A signal processing circuit achieves a wide display mode without switching on and off an S correction in a horizontal deflecting system, and includes digital memories 16a, 16b and 16c for receiving a luminance signal Y, a color difference signal B-Y and a color difference signal R-Y. The writing operation of each digital memory is controlled by a sampling clock f.sub.CW of a write control circuit 18, and the reading operation of each digital memory is controlled by a sampling clock f.sub.CR of a read control circuit 19. A clock oscillator 24 of the read control circuit 19 produces the sampling clock f.sub.CR whose frequency is varied in accordance with a modulation voltage of a modulation voltage generator 31 in each line interval.

System for converting aspect ratio of video signal having frequency

An automatic color temperature adjusting system for a television receiver which is capable of eliminating an unstable picture condition during the turn on transition period. The automatic color temperature adjusting system has a gain control circuit associated with a feedback loop for controlling the amplifier characteristics of an amplifier in each color channel. The gain control circuit is responsive to the turning on of the power supply to lower the gain of each amplifier to a given level. The gain control circuit adjusts the gain of the amplifier to gradually increase the gain to reach a normal gain level after a given period of time.
