Abstract
An apparatus for controlling a stereo video display with non-stereo video source includes a memory, a read/write controller and a motion analyzer. The memory stores a current frame, a previous frame of the current frame, and a next frame for the current frame that is in preparation. The current frame and the previous frame are for a dextral image and a sinistral image of a stereoscopic image respectively. The read/write controller controls the addresses to write the current frame and the next frame into the memory, and the reading order of the current frame and the previous frame. The motion analyzer calculates an overall motion direction of the next frame in relation to the current frame, and compares the next overall motion direction to a previous overall motion direction of the current frame in relation to the previous frame, to control the action of the read/write controller to read from or write into the memory, so that when the horizontal relation between the next overall motion direction and the previous overall motion direction is changed, the corresponding relation between the current and the next frames and the dextral and the sinistral images is also changed.
