[0021] 1 is a schematic diagram of a processing system for reading a display menu according to an embodiment of the present invention. The processing system for reading a display menu (hereinafter simply referred to as "processing system 10") includes a display 100 and a computer 200. The computer 200 is connected to a display 100. The display 100 includes a display unit 110, a first storage unit 120, a first communication unit 130, and a first processing unit 140, and the first processing unit 140 is connected to the display unit 110, the first storage unit 120, and the first communication unit 130.

[0022] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 2 in addition to FIG. 1. Hereinafter, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a display for reproducing an OSD menu and a program screen according to an embodiment of the present invention. The display unit 110 is used to reproduce a program screen 310 or an OSD menu 320 shown in FIG. 2 by an application program (hereinafter simply referred to as "app") 211 of FIG. 1. The OSD menu 320 has a number of display options 321, which will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 5, for a user to adjust the value of the option content or to provide the user with related information. The types of display options 321 include, but are not limited to, brightness, contrast, saturation, color temperature, sharpness, gamma, dynamic contrast, black level, color management, noise reduction, picture quality mode, resolution settings, input source selection, language selection, apps 211, screen refresh rate, system settings, or option sources.

[0023] Returning to Fig. 1, the first storage unit 120 stores an original display set 121 and model information 122. The original display set 121 is a content set of the display options 321 in Fig. 5 that the display 100 uses when the app 211 is not running. The first communication unit 130 is connected to the computer 200 and receives the download content 131 or the recommended options 221. The type of the first communication unit 130 may be, but is not limited to, a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI (registered trademark)), a Universal Serial Bus Type-C (USB-C), a Digital Visual Interface (DVI), a DisplayPort interface (or DP interface), or a Thunderbolt interface. The first communication unit 130 can also connect to the computer 200 via wireless transmission, such as Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) or Miracast. When the display unit 110 plays the program screen 310 of Fig. 2, the first processing unit 140 obtains the recommended options 221 from the received download content 131. Here, the download content 131 includes the model information 122 and at least one display option 321 of Fig. 5 corresponding to the app 211.

[0024] The computer 200 comprises a second storage unit 210, a second communication unit 220, a network unit 230, and a second processing unit 240, and the second processing unit 240 is connected to the second storage unit 210, the second communication unit 220, and the network unit 230. The second communication unit 220 is connected to the first communication unit 130, and the interface of the second communication unit 220 matches the interface of the first communication unit 130. The second communication unit 220 sends download content 131 or recommended options 221 to the first communication unit 130. The second storage unit 210 stores (stores) a plurality of applications 211 and an operation system 212. After the second processing unit 240 executes the operation system 212, the user can select any application 211, and the second processing unit 240 executes the selected application 211. When the operation system 212 is executed, the display 100 displays a corresponding operation screen. The executed application 211 generates a video signal for the display 100. The display 100 generates a corresponding program screen 310 based on the video signal, as shown in Fig. 2. The application 211 may be a game, document editing software, image playback software, or the like. Different types of apps 211 may have different requirements for the program screen 310. For example, document editing software may require contrast and sharpness adjustments. For example, in the case of a game, the program screen 310 may require adjustment of display options 321 such as High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging, screen refresh rate, vertical synchronization, or resolution.

[0025] In this way, the display 100 of Figure 1 generates the corresponding download content 131 and its related processing. As shown in Figure 3, the processing method for loading the display 100 menu includes the following steps. Step S310: The computer 200 of FIG. 1 executes the application 211 and outputs the video signal of the program screen 310 to the display 100. Step S320: The display 100 receives the download content 131 from an option provider (not shown), and the download content 131 matches the application 211 and the model information 122. Step S330: The display 100 obtains at least one recommended option 221 according to the downloaded content 131. Step S340: The display 100 changes the original display set 121 set in the OSD menu 320 to the recommended option 221, and plays back the program screen 310 of the application 211 with the recommended option 211.

[0026] First, the computer 200 selects an arbitrary application 211 and executes the selected application 211. When the computer 200 executes the application 211, a corresponding video signal is generated on the display 100 (corresponding to step S310).

[0027] After acquiring the video signal (image signal), the display 100 receives the download content 131 from an option supply unit (not shown but described in detail later) (corresponding to step S320). In this embodiment, the option supply unit may be the cloud server 400 in FIG. 4, the computer 200, a storage unit (at least one of the first storage unit 120 and the second storage unit 210), or a combination thereof.

[0028] The first processing unit 140 obtains at least one recommended option 221 based on the downloaded content 131 (corresponding to step S330). In the following different embodiments, the cloud server 400 and the computer 200 are respectively described as option providers.

[0029] The computer 200 can search whether a corresponding display option set is stored in the second storage unit 210 based on the downloaded content 131. If a display option set is stored in the second storage unit 210, the computer 200 packages the selected display option set into recommended options 221 and sends the recommended options 221 to the display 100. If the recommended options 221 are not stored in the second storage unit 210, the computer 200 can connect to the cloud server 400 via the network unit 230. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 , the second processing unit 240 transfers the downloaded content 131 to the cloud server 400 via the network unit 230. The cloud server 400 has a plurality of display option sets, each corresponding to a respective app 211 and model information 122. Each display option set further includes at least one display option 321 and its content value. The cloud server 400 selects at least one display option 321 from the set of display options, and the selected display option is referred to as a recommended option 221. The cloud server 400 then transmits the recommended option 221 to the computer 200. The computer 200 transfers the recommended options 221 to the display 100. The display 100 modifies the associated display options 321 in the OSD menu 320 based on the recommended options 221 (corresponding to step S340) so that the content values ​​of these display options 321 match the recommended options 221. While the computer 200 is running the app 211, the display 100 can set the recommended option 221 as the content value of the corresponding display option 321 in the OSD menu 320. At the same time, the display 100 temporarily stores the original display set 121 in the first storage unit 120. When the computer 200 terminates the app 211, the display 100 loads the original display set 121 from the first storage unit 120 into the OSD menu 320 and restores the recommended options 221 to the content values ​​of the original display options 321.

[0030] To clearly illustrate the changes in display options 321 on display 100 at different times, please refer to Figure 5. At the bottom of Figure 5 is a timeline, which chronologically depicts the execution of app 211 before, during, and after termination. 5 shows the content values ​​of the display options 321 of the display 100, but the display options 321 and their content values ​​in Fig. 5 are merely examples and are not limited to these. Before and after the execution of the application 211, the display 100 displays the screen of the operating system 212. For example, the contents of display options 321 are set to "brightness value: 50," "contrast value: 30," and "sharpness: 20." When application 211 is executed, display 100 adjusts display options 321 to "brightness value: 80," "contrast value: 40," and "sharpness: 10" based on the contents of recommended options 221. In this embodiment, the display 100 further includes an input unit 150, as shown in Figure 6. The first processing unit 140 is connected to the input unit 150. The input unit 150 may be, but is not limited to, a key or a joystick. A user can adjust the content value of each display option 321 in the OSD menu 320 via the input unit 150. Accordingly, the user can generate an adjustment request 151 via the input unit 150. The first processing unit 140 adjusts the content value of the original display set 121 according to the adjustment request 151. Here, the modified display options 321 are referred to as an “adjusted option set.” After the first processing unit 140 completes the adjustment of the display options 321, it stores the adjusted option set in the first storage unit 120. In this embodiment, the display 100 transmits the adjusted option set to the option provider, which stores the received adjusted option set.

[0031] Taking the cloud server 400 in FIG. 4 as an example, the cloud server 400 can store the adjusted option set and then provide the adjusted option set to other displays 100 as recommended options 221 for the other displays 100 . In addition to the above-mentioned methods for obtaining download content 131, the display 100 may further include optional sources (unsigned). In this embodiment, the optional sources include a player setting terminal 322, a server 323, a private source terminal 324, and a program menu 325.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 7. Figure 7 shows various option sources for the OSD menu 320. On the left is a player setting terminal 322, in the middle is a server 323, and on the right is a private source terminal 324. The player setting terminal 322 is a set of display options used by, for example, a professional gamer. Generally speaking, the player setting terminal 322 also lists corresponding display option sets based on the same model (i.e., the same model information 122) of the display 100. When the user selects one of the option sources, the display 100 adjusts the destination of the download content 131 according to the content of the option source. The private source terminal 324 may be the computer 200 (corresponding to the second storage unit 210) connected to the display 100, or may be the first storage unit 120. The user can save the adjusted option set to the first storage unit 120 or the second storage unit 210. The user also obtains a set of adjusted options as recommended options 221 from the private source terminal 324 via the OSD menu 320 . In addition, a program menu 325 is provided on the OSD menu 320, and the user can directly select a corresponding application 211 from the program menu 325. Note that the program menu 325 has at least one application 211 provided therein.

[0033] The user can select any app 211 from the program menu 325. In the program menu 325, the app 211 selected by the user is indicated by a thick black frame, and in this case, Game A is selected. The first processing unit 140 sends a query request to the player setting terminal 322, the server 323, or the private source terminal 324 according to the selected app 211, to obtain the recommended options 221 for the selected app 211. The server 323 may be the cloud server 400 described above. The server 323 may be a server built by a supplier of the display 100. The server 323 may also include a set of multiple display options. See the above description for the interaction between the server 323 and the display 100. Furthermore, the server 323 may also include a generative interactive function using artificial intelligence (AI). The user can send the conversation content to the server 323 in FIG. 7 via the input unit 150 or computer 200 in FIG. 6, and the cloud server 323 in FIG. 4 will select the corresponding recommendation option 221 based on the judgment of the AI ​​model.

[0034] As described above, the processing system 10 for loading a display menu, the display device, and the processing method for loading a display menu according to the present invention provide a fast switching process of corresponding display options 321 of different programs, so that the user does not need to adjust the display options 321 of the app 211 every time. Furthermore, after the application 211 is closed, the display 100 can also load the original display options 321, thereby reducing the time it takes for the user to adjust the display 100.
