Abstract
A device for processing a first video signal and a second video signal that contain image data which overlap within a combined picture includes a processing element and a controller. The processing element receives the first video signal containing first image pixel data and receives the second video signal containing second image pixel data, and processes the first video signal and the second video signal to generate a third video signal indicative of an overlap region of images formed by the first and second video signals. The controller receives the first video signal, the second video signal, and the third video signal, and in response to a plurality of control signals selectively outputs one of the first, second and third video signals, wherein the third video signal is a weighted sum of the first and second video signals, wherein the control signals comprise a first control signal indicative of the location and size of a first image associated with the first video signal within a picture and a second control signal indicative of the location and size of a second image associated with the second video signal within the picture.
