摘要:
A recording and reproducing apparatus prevents deterioration of the picture quality from being caused by overshoot, ringing or a noise component when, using a video tape recorder which can process two kinds of video signals having different aspect ratios, a video signal having a larger one of the aspect ratios is displayed on a television set. The recording and reproducing apparatus comprises a peaking circuit (19) for adding an overshoot or a ringing to a video signal, a noise canceller circuit (21) for cancelling noise from the video signal, and a comb line filter (22) for removing noise from the video signal. The peaking circuit, the noise canceller circuit and the comb line filter are capable of changing over the peaking frequency, the noise cancelling characteristic and the comb line filter characteristic thereof, respectively, in accordance with the aspect ratio of the video signal.
摘要:
A picture quality correcting device which no longer relies solely on the frequency characteristic for picture quality correction, and which prevents disturbance in the group delay characteristic occurring due to a large variation in the frequency characteristic of the luminance signal, thereby greatly decreasing deterioration of picture quality of the played-back image. A noise component from the luminance signal is extracted by a noise canceller. Then, the noise component is deducted from the luminance signal by inverting the polarity of the noise component and composing it with the luminance signal. The high-frequency component of the luminance signal released by the noise canceller is corrected by a picture-tone circuit. The amount of noise suppression of the noise canceller and the amount of correction of the high-frequency component of the picture-tone circuit is made variable according to a control voltage by adjusting a picture quality adjuster. The amount of noise suppression of the noise canceller is adjusted, for example, according to a limiting level setting voltage generated by an LLC circuit.

A data recording disc 1 contains a CD area in which a signal such as an audio signal is recorded in digital form and a video area in which a FM-modulated video signal is recorded with a digital audio signal superimposed thereon. The disc is played back at different speeds for the CD and video areas. A system controller 47 supplies drive pulses to a driver 36 which biasses the pickup 3 detection point radially across the disc and a driver 40 which translates the pickup 3 radially across the disc. The position of a data detection point of a pickup 3 is monitored and a detector 46 detects whether the pickup 3 is over the CD area or video area. The controller 47 changes the width or amplitude of the drive pulses according to the signal provided by the detector 46. This enables the system to make shorter time jumps when over the video area to compensate for the accentuation of disc eccentricity at the higher video disc playback speed.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for playback of a data recording disc which contains a CD area in which a signal such as an audio signal is recorded in digital form and a video area in which a FM-modulated video signal is recorded with a digital audio signal superimposed thereon. The position of a data detection point of a pickup is monitored, and the equalization and amplifier gain of components of a digital demodulation system are automatically changed in accordance with playback being executed of the CD area or the video area, so that a single demodulation system is used for woth digital signals from the CD area and digital signals from the video area. In addition, the frequency characteristics of components in servo systems which control the spindle motor, pickup carriage, etc. of the apparatus are automatically changed over for CD area and video area playback respectively, to provide stable servo control in spite of the high speed of rotation during video data playback.
