Frame rate control system and method
TLDR
In this paper, a system and method of controlling the frame rate of signals for a video display device may employ a first-in/first-out (FIFO) frame rate control strategy for analog image source signals in conjunction with LCD panels.Abstract:
A system and method of controlling the frame rate of signals for a video display device may employ a first-in/first-out (FIFO) frame rate control strategy for analog image source signals in conjunction with LCD panels. The disclosed system and method may dynamically adjust the frequency at which data are read out of a FIFO buffer, accounting for any frame rate differences between the source image data signal and the destination display device. Additionally, resolution of the output image may be adjusted to conform with the capabilities of the display apparatus.read more

Patent
A method and apparatus for upscaling an image
TL;DR: In this article, an upscaler for upscaling a source image to generate a destination image without requiring large buffers is proposed. But the aspect ratio (ratio of the length of the source images to that of the width of the destination image) need not be equal to or even close to the aspect ratios of the original image.
