlight.
In this way, when the view data that is received relates to photo content, if booster 62c is set at the color space that is used for still frame with color space, then can use the still frame color space advantageously to show image based on the view data of photo (still frame) content.
On the other hand, if do not satisfy CT1=0 at step ST4, then control section 64 judges whether satisfy CT0=0 at step ST8.
If satisfy CT0=0, then control section 64 picks out the view data that is received and relates to movie contents and carry out film (film) at step ST9 and handle.In this example, the gamma correction of control section 64 control panel driver 62d is with the grade (gradation) of (raise) black-side that raises and control 63b backlight and reduce colour temperature.Attention: be similar in above-mentioned common dynamic menu is handled control section 64 control chroma decoding device 62a, the 62b of DRC portion and booster 62c.
In this way, if the view data that is received relates to movie contents, then the grade of panel driver 62d rising black-side and the colour temperature that reduces 63b backlight make and can show the image that meets movie contents.
On the other hand, if do not satisfy CT0=0 at step ST8, then control section 64 picks out the view data that is received and relates to game content and carry out recreation (recreation) processing at step ST10.In this example, the operation of the control panel 64 control DRC 62b of portion make the 62b of DRC portion not carries out image improve and handle.Attention: be similar in above-mentioned common dynamic menu is handled control section 64 control chroma decoding device 62a, booster 62c, panel driver 62d and 63b backlight.
In this way, if the view data that is received relates to game content, then owing to prevented that the 62b of DRC portion from carrying out picture quality improvement and handling, can alleviate (moderate) picture quality improvement and handle the delay of the image cause, and can prevent displacement (displacement) caused strange (unfamiliar) sense between sound and the image about sound.
Now, describe another example of the control and treatment of wherein using control section 64 content identification information, display unit 42 with reference to the flow chart of Figure 10, wherein said content identification information comprises above described 1bit data (ITC) and 2 Bit datas (CT1 and CT0).In Figure 10, represent the step corresponding with those steps of Fig. 9 by identical reference marker.
Control section 64 at first begins control and treatment and then processing is advanced to step ST1a at step ST1.At step ST1a, control section 64 judges that the pattern that sets is any in automatic mode, video (dynamic menu) pattern, photo (still frame) pattern, Text Mode, film mode and the game mode.
Attention: on unshowned user's operation part, be equipped with control section 64, and the user can operate this user's operating portion execution pattern of assigning to and sets.Figure 11 shows the screen picture of the GUI about mode initialization (graphic user interface) that shows on liquid crystal panel 63a.The user can set the pattern of expectation to press the button that is used for automatic mode, video (dynamic menu) pattern, photo (still frame) pattern, Text Mode, film mode or game mode that shows on the GUI screen picture by operating this user's operation part.
If in step ST1a place's setting pattern is automatic mode, then control section 64 is advanced to step ST2 with processing, and processing in the flow chart that step ST2 control section 64 is carried out and above described with reference to Fig. 9 or the like is although omitted identical detailed description.On the other hand, if the pattern of setting at step ST1a place is a kind of in video mode, picture mode, Text Mode, film mode and the game mode, then control section 64 is advanced to step ST1b with processing.At step ST1b, control section 64 is carried out the processing (dynamic menu processing, text-processing, photo processing, film are handled or game processing) (with reference to ST3, ST6, ST7, ST9 or ST10) corresponding to the pattern of setting.
In the flow chart of Figure 10 in the example of illustrated control and treatment, when the setting pattern is automatic mode, be similar in the example of illustrated control and treatment in the flow chart of Fig. 9, the view data (picture signal) that is received carried out the optimization process of the type that depends on content.In addition, in the flow chart of Figure 10 in the example of illustrated control and treatment, if the pattern that sets is a kind of in video (dynamic menu) pattern, photo (still frame) pattern, Text Mode, film mode and the game mode, then the view data (picture signal) that is received is carried out the processing that is suitable for the pattern of setting forcibly.
As mentioned above, in the AV system 40 shown in Fig. 1, insert content identification information ITC, CT1 and CT0 in the AVI InfoFrame grouping that place in the HDMI source 53 of HD register 41 in blank period of view data (data slice is at interval), and by three TMDS channel #0, #1 and #2, with the form of differential signal to the HDMI of display unit 42 receiver 61 transmission view data.Correspondingly, display unit 42 can content-based identifying information discern the view data that is received content type and view data carried out the optimization process of depending on content type.
In addition, in the AV system 40 shown in Fig. 1, the content identification information of being inserted in the blank period of view data by the HDMI source 53 of HD register 41 is to be formed by the data I TC of 1 bit and the data CT1 and the CT2 of 2 bits, whether the data I TC of described 1 bit is used to discern content is common dynamic menu content, uses the data CT1 and the CT2 of described 2 bits when judging that content is not the dynamic menu content.In this example, if the transmission frequency of common dynamic menu content is very high, then only carry out the determination processing of the content type of the data I TC that wherein uses 1 bit on the layer (layer) that is placed on higher level continually, and make the load (load) that alleviates determination processing by the control section 64 of display unit 42 possibility that becomes.
Attention: in the above-described embodiment, as content identification information, the data CT1 that places 2 bits at the data I TC that places 1 bit on the layer of higher level on the layer at lower grade makes with CT0 and can discern five kinds of different contents, comprises common dynamic menu content, content of text, photo content, movie contents and game content.Yet the quantity by the data bit in the layer that increases each grade, the quantity or the like that increases the layer of grade can also be discerned the different content of greater number.In addition, the classification of common dynamic menu content, content of text, photo content, movie contents and these five kinds of different contents of game content is examples rather than is subject to this.

The definition of illustrated color space information among Figure 20 and quantizing range information is stored among the built-in ROM 151a of the control section 151 of video camera 41, and when in the view data that will send, inserting color space information and quantizing range information by HDMI source 160 with reference to them.In addition, the definition of illustrated color space information among Figure 20 and quantizing range information is stored among the built-in ROM 171a of the control section 171 of television receiver 142, and when color space information of in the view data that decipher is received by HDMI receiver 173, inserting and quantizing range information with reference to them.
Now, the control section of describing wherein by television receiver 142 with reference to the flow chart of Figure 21 171 uses content identification information, color space information, the example of the control and treatment of quantizing range information or the like, wherein said content identification information comprise above described 1bit data (CA) and 2 Bit datas (CT1 and CT0).
Control section 171 at first begins control and treatment and then processing is advanced to step ST12 at step ST11.At step ST12, control section 171 judges whether satisfy ITC=1.If do not satisfy ITC=1, then control section 171 picks out the view data that is received and relates to common dynamic menu content, and carries out common dynamic menu at step ST13 and handle.
Particularly, control section 171 control chroma decoding device 177a make and can obtain wherein color space by the color space information of the definition decipher of dynamic menu.In addition, the control section 171 control DRC 177b of portion handle so that carry out picture quality improvement.In addition, control section 171 control booster 177c are so that emphasize that high fdrequency component is carried out emphasizing contour and carry out the processing that enlarges Color Range when color space is sRGB.In addition, control section 171 control panel driver 177d in case when the definition that utilizes dynamic menu comes the decipher quantizing range drive signal in the generating quantification scope and carry out common gamma correction.In addition, control section 171 controls 178b backlight is so that set up common colour temperature.
Satisfy ITC=1 when judging at step ST12, then control section 171 is advanced to step ST14 with processing.At step ST14, control section 171 judges whether satisfy CT1=0.Then, if satisfy CT1=0, then control section 171 judges whether satisfy CT0=0 at step ST15.
When satisfying CT0=0, then control section 171 picks out the data that received and relates to content of text, and handles at step ST16 execution contexts (text).In this example, the operation of control section 171 control booster 177c makes booster 177c can not carry out the emphasizing contour of emphasizing high fdrequency component.Attention: in other respects, control section 171 is carried out the control that is similar in the common dynamic menu processing of above describing.
In this way, when the view data that is received relates to content of text, carry out emphasizing contour, can prevent to read the character situation of difficult that becomes by what emphasizing contour caused by preventing booster 177c.
On the other hand, if do not satisfy CT0=0 at step ST15, then control section 171 picks out the view data that is received and relates to photo content (content of still frame), and carries out photo (photo) at step ST17 and handle.In this example, the operation of control section 171 control chroma decoding device 177a makes and can set up the color space that the definition that wherein utilizes still frame comes the decipher color space information.In addition, control section 171 control panel driver 177d make the definition that utilizes still frame therein come the interior drive signal that generates of quantizing range of decipher quantizing range information.About in other respects, control section 171 is carried out and is similar to the control of the common dynamic menu of above describing in handling.
Attention: although panel controller 177d comprises above OSD (showing on the screen) the display part 177e that does not describe, and control section 171 can control OSD display part 177e make for example on the screen of liquid crystal panel 178a, show as shown in figure 22 content and the type of color space.In the demonstration example of Figure 22, the type of " photo " instruction content is a still frame, and the type of indication color space is " Adobe ".This OSD as the type of the type of the content just described and color space shows that not only can be applied to still frame can also be applied to other guide.The user shows from OSD can easily understand the type of content and the type of color space.
In this way, when the view data that is received relates to photo content, by impelling booster 177c that color space is set at the color space that is used for still frame, then can advantageously show image by the color space that is used for still frame based on the view data of photo (still frame) content.
On the other hand, if do not satisfy CT1=0 at step ST14, then control section 171 judges whether satisfy CT0=0 at step ST18.
If satisfy CT0=0, then control section 171 picks out the view data that is received and relates to movie contents, and carries out film (film) at step ST19 and handle.In this example, the gamma correction of control section 171 control panel driver 177d is with the layer of the grade of rising black-side and control 177b backlight and reduce colour temperature.Attention: in other respects, control section 171 is carried out the control that is similar in the common dynamic menu processing of above describing.
In this way, if the view data that is received relates to movie contents, then, can carry out the demonstration of the image that is suitable for movie contents by by the grade of panel driver 177d rising black-side and reduce the colour temperature of 178b backlight.
On the other hand, if do not satisfy CT0=0 at step ST18, then control section 171 picks out the view data that is received and relates to game content, and carries out recreation (recreation) processing at step ST20.In this example, the operation of the control panel 171 control DRC 177b of portion make the 177b of DRC portion not carries out image improve and handle.Attention: in other respects, control section 171 is carried out the control that is similar in the common dynamic menu processing of above describing.
In this way, when the view data that is received relates to game content, make that by the control DRC 177d of portion can not carry out picture quality improvement handles, can alleviate the picture quality improvement processing and cause the delay of image, and can prevent the caused unfamiliar sensation of displacement between sound and the image about sound.Now, describe another example of wherein being used the control and treatment of content identification information, color space information, quantizing range information or the like by the control section 171 of television receiver 142 with reference to the flow chart of Figure 23, wherein said content identification information comprises above described 1bit data (CA) and 2 Bit datas (CT1 and CT0).In Figure 23, represent the step corresponding with those steps of Figure 21 by identical reference marker.
