Abstract:
In combination for providing an interpolation in two (2) coordinate directions between an image formulated partially from graphic pixels and partially from video pixels:first means for providing a plurality of pixels in each of the two (2) coordinate directions where some of the pixels represent video and some of the pixels represent graphics; andsecond means for interpolating a plurality of pixels between each adjacent pair of pixels in one of the two (2) coordinate directions to form video pixels between each such adjacent pair of pixels in the two (2) coordinate directions upon the occurrence of video in both pixels of such adjacent pair in (1) of the two (2) coordinate directions and to form a plurality of graphics pixels between such adjacent pair of pixels in the one of the two coordinate directions upon the occurrence of graphics in at least one (1) of the pixels in such adjacent pair in one (1) of the two (2) coordinate directions.
