operation requires decrementing the graphics controller’s new VSYNC_START
register value to (VSYNC_START
would force the controller to issue its VSYNC* digital signal’s leading edge five
lines earlier in time than before. The software engineer must also subtract five
lines to the controller’s VSYNC_END register to maintain the same VSYNC*
pulse duration (nominally two-to-six lines). Within the encoder, the
V_BLANKI[7:0] register must be incremented by 5 lines so the encoder can
accommodate the five more lines of blanking required to start the field and still
display the original active area of the frame.
offsets to the values explained for the Right and Down operations. Remember that
SYNC_START/END always works in the opposite direction of picture
movement. If the Position control works correctly, the end user should see a
gradual change to either the X and Y position of the active image after each
corresponding mouse click.
This control pad is used by the end-user to change the active X and Y dimensions
of the TV Out picture. This is done by modifying the amount of horizontal (X
dimension) and vertical (Y dimension) overscan compensation. Ideally, there
should be four directional controls included: two for horizontal adjustment and
two for vertical adjustment. For practical usage, the maximum amounts of
Horizontal Overscan Compensation (HOC) and Vertical Overscan Compensation
(VOC) should be limited to 25 percent (or three mouse clicks in any direction).
The minimal amounts of HOC and VOC should be capped at 10 percent since
percentages smaller than this often make the TV image so large that all edges are
behind the bezel of the TV, rendering the outer regions of the Windows desktop

other. However, the TV Out picture looks best when HOC and VOC are equal or
within 2 percent of each other. Having realized this fact, Conexant has
incorporated many autoconfiguration modes that have a minimal difference (i.e.,
Delta) between the HOC and VOC ratios.
Now, assume the end-user clicked on the Down button once. This action
