Description

  The present invention relates to an output data control device that is applied to a two-body system having a configuration in which a controller unit and an output unit composed of a display and a speaker are separated and outputting video and audio data to the output unit, and an output The present invention relates to a data control method and a computer program. More specifically, the present invention relates to an output data control apparatus, an output data control method, and a computer program that can generate and output optimum output data corresponding to various types of output units.

  2.

There are many things. By adopting such another configuration, a lighter display is realized, and the display can be set as a wall-mounted type, for example. In addition, the convenience of the operation of the user who operates the controller at a position away from the display is improved.

  Such a general configuration of a video equipment system having two block configurations of an output unit (panel unit) and a controller unit (box unit) such as a two-body type plasma television or liquid crystal television has an image between two blocks. Connected with dedicated cable (5-10m) for communication of audio data and control data, and has a configuration that enables communication between microcomputers mounted on each block, output data consisting of images and audio The controller section (box section) performs the main adjustment relating to the output, and the output section (panel section) outputs via a display and a speaker.

  However, for example, there are various sizes and resolutions of the display constituting the output unit. In order to execute control of output data adapted to these various displays, the controller unit (box unit) needs to have a control configuration that matches the mode of the output unit (panel unit). As a result, the output unit (panel unit) and the controller unit (box unit) are manufactured and managed in a one-to-one relationship.

  Under these circumstances, if the specifications of the output unit (panel unit) change or the sales of a specific display grows or falls, new manufacturing of the controller unit (box unit) In addition, it is necessary to carry out disposal processing and the like, which causes difficulty in inventory adjustment, and as a result, increases the cost of the product.

  The controller unit (box unit) is required to perform adjustment of output data suitable for various manufacturers' displays, various types of displays such as plasma displays and liquid crystal displays. The company's plasma display requires different output data adjustment processing even if the screen size is the same.

  Therefore, it is required to manufacture a controller unit (box unit) that performs output data adjustment that differs for each manufacturer, for each display type, and for each size, which causes high costs.

  For example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 are disclosed as conventional examples disclosing a video system separated into an output section (panel section) and a controller section (box section).

  Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-133867 generates data corresponding to screens having different aspect ratios of standard and wide with one image display control device as a screen size, and can handle any screen having an output unit. A system is disclosed.

  Further, Patent Document 2 shows a configuration for executing output data signal adjustment adapted to the CRT inch size, for example, adjustment of the luminance signal level, and based on the CRT inch size information connected to the control unit. A configuration is disclosed in which output data corresponding to the configuration of the output unit is generated by processing such as changing the signal level and outputting.

However, the technique described in Patent Document 1 shows a configuration for changing output data based only on the screen size, and does not disclose a configuration for executing different output data adjustment for each manufacturer, display type, and size. Absent. Patent document 2 only discloses a configuration for executing signal adjustment processing of output data adapted to the inch size of a CRT, and discloses a configuration for performing different output data adjustment for each manufacturer, display type, and size. It is not a thing.

  As described above, in the present invention, the output unit (panel unit) side that outputs either image data or audio data and the controller unit (box unit) configured separately from the output unit are provided. In the body type system, the output unit corresponding adjustment parameters corresponding to multiple manufacturers, display types, sizes, resolutions, etc. are stored in the memory, and the controller unit (box unit) receives the output unit information from the output unit (panel unit). Based on this, the configuration of the connection output unit is detected, the corresponding parameter is selected from the output unit corresponding adjustment parameter stored in the memory, and the adjustment process is executed in each adjustment device. Therefore, the image size adjustment, the image quality adjustment, and the sound quality are performed. Any of the adjustments can be adjustment data suitable for the panel connected to the output, ie the display. The data output of the highest quality is possible in accordance with the output unit can be applied in apparatus having a video signal, apparatus for performing the processing of the audio signal, or a display that performs an output based on the video signal processing, a speaker, and the like.

It is a figure explaining the structure of the 2 body type system which consists of an output part (panel part) and a controller part (box part), and an output data adjustment part. It is a figure explaining the detailed structure of the output data adjustment part in the two-body system which consists of an output part (panel part) and a controller part (box part). It is a figure which shows the specific example of an output part corresponding | compatible adjustment parameter. It is a flowchart explaining the process sequence in the output data control apparatus of this invention.
