In a video system red, green, and blue color signals, which correspond to an output video signal, are offset-sampled and thereafter supplied to a switching circuit. The offset-sampled color signals reproduced from VTRs are supplied to the switching circuit. The offset-sampled color signals selected by the switching circuit are supplied to a special effect applying apparatus, and the processed color signals are supplied to the switching circuit. The offset-sampled color signals selected by the switching circuit are decoded by way of interpolation processing to obtain the output video signals.

Video signal transmission apparatus and video system for transmitting

A luminance signal generating apparatus including a first CCD device, and a second CCD device disposed at a position obliquely displaced relative to a spatial position of the first CCD device, an interpolating circuit for interpolating an output from the second CCD device. A low band luminance signal generating circuit generates a low band luminance signal on the basis of an output from the interpolating circuit. A high band luminance signal generating circuit generates a high band luminance signal on the basis of output signals from the first and second CCD devices and the interpolation signal from the interpolating circuit. A luminance signal generating circuit generates a luminance signal on the basis of the low band luminance signal and the high band luminance signal from the low band luminance signal generating circuit and the high band luminance generating circuit.
