1. A video output apparatus comprising:
- video data processing means for processing plural pieces of video data of different types and outputting the resulting video data to a monitor;
video processing delay detecting means for detecting delay by deciding whether or not processing for the plural pieces of video data performed by the video data processing means is completed in real time when it is output to the monitor; and
video data processing control means for controlling the video data processing means so that the processing performed by the video data processing means which is to be allocated for one line period is reduced when the video processing delay detecting means detects delay.

Abstract
A video output apparatus comprises: video data processor for processing plural pieces of video data of different types and outputting the resulting video data to a monitor; video processing delay detector for detecting whether processing for the plural pieces of video data performed by the video data processor is completed in real time when it is output to the monitor; and video data processing controller for controlling the video data processor so that the processing performed by the video data processor which is allocated for on line period is reduced when the video processing delay detector detects delay in processing.

the video data processing control means controls the video data processing means by setting a priority of the video data processing when the processing is reduced. -
3. The video output apparatus of claim 2 wherein
the priority is determined according to distance from a user'"'"'s view point to a display image on the monitor. -
4. The video output apparatus of claim 2 wherein
the priority is determined according to display information set in the video data. -
5. The video output apparatus of claim 1 wherein at least one of the processing for the plural pieces of video data to be performed during one line period is divided into plural processes.
-
6. The video output apparatus of claim 1 wherein
the video processing delay detecting means detects delay in units, each unit comprising either a predetermined number of fields or a predetermined number of frames. -
7. The video output apparatus of claim 1 wherein
the video processing delay detecting means detects delay in units, each unit comprising a predetermined number of lines. -
8. The video output apparatus of claim 1 wherein
the video data processing control means skips at least one part of video data processing among the processing for the plural pieces of video data, to reduce the processing. -
9. The video output apparatus of claim 5 wherein
the video data processing control means skips at least one part of video data processing among the processing for the plural pieces of video data, to reduce the processing.
