Vorrichtung zur Verarbeitung eines Videosignals

A first video signal processing apparatus for processing a video signal including first and second color difference signals transmitted line-sequentially for outputting simultaneously two fundamental color difference signal, used in SECAM system comprises: a time-adjusting circuit for time-adjusting the first and second color difference signals of successive first, second, and third lines each other; a mixing circuit for combining the first line with the third line of time-adjusted color difference signals at a ratio determined by detected vertical correlation error between first and third lines; a switching circuit for outputting simultaneously the second line of the second color difference signal and an output signal from the mixing circuit being interchanged each other with respect to output terminals therefor in response to a timing signal produced from the video signal. A second video signal processing apparatus used in the MAC system comprises a second vertical correlation detection circuit for detecting whether hue change exists on the side of first line or third line in addition to the circuit arrangemints of the first video processing apparatus. The second vertical correlation detecting circuit switches over second switch for selecting a mixing ratio.
