Video Reproduction Display Screen Segmentation for Overlap Resolution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In video record and reproduction apparatuses, the display of information about function keys on the front panel often overlaps with the video picture, making it difficult for users to check the entire picture, as existing solutions either hide part of the picture or inefficiently use the display screen.
Innovation Solution
A reproduction apparatus with a display section that selects between three distinct screens: one for displaying a video picture and information, another for showing setup states of function keys, and a third for only displaying the video picture, allowing non-overlapping presentation and flexible switching between desired information displays.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If character information is superimposed with the video picture on the display screen, then information about the video signal and function keys can be displayed, but a part of the picture is hidden and the user cannot check the entire picture
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is segmented into multiple distinct display modes: a first display screen that shows video picture and information in different areas, a second display screen that shows setup states of function keys and video picture in different areas, and a third display screen that shows only the video picture. This segmentation allows the system to present different combinations of information and video content without overlap, resolving the contradiction between information completeness and picture visibility.
2Loss of information
If information about function keys is superimposed with the video picture, then function key information can be displayed, but a large part of the picture is hidden making it difficult for the user to check the picture
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the display functionality by providing a second display screen mode that specifically displays setup states of a plurality of keys as a key set capable of selecting a plurality of functions, and a picture corresponding to an externally input video signal or corresponding to a video signal that is reproduced by the reproduction section in different areas. This separate allocation eliminates overlap between function key information and video picture.
3Area of stationary object
If information about function keys is fixedly displayed on the display screen, then the other portion of the display screen can be used for the video picture, but the display screen is not effectively used for the video picture
Solution Approach 1:
The display control section dynamically switches between multiple display modes based on user needs: the first display screen for video picture and information, the second display screen for function key setup states and video picture, and the third display screen for video picture only. This dynamic adaptability allows the display screen to be effectively utilized for different purposes at different times, resolving the contradiction between picture area and display flexibility.

AI summary
A reproduction apparatus is disclosed. A display section displays a screen. A reproduction section reproduces a video signal recorded on a record medium. A display control section selects one of three display screens. A first display screen displays a picture corresponding to an externally input video signal or a video signal that is reproduced by the reproduction section and information about the video signal in different areas. A second display screen displays setup states of a plurality of keys as a key set that are capable of selecting a plurality of functions, and a picture corresponding to an externally input video signal or corresponding to a video signal that is reproduced by the reproduction section in different areas. A third display screen displays only a picture corresponding to an externally input video signal or corresponding to a video signal that is reproduced by the reproduction section.
