[57] ABSTRACT
A sync signal processing device for a combined video appliance capable of directly processing a personal computer (PC) signal through a television (TV) receiver circuit to achieve the horizontal and vertical driving and deflection. The device can prevent the vertical trembling phenomena of the displayed picture and on-screen display by compensating for the sync frequency difference between the PC signal and the TV signal. According to the devices either a TV sync signal or a PC sync signal is selected in accordance with a selected TV/PC mode after the PC sync signal is frequencyconverted and the selected PC sync signal is processed through the TV sync signal processing circuit. Either the horizontal driving pulse signal form the TV sync signal processing circuit or the horizontal driving pulse signal produced from a separate horizontal oscillation circuit is selected and outputted to a horizontal output circuit in accordance with the selected TV/PC mode.
