Title: The Innovations of Charles William Worrell

Introduction

Charles William Worrell is a notable inventor based in Carmel, IN (US). He holds a total of 9 patents that showcase his contributions to multimedia technology. His work primarily focuses on enhancing video playback and display systems.

Latest Patents

One of Worrell's latest patents is titled "Exploitation of discontinuity indicator for trick mode operation." This invention presents a system and method for modifying multimedia content streams to implement trick mode playback functions in MPEG receivers. The system includes a processor that sets a discontinuity indicator in an adaptation field associated with a video frame. Additionally, it can set a substitute program clock reference (PCR) value in the adaptation field, which is approximately equal to the presentation time stamp (PTS) of the associated video frame. The processor can also insert an adaptation field with at least one video frame that was not previously associated with an adaptation field and remove at least one video frame from the multimedia content stream.

Another significant patent is "System and a method to avoid on-screen fluctuations due to input signal changes while in an OSD or graphic centric mode." This invention relates to modifying video signals and includes a decoder that decodes a video signal with embedded picture setting data. The video processor detects whether the system is in an on-screen display (OSD) mode and applies or withholds the embedded picture setting data accordingly.
