    摘要: A broadcast receiver includes a tuner section for receiving a broadcast program, an MPEG decoder 126 for converting a signal coming from the tuner section into a given format, and a hard disk drive (HDD) for recording the converted digital signal. In the broadcast receiver, a HDD medium of the HDD for recording the received broadcast program has, separately, a stream area for storing stream data as a video/audio signal, and a management data area for storing management data other than the stream data, and these areas are formatted by each different given unit. With such a structure, the broadcast receiver becomes highly-usable, requiring less time for the search operation on an HDD at the time of system startup. There is also a method for recording broadcast programs received by the broadcast receiver, and an information recorder for such use.

    摘要: A highly-operable receiver, which shortens search operations on an HDD upon startup, a recording method thereof, and an information recorder therefor are described. The broadcast receiver includes a tuner portion for receiving a broadcast program, an MPEG decoder for converting a signal from the tuner portion to a predetermined format, and a hard disk drive (HDD) for recording the converted digital signal. Whether power was turned off normally at last use is determined when the power supply is turned on. If the power supply was turned off normally at last use, a bitmap for the HDD recorded upon the last power shut-off is input; if not, new bitmap information is created. Thus, the writing/reading operations of the HDD are better managed.

    摘要: In a data recording/reproducing unit, an identification of the storage unit is validated, to prevent circumvention of copy protection by unauthorized replacement of the storage unit. For example, when the power of a television receiver 100 is turned on for the first time, the controller 150 reads out a HDD serial number stored in a HDD 140, and then writes the number to a flash memory 160. While the receiver 100 is ON, the controller 150 acquires the HDD serial number stored in the HDD 140 periodically or every time there is an attempt to access the HDD 140. Then, the controller 150 compares the acquired HDD serial number to the HDD serial number in the flash memory 160. If the result of the judgment is negative, the controller 150 disallows the use of the HDD 140.

    摘要翻译: 在数据记录/再现单元中,验证存储单元的标识,以防止通过未经授权的更换存储单元避免复制保护。 例如,当第一次打开电视接收机100的电源时,控制器150读出存储在HDD 140中的HDD序列号,然后将该号码写入闪存160.当接收机100是 ON时,控制器150周期性地或每次尝试访问HDD 140时获取存储在HDD 140中的HDD序列号。然后,控制器150将所获取的HDD序列号与闪存160中的HDD序列号进行比较 如果判断结果为否定,则控制器150不允许使用HDD 140。

    摘要: In digital broadcast recording for automatically recording broadcasts on a channel selected from a plurality of digital broadcast programs on a recording medium, in accordance with a booking that is performed by specifying a time zone and giving a command to record a stream of broadcast contents on the user-selected channel during the time zone, the stream of broadcast contents on the channel is recorded, separated into a plurality of units for the programs broadcasted during the time zone. Thus, the recorded stream can be handled program by program in a later editing or playback operation, despite that it was recorded by booked recording for which only the time zone was specified, and thus the user-friendliness is improved.

    摘要: It is necessary to provide a data recording apparatus that records a digital broadcast and facilitates the editing of recorded data. It is also necessary to provide a data recording apparatus that makes it possible to achieve high-quality playback of edited data with increased ease. In accomplishing these and objects, there is provided a data recording apparatus for recording a digital broadcast. The data recording apparatus comprises first recording means for recording externally input stream data, which is in transport stream (TS) format, onto a recording medium, and second recording means for generating data in program stream (PS) format in accordance with the TS format data and recording the generated PS format data onto the recording medium. The PS format data is edited in such a manner that the associated editing information is reflected in TS format data playback.
