Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0980059A1] With the new plasma display panel technology new kinds of artefacts can occur in video pictures. These artefacts are commonly described as "dynamic false contour effect", since they correspond to disturbances of gray levels and colors in the form of an apparition of colored edges in the picture when the observation point on the PDP screen moves. According to the invention, such an artefact is compensated by analyzing the motion in the pictures, assigning to each block of a picture a corresponding motion vector and performing a re-coding step in which the different sub-fields of a pixel are shifted to distribute the sub-fields of a pixel more closely on the eye trajectory. <IMAGE>
