Abstract
In a VIR-responsive Tint Control system a dematrixing circuit for synthesizing, from the individual chrominance demodulator outputs, a ZERO-COLOR reference signal. The VIR chrominance interval signal and the ZERO-COLOR reference signals are used as input to a feedback loop that also includes the receiver's chrominance subcarrier oscillator. By comparing the VIR chrominance interval signal to the synthesized ZERO-COLOR reference subcarrier oscillator phase errors are corrected by virtue of a single sampling of the VIR signal.
