Abstract

A video display deflection circuit includes a source of a video signal for displaying picture information contained in the video signal in a screen of a cathode ray tube. The video signal provides selectively on-screen-display information and non-on-screen-display information. A source of a first control signal has a first value, when the video signal provides on-screen-display information and a second value, when said video signal provides non-on-screen-display information. A waveform generator is responsive to the first control signal for generating a second signal at a frequency that is related to a deflection frequency having a first waveform, when the video signal provides on-screen-display information, and a second waveform, that is different from the first waveform, when the video signal provides non-on-screen-display information. A modulator generates a modulated correction signal by modulating, in accordance with the second signal, a time-derivative signal produced from the video signal, The correction signal is coupled to a scan velocity modulation winding to produce scan velocity modulated deflection of the electron beam.
