In programable logic, the technique to create delays is a fast clock 
and a shift register. For delaying the HSYNC one can delay so 
many pixel clock periods. This may add complexity to your circuit 
with another oscillator and a shift register. 

There are still other  methods that include LC networks and delay 
lines to get upwards to 100nS delay.
