Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé de traitement d'image permettant d'afficher des personnages qui se déplacent lentement et des images fixes au moyen d'un traitement simple dans un mode d'affichage d'indice. Une unité de commande (172) commande un contrôleur (192) de mémoire permettant de stocker des informations supplémentaires lues à partir d'une mémoire (173) d'informations supplémentaires dans une région de stockage d'informations supplémentaires d'une mémoire (174) d'image, et écrase directement les informations supplémentaires stockées dans la région de stockage d'informations supplémentaires dans un région de stockage d'image fixe utilisant une image d'indice. Comme les informations supplémentaires sont écrasées sur une image fixe dans la région de stockage d'image fixe utilisant une image d'indice après l'écrasement, les informations supplémentaires sont écrasées sur des images fixes dans ladite région de stockage d'image fixe utilisant une image d'indice qui sont lues par déplacement d'une ou de plusieurs lignes à la fois lorsque l'utilisateur effectue une opération de défilement pour permettre à des informations supplémentaires de type numéro de canal d'être déplacées lentement afin d'être affichées avec des images fixes affichées par défilement. L'invention peut être appliquée à des récepteurs de télévision.
