An arrangement for storing video and graphic information from video and graphics sources to be displayed on a computer output display including a single frame buffer having first and second separately addressable areas, the first of such areas being adapted to store pixel information, the second of such areas being adapted to store information regarding the type of information stored at each pixel of the first of such areas.

Apparatus for distinguishing information stored in a frame buffer

A computer subsystem for presenting both video and graphic information on a computer output display in a computer system having a central processing unit and a frame buffer including apparatus for providing a video input signal representing full frame of video interlaced data, apparatus for selecting a rectangular portion of the video data to be presented, apparatus for converting the selected portion of the video signal into a stream of digitized pixel signals, apparatus for designating each such pixel of video information which is to be written to the frame buffer, and apparatus for addressing each of such pixels for storage at selected points of the frame buffer.

Apparatus for storing data both video and graphics signals in a single

An arrangement which includes apparatus for signifying the source of data to be displayed, apparatus for generating lines of data to fit between the lines of interlaced data to be presented on a non-interlaced output display device, and apparatus for generating lines of data to be presented on an interlaced display from a larger number of lines representing non-interlaced data.
