摘要:
An enciphering/deciphering apparatus and method are provided by which illegal copying can be prevented with a greater degree of certainty. Data enciphered by a 1394 interface (26) of a DVD player (1) is transmitted to a personal computer (2) and a magneto-optical disk apparatus (3) through a 1394 bus (11). In the magneto-optical disk apparatus (3) with which a change to a function is not open to a user, the received data is deciphered by a 1394 interface (36). In contrast, in the personal computer (2) with which a change to a function is open to a user, the enciphered data is deciphered using a time variable key (50) by a 1394 interface (49), and a result of the decipherment is further deciphered using a session key by an application section.
摘要:
A recording apparatus for an optical disc which stores a VOB, the recording apparatus performing: receiving, from an operator, an operation to specify a preceding reproduction section and a subsequent reproduction section from the VOB through an interactive screen; duplicating an end vicinity including an end point of the beginning vicinity, and a beginning vicinity including a starting point of the subsequent reproduction section; connecting the duplicated parts to yield a connected part; and writing the connected part to the optical disc in correspondence with Temp_Cell information, the reproduction sections being specified by Cell information which includes Temp_Cell_FLAG, the Temp_Cell_FLAG, 1) if set to be off, indicating a sequential reproduction of the preceding and subsequent reproduction sections, and 2)if set to be on, indicating a reproduction of the connected part between the reproduction of the preceding and subsequent reproduction sections.
摘要:
A multi-layer record carrier is for recording information by writing marks in a track. The record carrier has a first recording layer (40) and a second recording layer (41), and each recording layer has a pregroove (14) indicating the position of the track according to an opposite track path. The pregroove exhibits a modulated wobble for representing control information. A lead-in part of the pregroove has first control information for the first recording layer, and the lead-out part on the second recording layer has second control information including recording parameters for the second recording layer. The device the device has a head (22) for providing the beam and wobble detection means (32) for retrieving control information from each layer.
摘要:
A program information display method comprising the steps of: receiving program scheduling information for a plurality of programs on a plurality of channels, wherein each of said programs has associated program elements, each program element being a part of a respective one of said programs, wherein said program scheduling information includes items for identifying said program elements; selecting an item for searching for a desired program or a desired program element; searching said program scheduling information to find at least one desired program and/or desired program element, based on said selected item; and displaying at least one found program and/or program element having said selected item.
