Abstract

Inserted in the transmission path (10) for transmitting a color signal of a color television signal is a signal switcher (12) with at least three switch positions (12a, 12b, 12c), the end positions of which are connected to the output (11.2) and input (11.1), respectively, of a delay line (11) contained in the transmission path. Connected to the transmission path (8) of the luminance signals is an edge detection arrangement (24) which, when a signal edge is detected in the luminance signal, generates a detection signal that oscillates about a zero line and has a zero crossing at the detection time, and controls the signal switcher in such a way that an associated color signal edge of the color signal, which has a steep slope and occurs at the point in time of the signal edge of the luminance signal, is transmitted. In the absence of detection of a signal edge, portions of both the undelayed and the delayed color signal are transmitted to the signal output (12.3) of the signal switcher.
