Abstract:
Audio signals and video signals are recorded as follows. Three video PES packets, each being formed of one video frame, are combined to form a video editing unit. Then, the video editing unit and the associated audio editing unit are alternately disposed on a magnetic tape. The recorded PES packets are output as a TS as follows. A STC is initialized, and then, PSI packets of a PAT and a PMT are output. TS packets specially used for a PCR for storing the STC are then output at certain intervals. Subsequently, video PES packets are converted into TSs, and the output of the video TSs is started while synchronizing a time obtained by subtracting vbv_delay from the first I-picture DTS with the STC. Audio PES packets are converted into TSs, and the output of the audio TSs is started while synchronizing a time obtained by subtracting the start up delay from the first frame with the STC. Data streams are recorded in the following manner. The three MSBs of a sync block (SB) header indicate the type of data to be recorded in the following data area. If the data type is PES-VIDEO or PES-AUDIO, a full/partial flag is recorded in the fourth MSB of the SB header. In the subsequent four LSBs, the continuity count value representing the continuity of the same type of SBs is recorded.
Abstract:
When the head of a data pack that can be a start point of consecutive recording is included in an ECC (error correcting code) bank, data indicating this is set in an ECCTB (error correctly code two-B picture). When the head of a data pack that can be a start point of consecutive recording is not included in the ECC bank, data indicating this is set in the ECCTB. Thus, when performing consecutive recording, a recording apparatus refers to contents of the ECCTBs to detect a consecutive recording start, thereby allowing selection of the point closest to a point where a user desires to start consecutive recording, and the user starts the consecutive recording at the detected point.

Abstract:
An information recording apparatus for recording information on a predetermined recording medium includes a creation unit for creating search data from main image data; and a recording unit for recording the search data created by the creation unit and the main image data on the recording medium, wherein the creation unit creates first data by which an image can be displayed over one entire one screen, and second data for enhancing the image quality of the image displayed by the first data each as the search data, and the recording unit records the first data and the second data in a predetermined sequence.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to perform speedy editing to produce images including desired features. A disc video monitor program 161 sets an essence mark, which is digital mark data indicating a feature of an image, in metadata related to video content data for displaying images. A video display program 172 controls the display of images based on the video content data. An essence-mark display program 171 controls the display of the temporal position of the image having the feature indicated by the digital mark data based on the metadata in which the essence mark, which is digital mark data, is set. The video-image editing apparatus of the present invention is applicable to a filming terminal device.

Abstract:
The present invention provides an image data processing method of recording image data coded with the MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) technique to a recording medium. For transition of the bit occupancy in a VBV buffer to a target value, the initial value of a bit occupancy in a VBV buffer is calculated on the basis of auxiliary data read from a recording medium, a comparison is made between the target and initial values of the bit occupancy, and the number of bits for assignment to each GOP of to-be-coded image data correspondingly to the result of comparison.
Abstract:
A video tape recorder for recording high definition television video signals onto a magnetic tape, and recording at least reproduction standard management information in the order of pictures of video data in a main sector, and in the order of pictures of compressed video data in a subcode sector. Search data is recorded on the basis of time management information of video data at the time of decoding, while display data is recorded on the basis of time management information on reproduction and output of video data.
Abstract:
Pictures in number indicated by a value (3 in one example) of M in a GOP structure are set as one unit. AUX data (denoted by U in FIG. 32) related to those pictures, audio data (denoted by A in FIG. 32) corresponding to those pictures, and AUX data (denoted by X in FIG. 32) related to the audio data are arranged together at the head of 16 tracks that undergo interleaving. Subsequent to those data, one unit of pictures (3 pictures in one example) is arranged. An HD video signal and an HD audio signal can be recorded and played back with certainty.
