Abstract
A video data display controlling method and system in which an image in each image area or in each partial image area of each image area to be displayed on a display screen and designated by a user is displayed at a display quality differentiated from other areas not designated. A video data display control unit stores display state data of each displayed image in a display state management table. The video data display control unit changes the display specification or attribute of each image so as to display an image having a high user interest degree with a high display quality and display an image having a low user interest with a low display quality, and transfers the changed display specification to a display specification management table of a video data input unit. A video data input unit controls a video data compressing unit to compress digital video data in accordance with the changed display specification or attribute.

3. A video data display processing system comprising:
-
video data input device; at least one video data display device; and a signal transmission path interconnecting said video data input device and said video data display device, said video data input device including; video data sampler wherein input analog video data is sampled at a predetermined sampling timing and said sampled analog video data is converted into digital video data; a display attribute management table storing a display attribute of each image transferred from said video data display device; video data converter converting said digital video data in accordance with said display attribute stored in said display attribute table; and video data input controller coupled to said video data sampler and said video data converter, and said video data display device including; an image display; display driver coupled to said display; video data display controller controlling said display driver; a display state management table storing data representing at least the display state of each said image displayed on said display; and priority order determining means for determining as a display order a display quality priority order of said images in accordance with the data in said display state management table, wherein said video data display control unit controls said display driving means to receive from said video data input means said digital video data corresponding to a display request command and to display said received digital video data on said display, and operates to store the display state of each said image displayed on said display in said display state management table, to change the display attribute of each said image in accordance with the priority order determined by said priority order determining means, and to transfer said changed display attribute to said display attribute management table of said video data input unit. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5, 6, 7)
