Abstract

In a video system, a video source, e.g., a camera, provides a source video stream. The source video stream comprises a stream of image data units. A buffer control unit writes the image data units consecutively to a circular buffer. A display control unit reads the image data units consecutively from the circular buffer to generate a target video stream in accordance with a read delay. The display control unit comprises a feedback loop which controls timing of the operation of reading the image data units from the circular buffer so as to reduce a difference between the read delay and a reference delay. The video system may, for example, be installed in a vehicle, e.g., for providing a driver with a live view from a camera.
