A method of decoding soft input information related to a transmitted word of a linear block code and providing hard or soft output information is disclosed. For example, a feed of items is sent to a referral network site. The customization system identifies the type associated with each statement. This method includes a step for forming source and drain electrodes of each TFT and removing portions of at least the ohmic contact layer each corresponding to the TFT channel of each TFT using the same mask pattern, and a step for forming the upper electrode of each photoelectric conversion element using another mask pattern. The monitor video interface includes a plurality of video pins connected to the display circuit, and a plurality of idle pins connected to the plurality of signal pins of the camera. The reception system also includes a modified legacy VSB receiver for processing the data received from the VSB transmission system in a reverse order of the VSB transmission system by using the sequence, and a demultiplexer for demultiplexing the data from the modified legacy VSB receiver into the MPEG data and the supplemental data.
