Abstract

본 발명은 다국어 OSD문자 표시장치에 관한 것으로, 언어절환모드의 설정이 용이한 키입력부(10)와, 상기 언어 절환모드가 설정시 현재 화면표시되는 OSD문자가 그에 상응하는 뜻을 지닌 다른 언어의 OSD문자로 변환되어 화면표시되도록 제어하는 제어부(12), 상기 제어부(12)의 제어하에 영상신호 또는 배경화면의 재생처리동작 및 상기 OSD문자의 화면표시동작을 수행하는 영상처리모듈(14) 및, 상기 제어부(12)의 제어하에 현재 화면표시되는 OSD문자에 대한 언어절환동작을 수행하여 상기 영상처리모듈(14)로 인가하는 OSD처리수단(16)으로 구성되고, 상기 OSD처리수단(16)은 OSD문자생성동작을 실행시킬수 있는 동작용 OSD프로그램이 저장된 OSD프로그램메모리부(16A)와, 상기 OSD문자생성동작에 적용되는 다국어 OSD문자데이터가 복수개 저장되어 있는 OSD폰트메모리부(16B), 화면표시되는 OSD문자의 컬러레벨이 저장되어 있는 컬러데이터저장부(16C), 상기 제어부(12)의 제어하에 OSD문자생성동작 및 현재 화면표시되는 OSD문자에 대해 그에 상응하는 뜻을 지닌 다른 언어로의 절환동작을 제어하는 OSD제어부(16D) 및, 상기 언어절환모드시 상기 OSD제어부(16D)의 제어하에 현재 화면표시된 OSD문자를 그에 상응하는 뜻을 지닌 다른 언어로 신호처리하여 상기 영상처리모듈(14)로 제공하는 OSD신호생성부(16E)로 이루어져서, 해당 AV기기에 적용되는 모든언어에 대한 각각의 OSD데이터를 각각 찾아갈 필요없이 예컨데 첫번째 언어의 OSD데이터의 포맷에 다른언어의 해당 정보가 위치하는 곳의 정보(인덱스)를 가지고 있으므로, 첫번째 언어의 OSD데이터의 검색만으로 다른 언어의 해당 정보를 손쉽게 찾아갈 수 있게 되었을뿐만 아니라 그로 인해 언어절환모드를 설정하였을 경우 현재 화면표시된 임의의 OSD문자는 그에 상응하는 다른 언어의 OSD문자로 간단하게 절환되어 화면표시되도록 하는 효과가 있다.The present invention relates to a multi-language OSD display device, the key input section 10 is easy to set the language switching mode, and the OSD text currently displayed when the language switching mode is set to the other language having a corresponding meaning A control unit 12 for converting the OSD text to be displayed on the screen, an image processing module 14 for performing the playback processing of the video signal or the background screen and the screen displaying operation of the OSD text under the control of the control unit 12; And OSD processing means (16) for performing language switching operations on the OSD characters currently displayed on the screen under the control of the controller (12) and applying them to the image processing module (14). The OSD program memory unit 16A, which stores an OSD program for executing an OSD character generation operation, and an OSD font memory in which a plurality of multilingual OSD character data applied to the OSD character generation operation are stored. 16B, the color data storage unit 16C in which the color level of the displayed OSD text is stored, and the corresponding meaning for the OSD text generation operation and the currently displayed OSD text under the control of the control unit 12; The OSD control unit 16D for controlling a switching operation to another language having a different language, and under the control of the OSD control unit 16D in the language switching mode, the OSD characters currently displayed on the screen are processed by signal processing in another language having a corresponding meaning. It consists of an OSD signal generation unit 16E provided to the image processing module 14, so that it is not necessary to find each OSD data for every language applied to the AV device, for example, a language different from the format of the OSD data of the first language. Because it has the information (index) where the relevant information is located, it is not only easy to find the relevant information in other languages by searching OSD data of the first language. Therefore, when the language switching mode is set, any OSD text displayed on the screen is simply switched to the OSD text of the corresponding other language so that the screen is displayed.
