DATA TRANSMISSION OVER A VIDEO LINK

摘要

A technique transfers data over a standard video transport, where this data may be in a nonstandard format or include control, audio, or other nonvideo data, or combinations of these. This standard video transport may be a DVI connection. The technique can increase the color depth by transferring high colors signals in a first packet and low colors signals in a second packet. The low and high color signals are combined to form a received pixel which is shown on a display of the display unit. For example, video with increased color depth and audio signals can be transferred over the standard video transport.
