Abstract

The invention relates to a video circuit (1) for processing video signals which show images on a display panel with linear light transition, comprising a gamma correction circuit (3), a quantizer (11) and a sub-field generator circuit (8). To save computing time, a memory (7) replaces the quantizer (11).
