Abstract
A time displacement adjustment device compensates time base errors that progressively cumulate in a time varying signal having a synchronizing information component from which the signal time base can be determined. Periodically, the synchronizing component is sampled and a representation thereof continuously generated with the component's timing relationship to the signal retained. Each continuously generated representation and the succeeding sample of the synchronizing component are compared to determine the time base error that progressively occurs in the signal between the successive samples of the synchronizing component. That signal is expanded or compressed accordingly to correct the erroneous timing.
