The present invention includes methods and apparatus for attaining high speed coding and decoding. A first method decreases the number of memory access times by performing signal format conversion, orthogonal transform and continuous variable-length coding with predetermined small areas in a frame used as units. A second method omits orthogonal transform computation by using orthogonal transform coefficients to shorten the processing time. A third method uses additions and subtractions for orthogonal transform thereby decreasing the number of registers used and reducing the number of memory access times. The present invention further includes a decoding method for variable-length decoding wherein table size is not made larger because the number of table access times per code word is set to a maximum of 2, and plural code words are decoded by one tale access operation to attain high-speed decoding.

A video and voice signal processing apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a signal receiving circuit for receiving an input signal containing a plurality of frames, each frame having an encoded voice signal block and an encoded video signal block. The signal receiving circuit separates the encoded voice signal block from the encoded video signal block in each frame. A voice signal processor converts the encoded voice signal block into a voice signal. Also included is a video extracting circuit which decimates a plurality of encoded video signal blocks and extracts one of the encoded video signal blocks as a representative video signal. A video signal processor converts the representative video signal into a video signal.

In a data transmission apparatus for transmitting digital video and audio data, a block forming circuit forms a plurality of data blocks of transmission data composed of at least one of digital video data, digital audio data, and digital auxiliary data related to the digital video data and the digital audio data. Thereafter, a grouping circuit groups a plurality of data blocks outputted from the block forming circuit so as to form transmission group data of one transmission unit block having a time length of approximately one three-hundredth second, and then transmits the transmission group data. Further, a classifying circuit preferably classifies the transmission group data into a plurality of sections, by adding section identification data to each transmission group data.

A video image of one frame is divided into a plurality of super blocks, and each super block comprises a plurality of macro blocks. A video segment comprising five macro blocks taken out from five super blocks located apart from each other on the video image, and data compression operation is applied in the video segment. After data compression, the macro blocks in the video segment are rearranged in the original order, and are formed to corresponding SYNC block data to record on a magnetic tape.

An apparatus serving as a digital videocassette recorder (VCR) for recording analog video and audio signals as digital signals. The apparatus serves also as a digital data storage drive. The digital VCR and the storage drive share common circuitry and a common magnetic recording medium. This reduces the cost and enhances the efficiency at which tracks are used. The apparatus has a large storage capacity. The apparatus divides input digital data into two parts and performs error correction encoding for each of these two data parts to form sync blocks. These sync blocks are recorded in an audio signal recording area and a video signal recording area, respectively, on the recording medium. Error correction codes used during reading of digital data are the same as those used during recording of video and audio signals. The same track structure and the same sync block structure are used for these two modes of operation.

A specific section provided in a track is set in a DC free state, and during reproducing, accurate tracking is conducted on the basis of the crosstalk from the pilot tone superposed in the adjacent tracks in this DC free section. Alternatively, a pilot tone is generated only in a specific section provided in the track, and when reproducing, accurate tracking is effected on the basis of the crosstalk of the pilot tone in the tracks adjacent to this section. As a result, the redundancy required for tracking is notably reduced.

In recording and reproducing the digital video signals by bit rate reduction, if they are copied while being subjected to bit rate reduction, no accumulation of distortions in orthogonal transformation or bit rate reduction occurs, and moreover, copying can be done at a low data rate. On the other hand, in case of dividing the data into blocks in each page and transmitting or recording and reproducing the data by block, by concealing the error by the data having the strongest correlation out of the data located in the pages before and after the block in which error has been detected, no degradation in image quality is induced even when the scene changes between pages. Further, at the same time, by detecting the previous concealment information, if there exists a block which was previously concealed in the block in which error has at present been detected, then the data can be fully reproduced by utilizing it, and degradation in image quality can be reduced to a minimum. Also, if degradation in image quality is reduced to a minimum, then the degradation in image quality in the case of repeated copying is reduced to a minimum.

A sub-Nyguist sampling encoder and decoder has a plurality of interpolators provided in an encoder and corresponding plural interpolators provided in a decoder. Information indicating which interpolator can be used to minimize the interpolation error is superimposed on a value of a non-thinned-out pixel and transmitted from the encoder to the decoder, and the decoder receiving the information is permitted to always perform optimum interpolation. The interpolation information is superimposed on the least significant bit of the value of the non-thinned-out pixel, with the view of effecting the superimposition without increasing the amount of transmission data and without degrading quality of the video signal.
