Abstract
【解決手段】レシーバ22'は多数の伝送テレビジョン信号を受け、該システムは参照チューナ66及び受信信号検知器60を有し、参照チューナ66は伝送されたテレビジョン信号に一致する参照信号を選局し、該信号検知器60は該レシーバ22'上に表示されるプログラム信号を検知するシステムにおいて、該参照信号から記録/再生装置94の動作モードを決定し、該記録/再生装置からの信号を決定すると共にプログラム信号を決定するためのプロセッサを配置する。
【選択図】図3A
Description
その結果VBI補助コードがビデオから取り除かれた後、チューナによりCRTに送られたビデオを送信するプローブを通常要求するものであり、非現実的なものとなる。
Solarによる米国特許4764808及びGallによる米国特許4847685は改良された同期成分計測システムを提供するものであるが、Curreyの試みの基本的な欠点を全て克服するものではない。
