Abstract

A video storage and synchronization system has one of more frame memories and an output buffer providing a selectable delay. Incoming video signals are digitized and routed to the memories and/or to the buffer. Stored signals are read out from the memories in synchronism with the incoming signals and can be mixed with the incoming signals before processing in the output buffer.
