Television receiver with a scan converter

摘要

A receiver to receive a mixture of progressive and interlace video broadcast signals without being conscious of switching between the broadcasting systems. The receiver receives the mixed video broadcast signals having different formats, converts received video signals to video signals having a different signal format from the signal format of the received video signals. The receiver simultaneously outputs the received video signals and the converted video signals . This allows the user to be unaware of any switching when the video input changes between the different broadcasting systems, by connecting a television set to either the interlace scanning system output or the progressive scanning system output of the receiver.
