There is provided an information record medium on which information is recorded so as to permit, even when a reading-out error occurs, subsequent reproduction, an apparatus for recording the same and an apparatus for reproducing the same. According to the recording apparatus of the present invention, there are recorded, on the information record medium of the present invention, data groups provided with data units having at least one of video information and audio information, and reproduction control information having the first identification information for identifying each data group; and the second identification information for identifying the data group to which each data unit belongs, is recorded in each data unit. According to the reproduction apparatus of the present invention, when there is selected a data group comprising data units, there are consecutively read out the first identification information for identifying the selected data group and the second identification information for identifying the data group recorded in the data unit, to which the data unit belongs, and there is reproduced information of the data unit having the second identification information identical with the first identification information.
摘要:
An information reproducing apparatus has a read device, is capable of reproducing sub picture information and is also capable of performing a highlight display of the sub picture information. In an information record medium to be reproduced by this reproducing apparatus, at least the sub picture information and reproduction control information to control a reproduction of the sub picture information are recorded on the record track such that the sub picture information and the reproduction control information are divided into a plurality of groups. Each of the groups is a predetermined unit able to be accessed by the information reproducing apparatus, and has a sub picture pack in which the sub picture information is contained and a control pack in which the reproduction control information is contained. The reproduction control information includes (i) highlight display control information prescribing at least one of the highlight display of the sub picture information and an operation control corresponding to the sub picture information and (ii) time management information indicating times to manage a start time and an end time respectively of at least one of an effective time period during which the highlight display is effective and an effective time period during which the operation control is effective.
摘要:
An information recording apparatus (SS1) is provided with: a signal process device (72) for dividing record information (R) to be recorded into a plurality of partial record informations including at least video information, for applying a predetermined signal process to each of the partial record informations to thereby output processed partial record information (Sr, 42, 43, 44), and for generating and outputting, on the basis of control information (Si) which is inputted from the external to control a reproduction of the record information, additional information (Sac, 64: PGCI) including still time information (66E) indicative of a time for performing a still picture reproduction of a final picture of each of the partial record informations which is a picture included in each of the partial record informations at a final portion thereof after reproducing each of the partial record informations, at a time of reproducing the record information, the still time information being set for each of the partial record informations; a multiplex device (75, 76) for multiplexing the processed partial record information and the additional information to thereby generate multiplexed processed record information (Sap); and a record device (77, 78) for recording the multiplexed processed record information onto an information record medium (1: DVD).
摘要:
An information recording medium is recorded with a plurality of data groups, each including at least one of video information and audio information and a reproduction permission level by which a reproduction of at least one of the video information and the audio information is permitted; and a reproduction management information including the reproduction permission range information for prescribing the range of the reproduction permission level for the data group which reproduction is permitted. When the reproduction permission level and the reproduction management information are selected, the range of the reproduction permission level of the data groups which reproduction are permitted is detected on the basis of the reproduction permission level selected. Then, the data group is reproduced when the reproduction permission level of the selected data group is included in the range of the reproduction permission level detected.

A karaoke reproducing apparatus is equipped a measure for easily checking whether a music piece selected by the user has correctly been accepted or not. The apparatus has a memory in which music title name information of each of the music pieces recorded on a recording medium has previously been stored. When one of the plurality of music pieces is selected by an operation, the music title name information of the selected music piece is soon displayed by characters. The apparatus also has memory means in which music piece classification information of each of the music pieces recorded on the recording medium has previously been stored. An item content selection command to designate the contents of at least one of a plurality of different items included in the music piece classification information is generated in accordance with an operation. The music piece corresponding to the contents of at least one item indicated by the item content selection command is searched for by using the information from the memory means.
摘要:
A karaoke reproducing apparatus for recording singing sound together with karaoke play sound, has a facility of printing information on the recorded musical program. The karaoke reproducing apparatus has a memory which contains previously stored recorded music information including at least the title, songwriter's name, and composer's name for each of musical programs recorded on the recording medium. In response to a recording start command, the recorded music information corresponding to a musical program selected by an operation is read from the memory, and output to a printer. Since recorded music information can be printed on a printed member such as a label and preserved as a record when singing sound is recorded together with karaoke play sound, the label, if adhered to a recording medium on which the sound is recorded, allows the user to readily know the recorded contents afterward. According to another aspect of the invention, a karaoke reproducing apparatus has a memory which contains copy right information on each of musical programs recorded on a recording medium. For a recording prohibited musical program, its karaoke play music can be prevented from being recorded so as to appropriately protect the copy right thereof.
摘要:
A data transmission method in which both random errors and burst errors in data transmission are correctable. A block of data is written at three-dimensional addresses in a memory in a predetermined writing order such that a three-dimensional data arrangement is formed. Check words are added in at least two of the directions as error detecting or error correcting codes to thereby form an extended three-dimensional data arrangement. The data is then read out of the extended three-dimensional data arrangement in a predetermined reading order and transmitted as data arranged one-dimensionally. On the data receiving side, the data including the check words is written into a memory in the same order as the data transmitting side to form a three-dimensional data arrangement therein, and then read out in the same order as the data writing order on the data transmitting side. The data thus read is subjected to error correction as required.
