The measured characteristics are compared to stored characteristics associated with known video sources and to stored characteristics associated with previously processed video sources in order to obtain stored tuning settings associated with the respective video source. In the event that the measured characteristics do not match any of the stored characteristics, the measured characteristics are stored in memory to identify the new video source. The tuning settings in association with each video source are user adjustable.Field of SearchFor format with different aspect ratioFormat detection Multimode (e.g., composite, Y, C; baseband RF) For receiving more than one format at will (e.g., NTSC/PAL) Color processing Control of picture position Scanning circuit MONITORING, TESTING, OR MEASURING Synchronization (e.g., H-sync to subcarrier) Tuning RECEIVER CIRCUITRY Demodulator COMBINED WITH DIVERSE ART DEVICE (E.G., COMPUTER, TELEPHONE) | |
