An apparatus and its method having a first input for receiving a video signal, and a second input for receiving a computer generated graphics signal. A proportioning circuit is included which algebraically adds a portion of the signal from one input, and an inversely proportional portion of the signal from the other input. The algebraically added signal portions are provided for video display. The apparatus may include a voltage limiting circuit for limiting the combined voltage of the added signal portions to less than a set level.
