Abstract: A single, hand held remote control unit produces command signals used to control all operational aspects of a video tape recorder and an associated television receiver, and the video tape recorder and television receiver include switches that upon actuation can provide various interconnections so that all operating modes of the two units are possible. Actuation of the switches is performed by controllers, arranged at the particular units, and which receive the coded command signals from the remote control unit to set the switches in accordance with any of several keys that can be actuated on the remote control unit. In one aspect, depressing a single playback key at the remote control unit will produce coded signals received by the controllers to set the television receiver to an unused channel frequency and cause the video tape recorder to reproduce a prerecorded video tape, with the reproduced signal fed to the television receiver over that unused channel for display.

Abstract: In a television image display apparatus, one field of an input video signal is divided into a plurality of areas in each of which image information is sampled, and an arithmetic processor (3) provides a video control signal on the basis of preset adjusting data received from a memory and the sampled image information. Luminance, chrominance or sharpness levels can be automatically controlled for each field by such video control signal to maintain the video display in an optimum state.

Abstract: A video source selecting system for a television receiver has a built-in video tape recorder (video deck) for sequentially selecting for display, a plurality of video signals on various channels, such video signals including at least a video signal from the built-in video deck, and a video signal from at least one external video input terminal. A selected video signal is supplied to a monitor television receiver. When the built-in video tape recorder is placed in its playback mode, the plurality of video signals are switched selected sequentially, while when the built-in video tape recorder is not placed in its playback mode, it is skipped by the switch, whereby the order in which the video signals are switched is in response to the operational state of the built-in video tape recorder.

Abstract: REMOTE CONTROL APPARATUS Remote control apparatus is provided for generating and transmitting remote control signals for controlling the operations of one or more devices. For example, the remote control apparatus may be used to control video playback and display devices, whereby previously recorded video signals may be played back and displayed. The apparatus includes a plurality of selector switches, each being selectively operable to initiate the transmission of a respective command signal for commanding a corresponding operation in the controlled devices. An encoder is coupled to the selector switches and is responsive to the operation of a respective one thereof to generate an encoded command signal. This command signal is transmitted to the controlled devices, wherein it is received and utilized to implement the commanded operation. A selectively operable control switch also is provided. A control circuit is coupled to the encoder and is responsive to the operation of the control switch to simulate successive operations of the plural selector switches, whereby the encoder responds to the operation of the control switch to generate successive encoded command signals.

Abstract: SO1457 REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM A remote control system capable of selectively controlling a desired one of plural devices in response to the transmission of remote control signals from a transmitter. A central control includes a decoder decoding a remote control signal so as to produce a corresponding device control signal, this device control signal being coupled to the plural devices so as to control a desired one thereof in accordance with the decoded signal. The central control includes at least one, and preferably plural, input terminals. Plural receiving elements, spatially separated from each other, are coupled to respective ones of the input terminals, preferably by a conducting lead, and, preferably, a receiving element is provided directly at the central control. The receiving elements are capable of receiving a remote control signal transmitted, for example, by infrared transmission, from the transmitter. A combining circuit, such as an OR-type circuit, in the central control is coupled to the respective input terminals and also to the one receiving element which may be disposed directly at the central control, so as to supply a remote control signal received by any of the receiving elements to the decoder. Hence, a desired device is controlled regardless of the particular receiving element to which the remote control signal is transmitted.

Abstract: Channel selecting apparatus for use with at least first and second tuning devices, each tuning device being responsive to a channel selecting signal supplied thereto for being tuned to a corresponding frequency. At least first and second selectors are provided for producing first and second selector signals, respectively, representing those channels to which the first and second tuning devices are tunable. A set of adjustable elements, common to all of the tuning devices are settable to produce respective channel selecting signals. At least first and second sampling circuits, associated with the first and second tuning devices, respectively, are responsive to first and second phases, respectively, of a switching signal to sample a channel selecting signal applied thereto. A set of switching circuits is provided, each switching circuit being coupled to a respective one of the adjustable elements to receive a respective first selector signal and a respective second selector signal. Each switching circuit is conditioned by the first phase of the switching signal to enable the channel selecting signal produced by the adjustable element coupled thereto to be applied to the first sampling circuit if a first selector signal is supplied thereto, and each switching circuit is conditioned by the second phase of the switching signal to enable the channel selecting signal produced by the adjustable element coupled thereto to be applied to the second sampling circuit if a second selector signal is supplied thereto. The channel selecting signals sampled by the first and second sampling circuits are applied to the first and second tuning devices, respectively.
