Frame rate detection method and frame rate conversion method
A method of detecting a frame rate of a source, including: receiving frames of a source provided at an input frame rate; providing the frames to a window having a predetermined length to detect the number of original frames included within the window having the length; and multiplying the input frame rate divided by the length and the number of original frames.
1. A method of detecting a frame rate of a source, comprising the steps of:
(a) receiving frames of a source provided at an input frame rate (T);
(b) providing the frames to a window having a predetermined length (k) to detect the number of original frames (n) included within the window having the length (k); and
(c) multiplying the input frame rate divided by the length (T/k) and the number of original frames (n).
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising calculating an arithmetic average of results of the step (c).
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step (b) is simultaneously performed with a plurality of windows having different lengths.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising (d) calculating an arithmetic average of results of the simultaneous performance.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
(e) providing a result of the step (d) to a plurality of time average calculators having different lengths to calculate time averages corresponding to the lengths; and
(f) calculating a weighted average of results calculated in the step (e).
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein, in the step (f), a weight of the weighted average increases as the average calculated in the step (e) converges.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein, in the step (f), a weight of the weighted average decreases as the average calculated in the step (e) does not converge.
