Patent ID: 8553127

Claim:
A video apparatus which processes first video signals and second video signals, the apparatus comprising: a memory which stores OSD data; a read out unit which reads out the OSD data from said memory; a first look up table which sets a color to the OSD data read out by said read out unit; a first synthesis unit which synthesizes the OSD data having the color set by said first look up table with the first video signals; a second look up table, which is independent with respect to said first look up table, which sets a color to the OSD data read out by said read out unit; and a second synthesis unit which synthesizes the OSD data having the color set by said second look up table with the second video signals, wherein in a case where the apparatus independently outputs video signals synthesized by said first synthesis unit and video signals synthesized by said second synthesis unit, (a) said read out unit reads out first OSD data, and (b) independently said first look up table sets a color to the first OSD data, and said second look up table sets a color to the first OSD data, and wherein said first look up table and said second look up table set, to the first OSD data, colors different from each other.
