摘要:
A formatting apparatus authenticates an information signal prior to mass duplication of the signal by analyzing the signal to detect the presence or absence of a security signal therein, inserting a security signal into the information signal, and recording the modified signal only if no security signal was detected.

Unauthorized copying of a digital video program is prevented by designating a first block and a second block of data in a bit stream encoded by a fixed length code. A portion of the first block is selected as key data and inserted into the second block to indicate that the digital video program is a copy and to prevent illegal copying.

Recording unit is operative so that, in the case of carrying out high speed reproduction, switch is switched by high speed reproduction control signal inputted from the external, and a signal read out from the recording unit is inputted to VLD and formatter. High speed reproduction control signal is inputted to recording unit, switch and counter. Recording unit reproduces and outputs predetermined data in accordance with high speed reproduction control signal. At VLD, variable length encoding of MPEG is released, and syntax analysis is carried out. Counter counts the number of frames to be transmitted. Moreover, counter outputs temporal.sub.-- reference in accordance with reproduction speed indicated by high speed reproduction control signal. Header converter rewrites temporal.sub.-- reference in picture header in accordance with temporal.sub.-- reference outputted from counter. From facts as described above, high speed reproduction of moving picture can be made.

A method and apparatus for encoding signals so as to form a multiplexed signal and for decoding the same. The apparatus may include an encoding unit and a decoding unit. The encoding unit may include a device for encoding a dynamic image signal so as to form a video bit stream, a device for encoding superimposed data so as to form bit map data, a device for encoding the bit map data and coordinates of a plurality of regions so as to form a bit stream of each respective region, a device for encoding the bit stream of each of the regions and coordinates of a page layer so as to form a bit stream of a page layer. The page layer specifies information indicative of start and end positions of a plurality of regions such that each of the regions are within a display area, and a device for multiplexing the bit stream of the page layer and the video bit stream. The decoding unit may include a device for separating the multiplexed bit stream into the video bit stream and the superimposed data bit stream, a device for decoding the video bit stream so as to form the dynamic image signal, a device receiving the superimposed data bit stream for obtaining coordinates of a page layer, coordinates of a plurality of regions and bit map data therefrom and for decoding the bit map data, a device for selecting one of the decoded bit map data and the dynamic image signal, and a control device.
摘要:
An encoder considers a frame representing a picture as comprised of areas. For each area, the encoder decides which of frame-based or field-based orthogonal transformation will be most efficient at reducing spatial redundancy in that area. For each area, the encoder decides which of frame-based or field-based predictive encoding will be most efficient at reducing temporal redundancy in that area. The encoder encodes each area of the picture frame using the most efficient orthogonal transformation technique and using the most efficient predictive encoding technique to produce an encoded signal. A decoder decodes the encoded signal. The encoded signal is recorded on a recording medium, transmitted over a transmission channel, or broadcast.

摘要:
Digital video data encoder and decoder operate to enable the low and high speed reproduction of variable rate encoded digital video data by reproducing and decoding intraframe encoded frames that are identified by previously reproduced intraframe encoded frames. In the encoder, digital video data is variable rate encoded, for example, intraframe and interframe encoded, entry points (i.e., beginning positions) of selected encoded video data are identified and which represent video frames that occur at predetermined intervals of time (e.g., 1, 2 and 4 seconds) in the video picture. Entry point data that identify these positions are generated and added to the encoded video data before the video data is recorded on a record medium. When the encoded data is reproduced from the record medium, the entry point data is extracted therefrom and stored, and a successive intraframe encoded frame identified by the extracted entry point data is reproduced and decoded. The invention further provides for a record medium having thereon the encoded digital video data, and also provides for an encoder and corresponding decoder which encode and decode, respectively, digital still image and audio data in which entry points refer to each of the still images and also to particular intervals of time of the audio data.
