Abstract

Abstract The video signals outputted from a computer in a format of sequential scanning are memorized in a frame memory after being processed so that the isolated luminance signals do not exist in each horizontal scanning line. Furthermore, the video signals are read out from the frame memory in a format of interlaced scanning.
