摘要:
In a digital signal recording and reproducing apparatus, digital input data is transmitted in a transmission packet format and is recorded in a recording packet format. In a recording stage, an auxiliary signal generator (3) generates an auxiliary signal for special reproduction in the transmission packet format, and the digital and auxiliary signals are converted into respective recording packets by means of recording signal converters (5, 6). Recording means (9, 10) performs a specific recording process on the recording packets and an identification signal for identifying between the recording packets of the digital signal and of the auxiliary signal. While in a reproducing stage, reproduction signal processing means (14, 15) performs a specific reproduction process on the reproduction signal to thereby reconstruct the recording packets and the identification signal. A packet selector (16) detects the reconstructed identification signal to determine whether the recording packet is of the digital signal or of the auxiliary signal, and then the digital signal or auxiliary signal is reconstructed by a signal reconstructor (17) in the transmission format using the selected recording packet, whereby a high quality image output conforming to the transmission format used in the normal reproductions mode is also obtained during the special reproduction modes.

Input digital data are formatted into a data block composed of a predetermined amount of data, subjected to error correction encoding process, and recorded on a predetermined number of continuous tracks of a recording medium. In the error correction encoding process, the data block is subjected to an inter-track error correction encoding, an outer error correction encoding and an inner error correction encoding. In the inter-track error correction encoding, each information element to be coded is produced by symbols collected from the data which are to be recorded on different tracks of the continuous tracks. The error correction encoded data in the data block are distributed to a first predetermined recording area of each track of the continuous tracks, and parity code words produced by the inter-track error correction encoding are distributed to a second predetermined recording area of each track of the continuous tracks.

摘要:
A recording and reproducing apparatus suitable for keeping the secrecy of video and audio signals recorded in, for example, a video tape recorder for private use to a high degree. A recording portion of the recording and reproducing apparatus is provided with an identification code input device, an operation designating device and an operation circuit. Further, a reproducing portion of the recording and reproducing apparatus is provided with an operation identification device and a comparator. When recording video and audio signals, a scramble pattern for scrambling the video and audio signals is generated from an input identification code to scramble the video and audio signals. Further, a predetermined operation is performed on the input identification code to produce a first ID signal representing a result of the operation. Then, the scrambled video and audio signals, the first ID signal and an operation identification signal indicating data designating the operation are recorded. When reproducing the video and audio signals, the predetermined operation designated by the operation identification signal is performed on an identification code input from the exterior of the apparatus. Then, a second ID signal representing a result of this operation is compared with the first ID signal reproduced by the reproducing portion. Subsequently, a descrambling is performed on the scrambled video and audio signals according to a result of the comparison.
摘要:
Grouping media files via playlists on a computer-readable medium. One or more media files are selected according to a grouping criterion to define one or more playlists from the media files. A container group is associated with the playlists and stores values identifying each of the playlists associated with the container group along with references to each of the playlists.
摘要:
Optimizing operation of a media player during rendering of media files. The invention includes authoring software to create a data structure and to populate the created data structure with obtained metadata. The invention also includes rendering software to retrieve the metadata from the data structure and to identify media files to render. In one embodiment, the invention is operable as part of a compressed media format having a set of small files containing metadata, menus, and playlists in a compiled binary format designed for playback on feature-rich personal computer media players as well as low cost media players.
