摘要:
When a PCM signal having a sampling frequency of 32 KHz, a quantization of 12 bits per sample, and 4 channel is to be recorded onto tape, the PCM signal undergoes, prior to being recorded onto the tape, such predetermined data dispersion that burst errors incurred in the reproduction operation may be compensated.

Error detection/correction codes appended to a recording signal for a PCM recorder are so arranged as to ensure detection and/or correction of a dropout or error of a data block address in the reproduction of the recording signal. In recording digital signals on a recording medium, the digital signals are formatted in n-word blocks, each block further including a sync signal for providing a reference timing for the reproduction of the signal, control data related to the digital signals, a data block address for identifying the block of n-words, an error detection code for detecting an error in the control data and the block address, and an error detection/correction code for error detection and/or correction for the block address and the n-words. A recording system includes an error detection/correction code generating circuit which generates error detection/correction codes using a Reed Solomon code or b-adjacent code. The generated error detection/correction codes are combined by a multiplexer so that a recording signal is arranged, and recorded on the recording medium.
摘要:
Digital companding without range bits involves comparison of a digital input with predetermined boundaries separating a plurality of numerical ranges, detection of a numerical range to which the digital input belongs, generation of an off-set unique to each numerical range, bit-shifting of the digital input, and addition of the bit-shifted input with the generated off-set to provide a companded digital output which is in one-to-one correspondence to the digital input. The off-set values are stored in a memory.

A content transmission device for transmitting a digital content to other device connected via a network, including a receiving unit that receives the digital content accompanied with a piece of copy control information indicating a condition of restricting the digital content from being copied, a communication processing unit that transmits and receives the digital content or various data, or control commands to and from the other device, a connection determining unit that determines whether the other device is present on an intra-residential network connected by the content transmission device, and a control unit that controls the receiving unit, the communication processing unit, and the connection determining unit, in which the control unit does not output the digital content received by the receiving unit from the communication processing unit to the other device in a case where the other device is determined not to be installed at an inside of a residence by using the connection determining unit, thereby, a user who owns a device used in an mobile environment of a note type PC or a portable terminal satisfies a request for intending to access to the content in a household from a traveling destination or in a train in the midst of commutation by using the device.
摘要:
A video signal input-output circuit and a recording-reproduction apparatus in which a digitally compressed video signal input in packet form can be recorded and reproduced efficiently and in stable fashion. In this apparatus, a clock reference is detected from a packet signal containing the clock reference and a digitally compressed video signal, a time stamp for a packet is generated using a clock signal in phase with the clock reference and added to the particular packet, and the packet signals with the time stamp added thereto are recorded closely to each other in a data storage element such as a magnetic recording medium. At playback, the packet interval is output by being restored to the original length on the basis of the time stamp added to the packet in store.

This invention enhances usability while performing copy control when recording a digital broadcast program specified as “Copy One Generation”. In this copy control method, digital contents received by a first recording apparatus are copied to a second recording apparatus via a network interface and to a third recording apparatus via a local interface according to the copy control information received by the first recording apparatus. When the received control information indicates “Copy Free with Limit of the Number” permitting a predetermined copy number of multiple copies, the received digital contents can be recorded and managed in the first recording apparatus to be copied up to the predetermined copy number. The digital contents copied to the second recording apparatus are managed as “No More Copies”, and the digital contents copied to the third recording apparatus are managed as “No More Copies and No Move”.
摘要:
A data reproduction method and apparatus includes first circuitry to produce an information signal from a storage medium. The information signal includes copy control information. Detection circuitry is provided to detect the copy control information. Control circuitry is provided to operate the first circuitry to selectively output the information signal based on the detection result of the detection circuitry.
摘要:
The usability while performing copy control can be enhanced in the case of recording a digital broadcast program for which recording of one generation is permitted (“Copy One Generation”). When an output route in the case of copying digital contents from a first recording apparatus to a second recording apparatus is via LAN, authentication is executed between the first recording apparatus and the second recording apparatus. The capability of a move process with a predetermined copy number of multiple copies being kept is confirmed, and dedicated key information is shared to be used for encryption and decryption of the digital contents moved with the predetermined copy number of multiple copies being kept. Then, the digital contents recorded and managed in the first recording apparatus is added with the information about the predetermined copy number of multiple copies, and transmitted.
摘要:
In a content transmitting method in a content transmitting apparatus, wherein the content transmitting apparatus adds copy control information for indicating to execute a recoding control with either one of “copy can be made only one (1) generation” or “number of times of copying is limited”, on number-limited copy target content, when distributing the number-limited copy target content, which can be copied within a region of limited number of pieces.
摘要:
It is configured to receive digital content and output control information for controlling output of the relevant digital content, and when the output control information received shows that picture subjected to high resolution transformation using super-resolution technology is not allowed to be digitally outputted, to output the digital content to a display means in resolution equal to or lower than resolution of picture received.
