    摘要: In a receiver coupled to a recording device that includes a digital storage medium, there is provided a method for providing trick mode operations for sub-channels of multiplexed streams stored on the digital storage medium. A trick mode command specifically directed to a particular sub-channel of a multiplexed stream is sent to the recording device. Frame data corresponding to the particular sub-channel is received from the recording device. Trick mode data for the particular sub-channel is extracted from the frame data.

    摘要: An external device such as a digital recording/reproduction device may be controlled via a digital data bus using auto-play and/or auto-pause functions. According to an exemplary embodiment, a method for controlling an external device includes detecting initiation of one of a disconnection from the external device and a connection to the external device, providing a pause command signal to the external device via a digital data bus if the initiation of the disconnection from the external device is detected, and providing a play command signal to the external device via the digital data bus if the initiation of the connection to the external device is detected.

    摘要: An apparatus such as a television signal receiver controls a digital recording device via a digital data bus to enable sub-channel recording and playback. According to an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus includes a processor that is operative to process signals representing a plurality of sub-channels to generate digital data for a first one of the sub-channels. The digital data includes program data and identification data for the first sub-channel. An input/output terminal is operative to provide the digital data to a digital recording device via a digital data bus.
