Abstract

Displaying broadcast video on a MultiMedia PC, implies the use of video format conversion (VFC) techniques, as computer displays and television receivers use quite distinct scanning rasters. VFC consists of spatial scaling, de-interlacing and picture rate conversion. Although scaling is rather straightforward, the other two tasks are far from trivial, and advanced motion compensated interpolation techniques are necessary to achieve a performance level that can compete with that of a standard TV. This paper discusses the options for picture rate conversion, and shows how even advanced motion compensated algorithms can run real time on a currently available programmable device.
