The invention is applied to video processing equipment, and is particularly suitable for the requirement of a clinical operating room on multi-picture video processing equipment. At present, there are two main processing methods for the multi-channel video management system: the first is to adopt a computer to process images; the second is that the front stage adopts a video processing chip and the rear end adopts an FPGA chip for splicing processing. The first method for processing video signals by adopting a computer comprises the following steps: the first stage collects multi-channel image signals through a plurality of video capture cards, the second stage performs image zooming, splicing and the like through a CPU (central processing unit), and because the CPU has limited performance, the low-resolution image signals can be generally processed, but the video signal source for processing large data streams of more than or equal to 8M is processed, because the CPU has limited performance bandwidth and insufficient memory, the video signal source cannot be normally processed, the frame frequency is very slow or delayed, and many other functions cannot be realized, so that the requirement of a clinical operating room on video processing equipment cannot be met at all. The second way is: in recent years, video splicing processing is realized by utilizing two-stage video processing, usually, a first stage adopts a special video processing chip for processing, and a second stage adopts FGPA for video signal splicing processing, but the method is that the two-stage video processing needs to use a memory, so that the superimposed delay time is very high, the general delay time is more than 3 frames, and many functions cannot be realized, and only the method can be used in occasions with single function requirements.
The invention is provided for solving the problems in the prior art, and the invention has the advantages that firstly, the invention can process the multi-channel input and output video signals, the delay time is reduced to the maximum extent, and the delay time of the video processing can completely reach the neglect state for the sensory system of the human body; secondly, the purpose of remotely controlling the equipment is realized by accessing the external Internet and logging in a WEB interface; thirdly, a set of mouse and keyboard are accessed to achieve a plurality of input video signal source devices of transparent transmission control (KVM); fourthly, the video signal source with multiple paths (two or more paths) is output and correspondingly connected with a plurality of displays, appointed multiple paths of pictures can be output on any display, or the video signal source with two paths of outputs can be simultaneously connected to an 8M display to be used as a single large display screen to simultaneously display a plurality of pictures. The invention is described below by means of specific examples.

Further, the ping-pong buffer module comprises two memories with the same size and used for reading and writing, namely a memory a and a memory B, wherein when the memory a performs reading, the memory B performs writing, or when the memory B performs reading, the memory a performs writing.
Specifically, the N-channel video signal receiving unit receives video signals output from the video source output device, and assuming that the maximum number of the input N-channel video signals (N is an integer greater than or equal to 1) is 24 channels, the N-channel video signal receiving unit can receive video signals of different formats output by the 24 channels of video sources, and simultaneously uniformly convert the received signals into signals of a standard (here, TMDS signals are taken as an example) format, and through APP software installed on the system control unit, M channels (M is an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to N) video signals required on the human-computer interaction interface are selected and transmitted to the next-stage module for analysis and processing.
