Bits 7–0: Character Height: this register sets the character height according to the constant character height mechanism
described in section Constant Character Height Mechanism. The value programmed in the register is equal to the
approximate number of OSD height compensated lines required on the screen divided by 4. The value is only
approximate, due to the approximation used in scaling the characters.
Example: If approximately 384 OSD lines are required on the screen (regardless of the number of image lines) then
the Character Height Control Register is programmed with the value of 81.
