6、evision Summary With the advent of digital television (DTV) there is now a need for a simple and cost-effective interconnect between the various digital signal sources and the DTV receiver. Digital video and audio are now available from digital VCRs (DVCR), terrestrial broadcasts, digital video disk
7、s (DVD), cable TV, satellite systems and digital camcorders. The RF remodulator in this Recommendation is an economical and practical digital interconnect for the new consumer digital video devices. The RF remodulator, is a one way throughput device with a data rate of 19.3 Mbils, which is suitable
8、for most connections. The interface transmits MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) data for compressed digital video and audio and an OSD (on-screen display) overlay. The RF remodulator uses a simple coaxial cable to interconnect devices in a way with which consumers are most familiar. Source ITU-T R
9、ecommendation J. 15 1 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 9 (1 997-2000) and approved by the World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (Montreal, 27 September - 6 October 2000). ITU-T 5.151 (10/2000) i FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (U) is the United Nations specialized agen
10、cy in the field of telecommunications. The U Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of U. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basi
11、s. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the U-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of U-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution
12、 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within U-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a r
13、ecognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS U draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed I
14、ntellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by U members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendatio

21、al television 1 Scope This ITU-T Recommendation defines an RF remodulator interface for digital television with an advanced on-screen display (OSD) overlay capability. This Recommendation defines minimum specifications for a one-way data path utilizing an 8 VSB trellis (8T VSB) or a 16 VSB remodulat
22、or in compliance with Annex D/J.83 (System D) (ATSC Standard N53, Annex D). The advanced overlay uses the same OSD syntax as ITU-T J.117 and allows signal service providers their incremental revenue from programme guides and supplemental services. The RF remodulator also facilitates conditional acce
23、ss required by service providers. This Recommendation applies to any type of device used to connect to a J.83 System D compliant digital television receiver. Devices meeting this Recommendation should interoperate with any J. 83 System D compliant receiver that also supports “monitor mode.“ This Rec
24、ommendation addresses RF output specifications, on-screen display (OSD) capabilities, and capability profiles for a DTV remodulator and recommendations concerning input to the remodulator. This Recommendation is derived from several standards of the Electronic Industries Alliance (EM). 2 Normative r

Processing within the OSD Consumer of the Set-OSD-pixel-format subframe should conditionally cause the OSD frame buffers to be initialized to the fill-value value provided: 1) Processing the first Set-OSD-pixel-forma
