摘要:
An apparatus for generating a recording signal by converting an image signal and outputting the generated recording signal to an external device is provided. The image signal included image data corresponding to an image to be displayed on a display. The image data includes a plurality of data pieces each corresponding to a different one of a plurality of image elements which compose the image. The apparatus includes: a control information placing device for placing a control information piece onto one of the plurality of data pieces corresponding to one of the plurality of image elements that is to be located at an outer edge portion of the image when the image is displayed on the display screen; and a generating device for generating the recording signal including the control information piece. The control information piece includes information to control an operation of the external device.

An apparatus for reading record information from a recording disk and outputting the read record information in order to reproduce the record information recorded on the recording disk, is provided. The record information includes: image information which represents an image or a picture; identification information which represents any one of at least never copy and copy free. The never copy indicates that copying of the record information is prohibited. The copy free indicates that the copying of the record information is permitted. The apparatus comprises: a read device for reading the record information from the recording disk; a first determination device for determining whether the identification information included in the read record information indicates the never copy or the copy free; a second determination device for determining whether the recording disk is a recording disk of a recordable type or a recording disk of a read-only type; an output control device for determining on the basis of determinations of the first determination device and the second determination device whether outputting the read record information is permitted or prohibited; and an output device for outputting the read record information in accordance with a determination of the output control device.

Even when a movie or the like is distributed in an electronic state, reproduction control can be effectively performed for each region at a distribution destination, thereby providing a reproduction control program capable of widely distributing distributed information in an effective manner.The reproduction control program acquires distribution information which is distributed along with region information indicating a reproduction permitting region, and the reproduction control program is installed to a terminal T to operate the terminal T for reproducing the acquired distribution information. The region information indicating the reproduction permitting region based on the reproduction control program is stored in the terminal T, and it is confirmed whether or not a coincidence is made between a region indicated by the stored region information and a region indicated by stream region information included in the acquired distribution information. The distribution information is reproduced only when the region indicated by the region information and the region indicated by the stream region information are coincident with each other.

In an information recording medium, positions of pits are modulated in a direction intersecting a direction of reading of pits, so that a predetermined information is recorded. In this information recording medium, the whole of the predetermined information or a part of the predetermined information is randomized through the used of spread spectrum.

摘要:
A system comprising a recording apparatus for recording record information onto a recording medium and a reproducing apparatus for reading the record information from the recording medium and outputting it to reproduce, is provided. The record information includes: image information; a first identification information which represents any one of never copy, one copy and copy free; and a second identification information which represents either the never copy or the one copy. The never copy indicates copying is prohibited. The one copy indicates copying is once permitted. The copy free indicates copying is permitted. The recording apparatus controls recording the record information, and determines whether or not the record information is to be encrypted based upon the first identification information and the second identification information. The reproducing apparatus controls outputting the record information based upon the first identification information and whether the record information has been encrypted or not.

An example outputting apparatus repeatedly transmits contents such as music or movies reproduced a player while attaching order information such as sector address numbers to the contents. An example recording apparatus records the contents on a recording medium such as a DVD based on the transmitted order information.

Encrypted music information or the like and encryption processing information itself employed for the encrypting is transmitted from a set top box (BX) to a recorder (R) via a serial bus (B) after decoded, and the music information or the like is recorded in a DVD-R (1). Upon this recording, the music information encoded by employing an asynchronous transmission region in the IEEE 1394 standard that is a standard with which the serial bus (B) conforms is transmitted at a high speed. On the other hand, encode processing information encoded by employing an isochronous transmission region in the IEEE 1394 standard is transmitted at a 1-fold speed.

In an electronic apparatus control system provided with: a plurality of electronic apparatuses connected to a network covering a predetermined area; and a controller for controlling these electronic apparatuses, the controller (11) is provided with: a generating device for generating a group key peculiar to the network (18) in order to encrypt the information flowing through the network (18); and a wireless unit (21) for transmitting the generated group key to a plurality of the electronic apparatuses. The electronic apparatus is provided with: a memory device for storing the group key transmitted; an encrypting device for encrypting the information flowing through the network (18) using the group key; and a decoding device for decoding the encrypted information using the group key. Owing to this construction, it is possible to present a copy protection improved in the maintainability and reduced in the cost, for protecting copyright effectively even in a case that information is flown out of the network (18).
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic watermark embedding apparatus, an electronic watermark embedding method, a record medium having an electronic watermark capable of securely detecting the watermark in the case of performing the noise reduction process or data compression process to the information on the contents and a manufacturing method of record medium. The electronic watermark embedding apparatus is provided with an embedding device for embedding an electronic watermark comprised of a signal generated based on a predetermined rule into contents comprised of digital information; a variation device for varying intensity of the electronic watermark to be embedded into the contents; and a controlling device for controlling the variation device so as to change the intensity of the electronic watermark, and wherein the controlling device for controlling the variation means so as to increase the intensity of the electronic watermark at intervals are provided.
