摘要:
A digital data recording/reproducing apparatus which divides each of information data pieces into a plurality of cells, further divides each of the cells into a series of a plurality of units, and records the units. The digital data recording/reproducing apparatus has means for recording a required time for reproduction until the head position of a unit is reached, with reference to the head position of an information data cell to which a cell belongs, as a unit start time, in addition to each of the units, and means for recording a cell start time (Ts) equal to a required time for reproduction until the head position of each of the cells is reached, and a required time for reproduction (Ps) of each of the cells in a management data region.

An information recording apparatus (SSI) is provided with: a signal process device (72) for applying a predetermined signal process to a plurality of partial record information blocks constructing whole record information (R) to thereby generate processed partial record information blocks (Sr) each composed of a plurality of predetermined information units (IU), and for generating and outputting recording position information (Sac), which is to be recorded by each of predetermined reproduction units (VOBU) composing the information units, for respective one of the reproduction units. The recording position information indicates recording positions of the reproduction units corresponding to reproduction times of the partial record information blocks within a predetermined range before and after the respective one of the reproduction units on an axis of reproduction time of each of the partial record information blocks. The information recording apparatus is also provided with; a multiplex device (75, 76) for multiplexing the processed partial record information blocks and the recording position information by each of the reproduction units to thereby output multiplexed partial record information (Sap); and a record device (77, 78) for recording the multiplexed partial record information onto the information record medium.
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 medium includes: record information pieces logically independent of each other and constituting a hierarchical structure of hierarchical layers; layer information pieces for specifying one of the hierarchical layer; kind information pieces for indicating kinds of information relating to the record information pieces; a text group including layer related texts and record information related texts successively arranged in a mixed manner; text arrangement information pieces corresponding to the text group and arranged in pair with one of the layer information piece and the kind information piece corresponding to the text, the text arrangement information piece indicating a position of the text within the text group. The layer information pieces are arranged in an order in accordance with the hierarchical structure, and the kind information pieces are arranged in pair with the layer information pieces indicating the layer of the corresponding record information piece so as to specify the logical position of the corresponding record information piece within the hierarchical structure.
摘要:
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 recording medium is reproduced by an information reproducing apparatus for controlling a reproduction of record information based on a search control information recorded together with the record information, The medium includes: processed record information including a plurality of information units generated by applying a signal processing onto the record information; a search control information for searching, out of the processed record information, a reproduction record unit which is a record unit including the record information to be reproduced. The search control information is multiplexed with the processed record information. The reproduction record unit includes an initial one of the processed record information constituting the information units included in the reproduction record unit which is recorded at a recording position on a recording medium corresponding to a head portion of an area where the processed record information in the reproduction record unit is recorded.

A recording apparatus for recording information on a record medium is provided with: a controller for generating a start address of each time-unit piece of main information divided by a predetermined time unit based on time information corresponding to the main information; a processing device for coding and compressing the main information by every predetermined compression unit to generate a plurality of compression-unit pieces of compressed data; and a recording device for recording the plurality of compression-unit pieces of compressed data and the generated start address as at least a portion of access information for the main information onto the record medium.
摘要:
In a recording medium such as a DVD, various information such as video and audio information is recorded in a form of a plurality of recorded information pieces. Further, control information pieces prescribe the manner of reproducing the recorded information pieces. Copy information indicating whether or not the recorded information pieces are copy-prohibited is prepared and recorded for each of the recorded information pieces. In addition, aggregate copy information pieces indicating whether or not the recorded information pieces under the control by the control information piece are copy-prohibited are recorded. In accordance with the copy information and the aggregate copy information pieces, a copying system performs accurate copy management.
