In related arts, as shown in FIG. 1, a video stream received by a timing controller includes several initial display frames (F1, F2 and F3), where each of the initial display frames includes an emission period S1 and a blanking period S2. To realize frequency conversion, from the initial display frame F1 to the initial display frame F3, the blanking period S2 in each of the initial display frames sequentially increases, so that the frame frequency decreases. Then, a luminance control signal generated by the timing controller according to the video stream is a pulse signal, where the pulse signal includes several pulses P.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a control method of a timing controller 2. The timing controller 2 is applied to a display apparatus. The display apparatus may further include a processor 1 and a display panel 3. The control method may include:

Step S10, receiving and storing a video stream, where the video stream includes n initial display frames (F1, F2, F3, . . . , Fn) arranged in sequence, n is greater than or equal to 2, and a frame frequency of each initial display frame sequentially increases or decreases from a first initial display frame F1 to an n-th initial display frame Fn.

Step S30, sending the luminance control signal and the n modified display frames to a display panel 3, so that the display panel 3 displays according to the modified display frames.

According to the control method in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a luminance control signal and n modified display frames are generated according to n initial display frames, where the n modified display frames respectively correspond to the n initial display frames, the luminance control signal and the n modified display frames are sent to a display panel 3, so that the display panel 3 displays according to the modified display frames, and it is avoided that the display panel 3 displays according to the initial display frames, thereby improving display effect.

In the following, each step of the control method according to the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail.

In step S10, a video stream is received and stored, where the video stream includes n initial display frames (F1, F2, F3, . . . , Fn) arranged in sequence, n is greater than or equal to 2, and a frame frequency of each initial display frame sequentially increases or decreases from a first initial display frame to an n-th initial display frame.

The video stream can be generated by the processor 1. Specifically. the display apparatus may further include a memory. The memory can store a plurality of software applications. The software applications may represent video game, virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR) applications. As a part of an execution process, the processor 1 executes the software applications to generate the video frame. The processor 1 can send the video stream to the timing controller 2 through a display interface based on eDP embedded display port standard, and the timing controller 2 can receive the video stream from the processor 1 through the display interface and store the video stream.

The video stream includes n initial display frames arranged in sequence, where n is greater than or equal to 2. Each of the n initial display frames may include an emission period S1 and a blanking period S2. The blanking period S2 may be a vertical blanking (V-blanking) period. Emission periods S1 of the n initial display frames may have a same duration.

The video streams in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 are same. In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, from the first initial display frame F1 to the n-th initial display frame Fn, the frame frequency of each initial display frame sequentially decreases, and the blanking period S2 of each initial display frame sequentially increases. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, a frame frequency of the first initial display frame F1 is 144 Hz, a frame frequency of a second initial display frame F2 is 143 Hz, a frame frequency of a third initial display frame F3 is 142 Hz, and a frame frequency of the n-th initial display frame Fn is 115.2 Hz. The frame frequency described in the present disclosure is refresh rate. From the first initial display frame F1 to the n-th initial display frame Fn, an emission period S1 of each of the initial display frames corresponds to 2000H (pixel rows). A blanking period S2 of the first initial display frame F1 corresponds to 208H, a blanking period S2 of the second initial display frame F2 corresponds to 223H (a width W1 corresponds to 15H), a blanking period S2 of the third initial display frame F3 corresponds to 239H (a width W2 corresponds to 31H), and a blanking period of the n-th initial display frame Fn corresponds to 760H. In FIG. 1, the luminance control signal includes a plurality of repeated units K1, and each repeated unit K1 correspondingly manages 552H. Each repeated unit K1 includes a pulse P and an interval Q. In another embodiment, from the first initial display frame F1 to the n-th initial display frame Fn, the frame frequency of each initial display frame sequentially increases, and the blanking period S2 of each initial display frame sequentially decreases.

In step S20, a luminance control signal and n modified display frames (XF1, XF2, XF3, . . . , XFn) are generated according to the n initial display frames. where the n modified display frames (XF1, XF2, XF3, . . . , XFn) respectively correspond to the n initial display frames (F1, F2, F3, . . . , Fn); the luminance control signal is a pulse signal and includes n control segments K, and the n control segments K respectively correspond to the n modified display frames (XF1, XF2, XF3, . . . , XFn).

It is taken as an example that, from the first initial display frame F1 to the n-th initial display frame Fn, the frame frequency of each of the initial display frames sequentially decreases, and from a second modified display frame XF2 to an n-th modified display frame XFn, frame frequencies of the modified display frame are same, and a frame frequency of a first modified display frame XF1 is greater than a frame frequency of the second modified display frame XF2. Specifically, in FIG. 4, the frame frequency of the first modified display frame XF1 is 144 Hz, and all of the frame frequencies of the second modified display frame XF2 to the n-th modified display frame XFn are 115.2 Hz. From the first modified display frame XF1 to the n-th modified display frame XFn, an emission period S1 of each of the modified display frames corresponds to 2000H (pixel rows). A blanking period S2 of the first modified display frame XF1 corresponds to 208H, and all of blanking periods S2 of the second modified display frame XF2 to the n-th modified display frame XFn correspond to 760H.

In FIG. 4. the luminance control signal includes n control segments K. and each control segment K includes a plurality of repeated units K1, and each repeated unit K1 correspondingly manages 552H. Each repeated unit K1 includes a pulse P and an interval Q. Duty ratio of the n control segments K may be same. A duty ratio is equal to a ratio between a sum of widths of all pulses P within a control segment K and a total duration of the entire control segment K. A width of a pulse P is a duration of the single pulse P. A number of pulses P in each of the n control segments K may be an integer, for example, 4, 5 or 6, etc. At least two control segments K in the n control segments K have a same number of pulses.

In an embodiment, (n−1) control segments K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2 to the n-th modified display frame XFn respectively have a same number of pulses P. In an example, the number of pulses P in the control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 and the number of pulses P in the control segment K corresponding to the second correction display frame XF2 are different. From the first initial display frame F1 to the n-th initial display frame Fn, the frame frequency of each of the initial display frames sequentially decreases, a number of pulses in a control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 is less than a number of pulses in a control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2, for example, the number of pulses in the control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 is 4, and the number of pulses in the control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2 is 5; it is taken as an example that, from the first initial display frame F1 to the n-th initial display frame Fn, the frame frequency of each of the initial display frames sequentially increases, a number of pulses in a control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 is greater than a number of pulses in a control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2.

Specifically, in FIG. 5, widths of pulses P in a single control segment K are equal; a width W5 of pulses P in a control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 is equal to a width W6 of pulses P in a control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2, that is, in FIG. 5, W5=W6; a width W7 of pulses P in a control segment K corresponding to a third modified display frame XF3 is greater than the width W6 of pulses P in the control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2, and a product of a difference between the width W7 of pulses P and the width W6 of pulses P and a number of pulses P is equal to a width W1 in FIG. 1, that is, in FIGS. 5, W7>W6, and (W7−W6)*(the number of pulses P)=W1; a width W8 of pulses P in a control segment K corresponding to a fourth modified display frame XF4 is greater than the width W7 of pulses P in the control segment K corresponding to the third modified display frame XF3, and a product of a difference between the width W8 of pulses P and the width W7 of pulses P and a number of pulses P is equal to a width W2 in FIG. 1, that is, in FIGS. 5, W8>W7, and (W8−W7)*(the number of pulses P)=W2; as can be seen, in the present embodiment of the present disclosure, an extra part caused by frame frequency change in the luminance control signal is equally allocated to respective pulses P in a next control segment K.

Specifically, in FIG. 6, widths of respective pulses P in the control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 are equal, widths of respective pulses P in the control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2 are equal, a width of each pulse P in the control segment K corresponding to the first modified display frame XF1 is equal to a width of each pulse P in the control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2; in a control segment K corresponding to a third modified display frame XF3, except for a last pulse P, a width of each of the remaining pulses P is equal to the width of each pulse in the control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2; in the control segment K corresponding to the third modified display frame XF3, a width W3 of the last pulse P is greater than a width of each of the remaining pulses P, and a difference thereof may be equal to the width W1 in FIG. 1; in a control segment K corresponding to a fourth modified display frame XF4, except for a last pulse P, a width of each of the remaining pulses P is equal to the width of each pulse in the control segment K corresponding to the second modified display frame XF2; in the control segment K corresponding to the fourth modified display frame XF4, a width W4 of the last pulse P is greater than a width of each of the remaining pulses P, and a difference thereof may be equal to the width W2 in FIG. 1; as can be seen, in the present embodiment of the present disclosure, an extra part caused by frame frequency change in the luminance control signal is allocated to a last pulse P in a next control segment K.
