    摘要: Apparatus is provided for use in a digital video signal playback device of the type having a record medium in which plural channels of digital video signals are recorded in a like plurality of tracks. Plural transducers, such as playback heads, are associated with respective ones of the channels and reproduce the digital video signals from the plural tracks, each transducer normally reproducing a respective, predetermined channel of the digital video signals. A detector detects the particular channel with which the digital video signal reproduced by each transducer is associated. A signal interchanger is provided with plural channel outputs and is responsive to the detector for directing digital video signals which have been reproduced by transducers associated with channels which differ from the channels of the reproduced digital video signals to the proper channel outputs as determined by the detector. Thus, regardless of the particular transducer which reproduces the digital video signals from a track, that digital video signal nevertheless is supplied to its proper channel output.

The encoded video data is recorded in the second region of the DRAM, sequentially transferred to a main memory of a notebook type PC, and transmitted to a network via a communication I/F card. The video data received from the network is stored once in the main memory, transferred to the fourth region of the DRAM of the video card, decoded at the signal processing unit, and recorded in the third region of the DRAM. Immediately before the next capture operation, the video data which was fetched into the first region of the DRAM before this and the received video data which has been recorded in the third region are displayed on a display via a VGA controller.

    摘要: Digital data is recorded on a slant track of a magnetic tape by a rotary head, in which the sampling frequency of the digital data can be changed in accordance with the nature of the digital data. The recording apparatus comprises a memory for writing the digital data in response to an input clock signal which is synchronized with the sampling frequency and reading the digital data therefrom in response to a system clock signal; and a circuit for converting the digital data read out from the memory into a data block having such a capacity that the data block can be recorded during one scan of the rotary head. Even when the data rate of the input digital signal is unclear, if the data rate lies within a range where the buffer memory does not overflow, the apparatus can continuously record the input digital signal. Thus, the apparatus can easily interface with an external computer.

    摘要: An identification signal is generated to identify a digital signal, such as a digital video signal reproduced by a digital video tape recorder (DVTR), as odd or even. Commencing periodically, such as at the onset of each field interval, identification signals occurring at intervals in the digital signal are sampled, and an odd plurality (e.g., three) thereof determined to be error-free are stored. A synthetic identification signal is generated whose value is determined by the majority of the stored identification signals. The generated signal is then stored, for example, in a cascade of flip-flops, to provide a second synthetic identification signal from the onset of each field interval until the majority of the sampled identification signals is determined. In a circuit for processing a digital video signal, an identification signal for identifying line intervals as even or odd is derived by taking the modulo-two sum of field and frame identification signals to determine the state of the line identification signal at the beginning of each field, and thereafter inverting the identification signal at each line interval.
