Abstract:
An apparatus for adding a watermark to a moving image as it is displayed comprises a watermark generator in which data representing a watermark is generated. The watermark contains at least one of location data and time data pertaining to the displaying of the moving image. The location and time data is protected by forward error encoding. The watermark also contains at least one of program data identifying the moving image and frame data unique in identifying each frame of the moving image. The program and time data is protected by scrambling. A watermark applicator applies the watermark data to image data representing substantially all of the moving image depending on a characteristic, such as amplitude, of the data.
Abstract:
A system for conditioning digital image data for display of the image represented (Fig.4) thereby is arranged such that data defining an image is supplied as pixel data and is formatted before being output for display. The pixel data defines a multiplicity of pixels which together form an image and is stored for processing. A set of parameters defining each of a plurality of different image displaying formats is also stored in a format data table (422). The digital image data is read from the store, formatted (424) depending on the set of parameters for a selected image display format, and output for display of the image represented thereby in the selected image display format.
