USER-CONTROLLED DATA/VIDEO INTEGRATION BY A VIDEO CONTROL SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method of operating circuitry in a video control system, the method comprising:
- transferring a first video signal to drive a display device to display a data/video integration menu and receiving a first user instruction responsive to the display of the data/video integration menu, wherein the first user instruction indicates user-selected data and display positioning for the user-selected data;
transferring a request for the user-selected data in response to the first user instruction and receiving the user-selected data in response to the request;
receiving video content;
integrating the user-selected data and the video content into a second video signal that positions the user-selected data relative to the video content according to the display positioning in the first user instruction; and
transferring the second video signal to drive the display device to display the integrated video content and user-selected data with the user-selected data positioned relative to the video content according to the display positioning in the first user instruction.

Abstract
A video control system transfers a video signal to display a data/video integration menu and receives user instructions indicating user-selected data and display positioning for the user-selected data. The video control system transfers a data request and receives the user-selected data. The video control system receives video content. The video control system integrates the user-selected data and the video content into a video signal that positions the user-selected data relative to the video content according to the display positioning in the user instructions. The video control system transfers the video signal to display the integrated video content and user-selected data.
