Processing of progressive video signals in digital TV receivers
A memory management process for buffering progressive, interlaced, CCIR 601/656 compliant, and MPEG compliant video signals in a video memory that is partitioned into first and second buffers. The process includes identifying the format of a received video signal, buffering the received video signal in the video memory in accordance with a standard buffering mode if the video signal is in an interlaced, CCIR 601/656 compliant, or MPEG compliant format, and buffering the received video signal in the video memory in accordance with an override buffering mode if the video signal is in a progressive format such as a 240p signal generated by a game console, VCR, cable text generator, and the like.
