A picture signal encoding of a predictive encoding type. The encoding process is performed so that a summation between a quantized error of codes respectively representing at least two slots in one of N (N is an integer greater than 1) quantizing patterns, for current value data and a quantized error to be obtained when next value data is coded according to at least two quantizing patterns.

A method for recording and reproducing a video format signal on and from a recording medium. A two-dimensional screen is divided based on the video format signal into a plurality of blocks with one of them being divided into a plurality of subblocks, and video information or information compressed on a time basis is inserted into each of the subblocks. Video information and control information are inserted in the remaining blocks while recording the information on the recording medium. The information in at least one of the subblocks is written into memory in a reproduction mode, and thereafter the information in the at least one subblock is read out of the memory while expanding the information on a time basis, and simultaneously writing the information next to the information in the at least one subblock into the memory, whereby the information in the at least one subblock and the next information can successively be reproduced.

An image processing apparatus includes a shot splitting unit that splits a moving image into a plurality of shots each including a plurality of sequential frames; a shot detecting unit that detects, among the shots, a second shot similar to a first shot that is to be encoded; a first shot-generating unit that generates a third shot by correcting a time length of the second shot; a second shot-generating unit that generates a fourth shot by performing motion compensation using at least one of the first shot and the third shot; and an encoding unit that encodes a difference between the first shot and the fourth shot.

An information record medium (1: DVD) has a record track recorded with record information to be reproduced by an information reproducing apparatus (S2). The information reproducing apparatus is provided with a read device (80), and performs a reproduction while moving the read device along the record track at a predetermined reading linear velocity. The record information is divided into a plurality of first data groups (30: VOBU), each of which is a unit able to be accessed by the information reproducing apparatus, recorded on the record track. Lowest reading rate information (212) indicates a minimum requirement of a reading rate for the information reproducing apparatus to reproduce a reproduction unit, which comprises at least one of the first data groups and which is to be reproduced by the information reproducing apparatus such that a sequential logical meaning of the reproduction unit is continuous. The lowest reading rate information is recorded on the record track at one portion (LI, 11, 41) different from another portion where the record information is recorded.
摘要:
A transmitting method of digital data whereby information data can be reproduced at a high precision. In order to retain digital data in sectors comprising a plurality of sync frames and sequentially transmit, the sync frame is comprised of the sync signal and the run length limited code which satisfies the limitations of the minimum run length and the maximum run length, and the sync signal includes the sync pattern constituted by a bit pattern of a run length that is longer than the maximum run length by only 3T and addition bit patterns which are arranged before and after the bit pattern and each of which has a urn length that is longer than the minimum run length. The sync signal includes a specific code which indicates a position in the sector and which enables the DC control to be performed.

Even when a movie or the like is distributed in an electronic state, reproduction control can be effectively performed for each region at a distribution destination, thereby providing a reproduction control program capable of widely distributing distributed information in an effective manner.The reproduction control program acquires distribution information which is distributed along with region information indicating a reproduction permitting region, and the reproduction control program is installed to a terminal T to operate the terminal T for reproducing the acquired distribution information. The region information indicating the reproduction permitting region based on the reproduction control program is stored in the terminal T, and it is confirmed whether or not a coincidence is made between a region indicated by the stored region information and a region indicated by stream region information included in the acquired distribution information. The distribution information is reproduced only when the region indicated by the region information and the region indicated by the stream region information are coincident with each other.

An information recording apparatus (SS1) is provided with: a signal process device (72) for applying a predetermined signal process to record information (R), which is to be recorded onto an information record medium (1: DVD) and is inputted from the external, to output processed record information (Sr), and for dividing control information (Si), which corresponds to the record information and is inputted from the external, into search control information (Sdsi, DSI), which is information to search a record position of the record information to be reproduced at a time of reproducing the record information, and reproduction display control information (Spci, PCI), which is information to control a reproduced display of the record information at the time of reproducing the record information, to output the search control information and the reproduction display control information; a multiplex device (75, 76) for multiplexing the processed record information, the search control information and the reproduction display control information to output multiplexed record information (Sap); and a record device (77, 78) for recording the multiplexed record information onto the information record medium.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for embedding additional information embeds plural pieces of additional information on a signal as electronic watermark information. In detail, plural pieces of additional information to be embedded on a signal are generated, the additional information is converted into electronic watermark information, the sizes of embedding parts for respective electronic watermark information are defined under control, and the electronic watermark information is embedded on the signal based on the control signal. Therefore, the additional information are embedded so that additional information having a higher significance degree can be more reliably and rapidly detected.
摘要:
In a digital-watermark superposing apparatus and a digital-watermark detecting apparatus, a plurality of DCT coefficients for respective frequency components are generated by subjecting video data to a two-dimensional DCT transform for each pixel block consisting of a predetermined number of pixels, and the value of at least one of the DCT coefficients is quantized in accordance with a quantization rule corresponding to the information so as to obtain a quantized DCT coefficient. A two-dimensional inverse DCT transform is performed with respect to the DCT coefficients in which the at least one DCT coefficient thereof is replaced with the quantized DCT coefficient, so as to obtain digital-watermark superposed video data in which the digital watermark corresponding to the information has been superposed on the video data. At this juncture, the digital-watermark superposed video data is selected and outputted concerning a section in which a video pattern due to the video data is not flatter than a predetermined video pattern, while, instead of the digital-watermark superposed video data, the video data is selected and outputted as it is concerning a section in which the video pattern due to the video data is flatter than the predetermined video pattern.
