1. A system comprising:
- first means for producing a first timing signal in response to a synchronization signal component of a video signal;
second means for producing a second timing signal in response to said synchronization signal component of said video signal;
a decoder for decoding data included in a data signal component of said video signal in response to said first timing signal during a first mode of operation of said system and for decoding data included in said data signal component of said video signal in response to said second timing signal during a second mode of operation of said system; and
control means for disabling said first means during said second mode of operation, thereby preventing generation of said first timing signal by said first means during said second mode of operation.

Abstract
A decoder for decoding data from a data signal component of a television signal, such as closed caption data, decodes the data signal in response to a deflection signal during a normal mode of operation of a television receiver and in response to separated sync signal during a standby mode of operation of the television receiver.
