20100166080 | VIDEO DISPLAY APPARATUS - There is provided a video display apparatus capable of reducing as much as possible the time taken until an image is first displayed after inputted video data has changed, wherein, when video data inputted into an input device changes, a decode timing generating device generates a decode timing signal at a point in time when a decodable frame that can be decoded is first acquired after the change, and a display timing generating device generates a display timing signal at a point in time when a displayable frame that can be displayed is first acquired after the change. | 07-01-2010 |
20120030728 | DIGITAL BROADCAST RECEIVER AND SOFTWARE STARTUP METHOD - A digital broadcast receiver schedules the startup of its software on the basis of the number of data transfer channels and core processing units available to transfer the necessary programs into main storage and execute them, the execution priority order of the programs, the time required to transfer each necessary program into main storage, and the time required to initialize each program. If a snapshot startup option exists for a program, the initialization time is compared with the time required for transferring the snapshot of the program's working data and for further post-processing. Consideration of the data transfer times and initialization times as well as execution priority enables the shortest schedule to be determined. | 02-02-2012 |
20120176551 | DIGITAL BROADCAST RECEIVING APPARATUS AND CHANNEL SWITCHING METHOD - An apparatus to start channel switchover processing with reliability and to shorten an image non-displaying period. The apparatus stores a second channel-selection control information for each channel, including an I-picture appearance time which is a time when a packet including an I-picture is received and an I-pictures appearance interval-time which is an interval between times when a packet including an I-picture is received; and a control unit obtains, after an input of switching of the channel-selection is received, the I-picture appearance time and the I-pictures appearance interval-time corresponding to the switched channel from the channel-selection control information, adds the obtained I-pictures appearance interval-time to the obtained I-picture appearance time, calculates an I-picture appearance estimated-time which is a time when a packet including an I-picture is obtained subsequently, and delays a channel switchover until a time earlier than the I-picture appearance estimated-time by a switchover period-of-time required for the switching of the channel-selection. | 07-12-2012 |
20130003867 | VIDEO DISPLAY DEVICE - A decode timing generation unit is configured so that when there is a change in the video data input at the input terminal, by moving the reference time into the future, it generates a decode timing signal immediately after the first acquisition of the DTS of a decodable frame following the change. The decode timing generation unit is configured so that the decode timing signal is generated when only a portion of the decodable frame is acquired, before the entirety of the decodable frame is acquired. In addition, the display timing generation unit is configured so that when there is a change in the video data input at the input terminal, by moving the reference time into the future, it generates a display timing immediately after the first acquisition of the PTS of a decodable frame after the change. | 01-03-2013 |
20130139212 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, BROADCAST RECEIVING APPARATUS AND SOFTWARE START-UP METHOD - An apparatus using a software start-up method, selects execution-targeted software data to be used for starting execution of the start-up processing, out of software data stored in a first storage device; starts the execution of the start-up processing by using the execution-targeted software data; searches for another software data other than the execution-targeted software data, from software data stored in the first storage device; determines whether the another software data is changed from its initial-state; and, if the another software data is changed, selects initial-state software data as the initial state of the another software data from said at least one software data stored in a second storage device, reads the initial-state software data from the second storage device, and replaces the another software data stored in the first storage device with the read initial-state software data by overwriting. | 05-30-2013 |
20140149805 | SLAVE DEVICE, MASTER DEVICE, AND COMMUNICATION METHOD - A slave device is equipped with: a parameter setting portion for setting different values according to the content of commands sent from a master device, as parameter values for detecting anomalies; and an anomaly detecting portion for detecting anomalies by comparing the time corresponding to a parameter value that has been set by the parameter setting portion and the measured time of a process carried out in response to a command. | 05-29-2014 |
20140331257 | INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - An information processing system configured from multiple digital broadcast program analysis devices ( | 11-06-2014 |
20150281717 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, BROADCAST RECEPTION DEVICE, AND SOFTWARE DATA UPDATE METHOD - The present invention reduces the amount of time from when a device such as a digital broadcast receiver is powered on until video corresponding to a digital broadcast signal received by the device can be displayed. In order to do so: the processing load on the main control unit ( | 10-01-2015 |
