When the number of copies is reached, if additional copies are to be made, then the source copy is disabled when a new copy is made. | 12-18-2008 |
20090077605 | TRANSMISSION METHOD, TRANSMISSION APPARATUS, VIDEO EQUIPMENT, AND DISPLAY APPARATUS - The present invention provides technology for improving the convenience of information transmission and connection in the case of transmitting information by connecting together a plurality of pieces of video equipment. To that end, the present invention is one that transmits a baseband video signal and/or a compressed video signal between a first piece of video equipment and a second piece of video equipment by means of a bidirectional interface and is characterized by the fact that the aforementioned bidirectional interface has transmission rates that are asymmetric in the uplink and the downlink, narrowband information is transmitted in the downlink in case broadband information is transmitted in the uplink, and narrowband information is transmitted in the uplink in case broadband information is transmitted in the downlink. | 03-19-2009 |
20090102972 | Display Apparatus - A display apparatus transmits a picture acquisition request for getting picture information to an external image apparatus connected through a predetermined interface to the display apparatus from the external image apparatus at predetermined intervals and gets a plurality of pieces of picture information from the external image apparatus to be displayed. The plurality of pictures may be switched at predetermined intervals, for example, to be displayed, so that the plurality of pictures may be displayed in a so-called slide show manner. A plurality of pictures for thumbnail may be produced from the plurality of pieces of picture information and be arranged together to be displayed in one picture screen of a display device. | 04-23-2009 |
