ABSTRACT:
A video standards converter (VSC) has a first input module, a second input module, a bus attached to the first and second input modules, a first output module attached to the bus and having a first video standard, and a second output module attached to the bus and having a second video standard. The first and second video standards may be different. The first input module may be adapted to convert an analog video signal to a digital signal. The second input module may be adapted to convert an analog video signal to a digital signal. The VSC may include a picture-in-picture feature for displaying images from two different sources simultaneously.
