ABSTRACT:
A system for scrambling and descrambling the image associated with a video signal employs the shifting in time of a video image after removal of vertical and horizontal synchronization, and color burst reference signals. Coded data which contains information necessary for unscrambling the video image is transmitted in the video signal itself during the vertical blanking interval. A high level of simplification in the decoding is achieved by merely restoring synchronization and color reference data without the need for returning the video image to its original timing. This system provides the significant advantage of permitting unscrambling by unlocking vertical and horizontal synchronization of the video image using inexpensive circuitry at the decoder end, while affording the operator of the transmitter the ability to select whether the unscrambled signal is recordable by a conventional video tape recorder at the receiving end.
