Abstract
A video display system comprises a video display for simultaneously displaying pictures representative of first and second video signals, having first and second synchronizing signals respectively. A switch selectably couples the video display with one of the first and second synchronizing signals. A horizontal synchronizing component of the first synchronizing signal is detected by a sensing circuit, the switch being responsive to the sensing circuit. The video display is synchronized with the first synchronizing signal when the horizontal synchronizing component of the first video signal is sensed and is otherwise synchronized with the second synchronizing signal.
