Video apparatus with video signal detection and respective method for recognizing a video signal

摘要

A video apparatus (2) comprises an input switching matrix (6), to which a video input (4) is coupled, the video input (4) comprising a terminal (YPrPb) for a component video signal and a CVBS terminal (Video) and/or a S-VHS terminal (S-Video), a synchronization signal detector (7) and a color decoder (8) coupled to the input switching matrix (6), an output switching matrix (9) coupled to the input switching matrix (6) and to the color decoder (8), and a microcontroller (10) coupled to the input switching matrix (6) and to the synchronization signal detector (7) for controlling the input switching matrix (6). The detection of the component video signal is made automatic by means of the microcontroller (6), the synchronization signal detector (7) and the color decoder (8).
