I'm sure more than one brand did this, but at least Philips. Possibly already in the GFL chassis mid to late 1990's but surely in the MG chassis series.

Edit after reading last post above: In 100Hz chassis this is relatively simple, I'm not sure about 50Hz chassis but the painter chip in the A10 was reasonably powerfulfor its time.

I'm also sure that Sony did this, so that might be the one you remember.
