Description

Apparatus for format conversion in digital TV}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a format conversion apparatus for converting an image of a main screen into a size of an analog image and outputting it to a VCR output.

Due to the introduction of digital TV (DTV), it is possible to watch 5-6 times of high-definition video compared to the existing analog TV, and the sound quality can also be heard at the CD level. In addition, as a device for storing digital images, a storage device for digital images is currently being developed, or more time is required to be popularized. Therefore, even if digital TV is popularized, it is speculated that the existing analog recording device will be used for the time being, and a function of converting high-quality digital video into existing NTSC or PAL video is required. Also, for the time being, due to the expensive display device, it is estimated that many users receive DTV using conventional analog TV and set-top box (STB). It is expected that the function to use is essential.

In this case, in the case of digital TV images, an aspect ratio of 16: 9 may be considered in most cases, but it may have an aspect ratio of 4: 3 and may have various aspect ratios. On the other hand, the video output for VCR recording needs to have an aspect ratio of 4: 3.

In addition, in keeping with digital image signals having various aspect ratios, display devices of digital TVs and display apparatuses having various aspect ratios have been developed and sold.

Accordingly, an image having various aspect ratios is displayed on a display apparatus having various aspect ratios in various ways, and a method of appropriately displaying a display apparatus having a 4: 3 aspect ratio is required.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a conventional format conversion apparatus, in which a main screen video signal stored in the memory 101 is output to the main screen format converter 102, and a VCR video signal to the VCR format converter 105. As shown in FIG. Is output.

The main picture format conversion unit 102 converts the size of the input image according to the resolution of the display device and outputs the converted image to the color coordinate conversion (CSC) unit 103. The color coordinate conversion unit 103 converts the color coordinates of the format-converted main screen image into color coordinates (for example, RGB or YCbCr) of the display device and outputs the color coordinates to the OSD processing unit 104. The OSD processing unit 104 OSD-processes menu information, caption information, data broadcasting information, and the like on the main screen image converted from the format and color coordinates.

The VCR format converter 105 converts an input video into a video signal for a VCR, that is, a 4: 3 aspect ratio, and outputs the converted video signal.

The conventional format conversion apparatus may use a VCR recording format converter separately, but in this case, there is a disadvantage in that OSD information displayed on the main screen is not provided as the VCR recording screen. In addition, there is another drawback in that the video processing unit for VCR recording has to be complicated to solve this disadvantage.

In addition, since the memory 101 has to separately provide a region for the main screen image and a region for the VCR, there is a problem that the memory size increases.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a format conversion apparatus for converting and outputting the content of the image displayed on the main screen to an analog screen for VCR recording in a video output device for digital TV. Is in.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a format conversion apparatus for configuring a VCR screen by converting the main screen image displayed in 16: 9 or 4: 3 to 4: 3 in outputting the main screen image to the VCR screen. Is in.

2 is a block diagram of a format conversion apparatus according to the present invention, which includes a main screen format conversion unit 201 and a main screen format conversion unit for performing format conversion and aspect ratio conversion for various digital TV images to fit a display device. After converting the color coordinates of the output image of 201, or to improve the image quality, and overlay the data broadcast or user menu necessary for the signal-processed main screen image in the form of OSD, the processor 202, the main screen format conversion unit ( An input selector 203 for selectively outputting one video signal among an output image of the image 201, a color coordinate-converted image output from the post-processing unit 202, and an OSD processed image, and output through the input selector 203 The image cut unit 204 for outputting the image as it is, or cutting out the edge of the image as needed, and outputting the image output from the image cut unit 204 to an existing analog image signal ( For example, it consists of a VCR format conversion unit 205 for format conversion to NTSC / PAL / SECAM.

The post-processor 202 may be configured with various image processing units as needed. In the present invention, a video signal processor (VSP) 202a and an on-screen display (OSD) processor 202b may be used. ), And a color space converter (CSC) 202c.

In the present invention configured as described above, the main picture format converting unit 201 can be used for analog broadcasting signals such as NTSC and PAL, PC signals such as VGA and XGA, which are widely used in the past, or MPEG video of various sizes used in DTV. Convert to the resolution of the display device.

In addition, appropriate filtering is performed according to the resolution of the input image and the resolution of the output image. If necessary, the interlaced scan image is converted into a sequential scan type.

At this time, the main picture format conversion unit 201 performs YCbCr format conversion because most of the images are YCbCr type, and may convert the format to the RGB format for PC input and to YCbCr type to reduce memory usage. You can also perform format conversion.

In addition, the main screen format conversion unit 201 converts an image input at various aspect ratios according to the aspect ratio of the display device.

For example, when the aspect ratio of the input image is 4: 3 and the aspect ratio of the output image is 16: 9, the image is converted by various aspect ratio conversion methods as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3D. 3A illustrates a normal mode in which a 4: 3 aspect ratio image is displayed on a screen having a 16: 9 aspect ratio without format conversion. In this case, parts of both sides of the screen are treated as black or gray. 3B illustrates a wide display mode in which a 4: 3 aspect ratio image is stretched to the left and right to fit a 16: 9 aspect ratio. FIG. 3C illustrates a zoom display mode in which an image having a 4: 3 aspect ratio is enlarged and then the top and bottom portions of the image are cropped to fit a 16: 9 aspect ratio, and FIG. 3D is a spectacle display mode. This is the case where the horizontal magnification ratios of the and edges are processed differently and converted into the 16: 9 aspect ratio form.

Meanwhile, when the aspect ratio of the input image is 16: 9 and the aspect ratio of the output image is 4: 3, the image is converted by various aspect ratio conversion methods as shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C. 4A illustrates a letter box mode in which a 16: 9 aspect ratio image is displayed on a screen having a 4: 3 aspect ratio. At this time, the upper and lower parts of the screen are treated as black or gray. 4B illustrates a pan & scan display mode in which both parts of an image having a 16: 9 aspect ratio are cut out to a 4: 3 aspect ratio, and FIG. 4C illustrates a squeeze display mode in a 16: 9 aspect ratio. This is the case that the entire screen is configured to fit the 4: 3 aspect ratio by compressing the image horizontally.

In this case, except for the zoom display mode as shown in FIG. 3C, a 4: 3 image may be extracted from the main screen at all times, and the image is later output to the VCR format converter 205.

As described above, the main screen image, which is converted in accordance with the aspect ratio and the resolution of the display device, is output to the post processor 202 and the input selector 203.

The video signal processor 202a of the post processor 202 may adjust the brightness, contrast, tint, and clarity of the main screen image so that a format-converted main screen image matches the color characteristics of the display device. adjust the sharpness, etc. In addition, it performs image processing functions such as noise reduction and filtering as necessary. In addition, if necessary, when the color coordinates of the OSD image is different from the color coordinates of the main screen image, the color coordinates of the main screen image are converted to match the color coordinates of the OSD image. The main screen image processed by the VSP 202a is output to the OSD processor 202b.

The OSD processing unit 202b overlays OSD data necessary for the main screen image, for example, OSD processing of data broadcasting or a user menu. That is, in the existing analog TV, the OSD processing unit 202b is used to display the volume control of the voice signal, time reservation, channel information, and the like, and serves to display simple characters or figures. However, with the development of digital TV, the existing characters and figures have also changed very colorfully. Due to the introduction of data broadcasting, a wide variety of image information is input into a broadcasting channel and a function of displaying them is performed.

That is, in the case of data broadcasting, additional information is provided in accordance with content information of a video currently being broadcast, and various types of text information and still images of GIF, PNG, and MNG forms are provided. In addition, by overlaying and displaying such an image on the main screen according to a user's request, the user can be provided with various types of services that are not possible with conventional analog broadcasting.

In this case, the GIF image is compressed based on the YCbCr color coordinate, while the PNG and MNG image formats are based on the RGB color coordinate.

Therefore, when the video overlayed through the OSD process and the video data of the main screen have the same color coordinates, no problem occurs in performing the overlay function through the OSD process. Otherwise, it is necessary to consider this. . For example, suppose that an input main screen video is a PC screen and is processed in RGB color coordinates, and an image overlaid on OSD has a GIF format and has YCbCr color coordinates. In this case, a function of converting an overlayed OSD image into RGB color coordinates or converting a PC image into YCbCr color coordinates and then overlaying the image is required.

To this end, OSD coordinates for the OSD data, for example, an OSD image, that are overlaid onto the OSD by the OSD processing unit 202b are required. Otherwise, as described above, a color coordinate conversion function is required by the signal processing unit 202a.

In addition, the color coordinates of the image overlayed by the OSD and the color coordinates of the final display device may not coincide. For this purpose, a separate color coordinate conversion unit 202c is required at the final stage. That is, the color coordinate converter 202c converts the color coordinates of the image output from the OSD processor 202b into the color coordinates of the display device.

The main picture format converter 201, the video signal processor 202a of the post processor 202, the OSD processor 202b, and the color coordinate converter 202c each perform their own functions and perform various functions on the input image. Not only does it perform the function of transforming and outputting, it also has the function of passing it through without any processing on the input image, and it is selectively used as needed.

In this case, the output image of the main screen format conversion unit 201, the output image of the video signal processing unit 202a of the post-processing unit 202, the OSD data of the OSD processing unit 202b (that is, the OSD processed text, image information, An output image overlaid with a still image, data without OSD data overlaid, an output image from the color coordinate converting unit 202c, and the like are outputted to the input selector 23, and the input selector 203 outputs the input image. One of the images is selected and output to the image cutting unit 204.

That is, the input selector 203 simultaneously receives the output image of the main screen format converter 201 and the step-by-step output of the various post-processing units 202 and then selects one of the images under the control of the user or the system. To the image cutting unit 204.

If the input selector 203 selects and outputs the image overlaid on the OSD data by the OSD processor 202b or the output image of the color coordinate converting unit 202c, the VCR includes all OSD data overlaid on the main screen image. It is recorded. Therefore, when the VCR is played later, not only the contents of the main screen but also the OSD data overlaid on the main screen image at that time can be viewed.

As shown in FIG. 5, the image cropper 204 cuts a part of an input image as needed and outputs it to the VCR format converter 205.

That is, when the image displayed on the main screen is a 4: 3 screen, since the input image is converted in accordance with the 4: 3 aspect ratio by the main screen format converter 201, the image cutting unit 204 directly converts the input image to the VCR. What is necessary is just to output to the format conversion part 205. On the other hand, when the image displayed on the main screen is a 16: 9 screen, since the input image is converted to the 16: 9 aspect ratio by the main screen format converter 201, the image input to the image cutting unit 204 is also 16. It has a: 9 aspect ratio. Therefore, in this case, the image cutting unit 204 cuts out only the portion corresponding to the 4: 3 aspect ratio of the input image and provides it to the VCR format converter 205 so that the VCR format converter 205 effectively displays the 4: 3 screen. To be configured.

6 is a detailed block diagram of the image cutting unit 204 and includes a horizontal counter 601, a horizontal cutting unit 602, a vertical counter 603, and a vertical cutting unit 604.

The horizontal counter 601 and the vertical counter 603 are counted by a synchronization signal, the output of the horizontal counter 601 is output to the horizontal cutting unit 602, the output of the vertical counter 603 is a vertical cutting unit ( 604). The horizontal cutting unit 602 receives an input image signal, invalid horizontal position information h_pos and valid horizontal position information h_size, and outputs the valid horizontal position according to the output of the horizontal counter 601. Only the pixels at are outputted to the vertical cutout 604. The vertical cutting unit 604 receives an image signal output from the horizontal cutting unit 602, invalid vertical position information v_pos, and valid vertical position information v_size, and receives the vertical counter 603. Only the pixels at the valid vertical positions are selected and output to the VCR format converter 205 in accordance with the output of. As a result, an image input to the image cutting unit 204 as shown in FIG. 5A is cut as shown in FIG. 5B and output to the VCR format converter 205.

That is, the image cutting unit 204 receives the synchronization signal, the input image signal, and the position information of the valid image in the horizontal and vertical directions, and outputs only the valid image among the input images to the VCR format converter 205, thereby making it effective. It plays a role of cropping in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction for the image that is not, which can be configured using very simple hardware.

The VCR format converter 205 converts various types of image data processed in the size of the main screen to match the existing analog VCR format. In this case, the VCR format converter 205 operates like the image cutting unit 204 to effectively configure a 4: 3 screen regardless of the form displayed on the main screen.

That is, when the image displayed as the main screen operates in a wide mode as shown in FIG. 3B, the image itself has a 4: 3 aspect ratio but has a resolution of 16: 9. In this case, the image cutting unit 204 provides the input image directly to the VCR format converter 205 without cropping the image, and the VCR format converter 205 displays a 4: 9 picture on a 4: 9 screen. At the same time, the resolution of the display device is converted into an image having a resolution suitable for VCR recording and output.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, when the image displayed on the main screen operates in letterbox mode as shown in FIG. 4A, only the valid image among the images displayed on the 16: 9 screen is displayed. The VCR format converter 205 cuts and outputs the video, and the VCR format converter 205 converts the video into a video having a resolution suitable for VCR recording and outputs the appropriate VCR recording output.

However, in case of FIG. 5, it may be necessary to consider overscan of the analog display device. That is, when processing as shown in FIG. 5, an area in which the main screen is displayed on the VCR screen may be smaller than in the other display modes due to the overscan of the image. As a result, in the case of FIG. 5, a VCR screen may be displayed larger than other mode screens. In this case, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the main picture format conversion unit 201 may output an image in consideration of the overscan of the analog display device and provide the image to the VCR format conversion unit 205. After receiving the output image of the main screen format conversion unit 201, the processing unit 202 may cut out the overscan area using a separate image cutting unit and then perform post-processing.

FIG. 8 is a block diagram illustrating a format conversion apparatus of the present invention in which the above-described image cutting unit is further added, except that the image cutting unit 802a is added to the front end of the video signal processing unit 802b in the post processing unit 802. Since the same as FIG. 2 described above, a detailed description thereof will be omitted. That is, the image cutting unit 802a outputs to the VCR format converter 805 including a margin part considering the overscan of the display device, that is, the overscan area, in addition to the image valid for the display in consideration of the overscan of the analog display device. do.

In addition, when the main screen is in the zoom display mode, a problem may occur in which upper and lower portions of the 4: 3 image are not output to the VCR. However, such a problem may also be improved by using the image cutting unit 802a of FIG. 8. That is, the main picture format conversion unit 801 performs format conversion for the entire 4: 3 area and provides the image to the VCR format conversion unit 805. In this case, the VCR screen can output a normal VCR screen. In addition, the image cutting unit 802a positioned in front of the video signal processing unit 802b cuts the image of the upper and lower portions of the image and outputs the image to the video signal processing unit 802b so that the display is displayed in the normal zoom mode in the main screen. It becomes possible.

As described above, according to the format conversion apparatus according to the present invention, a main screen image displayed in various aspect ratios such as 16: 9 or 4: 3 is effectively displayed on a display device having various aspect ratios such as 16: 9 or 4: 3. By converting to a VCR recording screen having an aspect ratio of: 3, an appropriate analog TV output can be provided. That is, by selectively applying image data having various shapes to the VCR format converter, the main screen image may be provided as the VCR screen regardless of the size of the main screen image, the color coordinates of the main screen image, and the like. In addition, the aspect ratio and the image size of the image output to the VCR screen can be kept constant regardless of the aspect ratio of the main screen image or the aspect ratio of the image of the display apparatus.

The video cutting unit which cuts out a part of the input video signal is appropriately disposed in a portion processing a main screen image or a portion processing a VCR image to provide the VCR screen processing unit with additional information on the content displayed on the main screen. In other words, the aspect ratio and size of the VCR screen image can be maintained in an optimal state.

In addition, since the main screen image is received and converted into a VCR image, a separate area for the VCR image is not required in the memory, thereby reducing the size of the memory.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

Therefore, the technical scope of the present invention should not be limited to the contents described in the embodiments, but should be defined by the claims.
