A system for processing a television (TV) picture-out-picture (POP) includes a line buffer, a first multiplexer, an image processing engine, a scaling engine and a timing generator. The line buffer receives partial pixels of a first picture and partial pixels of a second picture. The first multiplexer selects the partial pixels of the first and second picture as an output. The image processing engine performs an image processing on the partial pixels output by the first multiplexer to thereby produce processed pixels. The scaling engine performs a scaling operation on the processed pixels to thereby produce scaled pixels. The timing generator produces a timing signal for the image processing engine and the scaling engine and produces enable signals respectively for the first picture and the second picture. The image processing engine and the scaling engine process the partial pixels of the first or second picture in multiplexing.

System and method for processing a television picture-out-picture

An image signal processing device, which uses a horizontal synchronizing signal detector to find a frequency (period) of an original horizontal synchronizing signal from an external input horizontal synchronizing signal and provide an internal reference horizontal synchronizing signal with the same frequency same as the original horizontal synchronizing signal to a horizontal synchronizing signal output controller for determining to output the external input horizontal synchronizing signal according to the frequency of the internal reference horizontal synchronizing signal and filtering out the original horizontal synchronizing signal.
