摘要:
An apparatus and method for recording and/or reproducing digital data employing a DAT (digital audio tape recorder) adapted to record and/or reproduce data from a computer or the like in accordance with the DAT format. Main data is recorded in a main area of a track while error detecting data for the main data recorded in the main area of the track is recorded in a sub-area of the track to thereby easily detect an error in the main data.
摘要:
An apparatus for recording and/or reproducing digital data information on a recording medium which has a recorder similar to a digital audio recorder (DAT) which records digital signals in a frame made up of two oblique tracks formed by rotary heads and a controller for dividing the digital data information at a predetermined frame portion and supplying the divided information to the recorder as a digital signal, wherein since the digital data information are divided at the predetermined frame portion, they are easily re-recorded.

摘要:
Digital data is formatted and recorded in track pairs on a tape by the rotary heads of a DAT so as to have a header portion for each track which includes a frame number, error correcting code, ID and so on added to the digital data, the content of each header portion of the tracks for any given frame being equal whereby it is possible to easily detect, upon reproduction, unerased data signals due to head clogging and so on by comparing portions of the two header portions of each frame and error correcting the data from those tracks where it is determined that the compared header portions contain different data.
摘要:
A data recorder includes a recording unit for recording data having a predetermined data format and a frame address in a recording medium in units of frames each consisting of predetermined amount of data, and for forming a plurality of Partitions each consisting of a plurality of data areas in which different types of data are recorded during recording. The data recorder performs initialization of a length of at least one of the Partitions.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for recording digital data employing a DAT (digital audio tape recorder) adapted to record the data from a computer or the like in accordance with the DAT format, wherein a unit is formed of predetermined plural frames and a signal indicative of each frame number within a unit and a signal indicative of the last frame of the unit are recorded with each frame, whereby the length of the unit can be arbitrarily changed and accordingly signal processing is facilitated easily.
摘要:
A data streamer using a digital audio tape recorder (DAT) arranged such that even when the supply of incoming data to be recorded is interrupted, the data recorder is operated continuously and a data invalid signal is recorded on the tape in an area other than the data recording area, whereby the data recorder can record data at a high recording rate and in short time.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for effecting update-in-place of data that has been recorded on tape in oblique tracks using a helical-scan recording technique. The data to be updated is recorded in a block of M tracks lying between first and second continuum each at least of N tracks where N is the worst-case number of tracks required to achieve head/track alignment. The block of M tracks comprises a first series of at least N tracks, a second series of tracks containing the data, and a third series of at least P tracks. When updating the data, the block is rewritten as a whole in a single continuum with the first track of the block being written within a distance of P tracks from the last track of the first continuum.

In this invention, a predetermined amount of data is given as one frame, and data having a predetermined format is recorded for each frame. A first area recording main data and a second area recording sub data are formed in each frame. Plural types of units each consisting of a plurality of frames are set, and a number of first units from a leading end of a recording medium and the numbers of other units from the leading end of the recording medium to a trailing end of the first units are recorded in the second area of a frame constituting the unit including the trailing end, thus facilitating a high-speed search operation.
摘要:
Audio-centered information is stored on a unitary medium by using a Table-of-Contents (TOC) mechanism that specifies an actual configuration of various audio items on the medium. In particular, each one of a set of one or more Track Areas gets at least two mutually logically conforming Sub-TOCs assigned. This allows to retrieve any constituent Sub-TOC part from at least any correct copy of the Sub-TOCs. Furthermore, one or more Master-TOCs are provided for specifically pointing to each of the Sub-TOCs.
