Abstract
An apparatus and system for providing video processing is disclosed. Within the system and the apparatus there is an analog video signal input means, which is connected to a video signal output means, which are both coupled to a video resolution compensation means. The analog video signal input means provides decoding of a first signal type received by the input means. The first signal type operates at a first refresh rate. The video signal output means receives the decoded first signal type and converts the decoded first signal type into a second signal type, which has a second refresh rate. This second signal type typically is compatible for viewing on a display incompatible with the first signal type. Then, the video resolution compensation means modifies the second refresh rate associated with the decoded second signal type so as to be compatible with the first refresh rate and displayable on the video monitor.
