Abstract:
An image data processing method is provided to process image data encoded with the MPEG technique and including data groups (Pack_V) each having an auxiliary recording area (AUX_V) provided therein, led by an I or P picture and including a B picture. In the case of a recording medium having appended thereto an insertion data group (EditPack_V_h) including a copy picture and/or stuffing byte laid before a data group to be spliced in a first splicing, a second splicing is done with the insertion data group being separated and removed. In this second splicing, unnecessary stuffing and copy picture are removed, to thereby prevent degradation of image quality.
Abstract:
In a packing unit (PU) composed of five sync blocks, Discrete Cosign Transform (DCT) blocks of compressed and encoded data are packed to a sync block. When same DCT blocks are not placed in a sync block, the remaining DCT blocks are temporarily placed in another sync block. In a high speed reproducing mode, a detecting portion detects whether or not the current PU mixes with data of another PU. The detected result is supplied as a flag to an unpacking portion along with a sync block. The unpacking portion removes a sync block that mixes with data of another PU. The unpacked data is supplied to a Bit Rate Reduction (BRR) decoder. The BRR decoder performs a decompressing process.
Abstract:
Based on a digital recorder/player taken as a basic apparatus and which accommodates a field frequency of 60 fields/sec or a frame frequency of 30 frames/sec, an apparatus is implemented to record or reproduce source video and audio signal originated from the basic apparatus and whose frequency is different from the field or frame frequency. The apparatus includes an input unit, a processor, and a converter provided between the input unit and the processor. The input unit accepts audio data having a specific field frequency and arranged in a specific format, and make baseband processing of the audio data. The processor is designed to process audio data having a basic field frequency (60 fields/sec) and arranged in a basic format. It operates with a clock corresponding to the sampling frequency to make error-corrective encoding of the audio data adapted to the basic format.
Abstract:
A signal reproduced from an ADV head, which is advanced a recording head is error corrected in the ECC decoder. The compression encoding process is decompressed in the compression decoder. The output signal of the ECC decoder is input to the selector. A reproduction signal of the CNF head reproducing a recording data just after recording is supplied to a selector through a ECC decoder and a compression decoder. A bypass signal from the ECC encoder of the recording side is supplied to the the ECC decoder as it's another input. In the ECC decoder, two types of data are written to two different areas of the memory. One of the data is read out selectively and supplied to the selector. The selector is switched from the output of the ADV head to the bypass signal at an in-point. The preview operation can be attained by the picture that has been compressed and decompressed.
Abstract:
There is provided a recording/reproducing apparatus that includes an image recording unit for recording moving picture, an audio recording unit for recording audio, a reproduction information recording unit for recording in parallel, at the time of recording moving picture and audio, reproduction information of moving picture and audio, and a reproducing unit reproducing moving picture and audio based on reproduction information, wherein the reproduction information recording unit records, for each chunk of audio data, audio synchronization information for synchronizing video and audio at the time of recording the reproduction information.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a data processing apparatus and method and to a program in which a user can reliably record desired data. An instructed recording start point B indicates a position at which AV data captured when the user gives an instruction to start recording is recorded. An instructed recording end point C indicates a position at which AV data captured when the user gives an instruction to finish recording is recorded. Extra pre-AV data before the instructed recording start point B and extra post-AV data after the instructed recording end point C are recorded. Accordingly, the user can record required images (sound) more reliably, and thus, the possibility of the user missing desired images (sound) is decreased. The present invention is applicable to a video image recording apparatus.

Abstract:
A buffer memory continues storing AV data having time code added thereto, which data is supplied from a time code adding unit. A drive reads the AV data stored in the buffer memory and records the AV data onto an optical disc. When an instruction to pause recording is inputted, the drive stops recording the AV data onto the optical disc, while the buffer memory continues storing newest AV data. When an instruction to resume recording is inputted within a predetermined time, the drive reads the AV data after the time of input of the pause instruction from the buffer memory, and records the AV data onto the optical disc. Thus the AV data picked up during the pause period is recorded on the optical disc. Consequently, the possibility of missing taking desired video (audio) can be reduced.
Abstract:
A reproducing apparatus comprises an error correcting means which includes first and second input circuits for inputting first and second coded data read out via different series separately, first and second frequency converters for converting the respective timing frequencies of the first and second coded data to higher frequencies, a multiplexer for generating third coded data by time-division multiplexing the first and second coded data of the higher timing frequencies, and an error corrector for executing an error correction of the third coded data. The apparatus further comprises a decode means for decoding the third coded data processed through error detection and correction, and a data output means for outputting the decoded data. The first and second coded data of different series can be inputted in parallel simultaneously due to the first and second input circuits, and such coded data of the higher timing frequencies are time-division multiplexed into third coded data of a single series, so that a process of error correction can be executed in a simplified configuration with a reduction of the power consumption.
