AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

When compared to a computer monitor, a television set typically has lower image quality since the television set displays video at lower resolution.
However, video game consoles do not interface with computer monitors through computers because a user will typically experience audio latency whereby the audio and video are not synchronized.
Audio latency may be caused by the use of different clock frequencies by an audio and video data conversion device and by the computer.
The audio latency can cause a noticeable delay between a user's input actions through the video game console and resultant audio and video outputted from a computer.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION [0001] This application is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 11 / 059,972, filed on Feb. 16, 2005, the disclosure of this application is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Video game consoles are usually connected to regular television sets for visual and sounds effects. When compared to a computer monitor, a television set typically has lower image quality since the television set displays video at lower resolution. However, video game consoles do not interface with computer monitors through computers because a user will typically experience audio latency whereby the audio and video are not synchronized. In other words, the audio may lag behind or lead the video by a few seconds. [0003] Audio latency may be caused by the use of different clock frequencies by an audio and video data conversion device and by the computer. In particular, a first frequency used within the audio and video data conversion ...
