摘要:
A reproduced video signal of a VTR is applied to a jitter compensation circuit (100). The applied reproduced video signal is A/D converted by a phase modulated clock and after subjected to the adjustment of timing, the signal is written into a memory (4). A burst signal period is specified based on a timing of a horizontal synchronizing signal in the reproduced video signal and a jitter amount is detected based on a sampling phase of the A/D converted burst. Jitter compensation data is calculated based on this jitter amount. On this occasion, latest jitter compensation data is obtained based on the detected jitter amount and the jitter compensation data one horizontal period before. A timing for starting to write the A/D converted video data into the memory is defined based on high-order data of the calculated jitter compensation data, thereby cancelling large jitter components. On the other hand, a phase of a A/D converting clock is controlled based on low-order data of the jitter compensation data, thereby cancelling small jitter components.

Supplied selectively to a recording system circuit of a VTR are a first component signal comprising three primary color signals R, G and B and a second component signal comprising a luminance signal Y and two types of color difference signals P.sub.B and P.sub.R. The first and the second component signals pass through a group of LPFs (1, 2, 3) having the same pass characteristics and then are A/D converted at the same sampling clock. The component signal converted into a digital signal is applied to a matrix circuit 11. Respective coefficients of the matrix circuit are switched according to a type of the inputted component signal, and as a result, a second digital component signal is always outputted at a fixed delay time from the matrix circuit. Two color signal data which are over-sampled included in the second digital component signal are applied to decimation digital filters 14 and 15 to reduce data densities thereof.

In tracing a tape with a signal recording head to form tracks having digital data recorded thereon, a plurality of tracks provide each of blocks, and a usual playback data area NA and trick playback areas TH and TL are arranged on each of the tracks included in each block. The trick playback areas are enlarged to provide increment areas TA with a decrease in the bit rate of usual playback data. In recording image data as to a plurality of programs on a tape conjointly, signal recording tracks are formed on the tape, and a usual playback data area and a trick playback data area are formed on each of the tracks or on one track per plurality of tracks, as arranged longitudinally of the track, whereby the image data as to programs A to D is conjointly recorded on the same tape. In this method, a number of tracks in accordance with the number of speed multiplication for trick playback provide one TP frame, the same trick playback data is repeatedly recorded from track to track in the trick playback data areas of the tracks within the same TP frame, and the image data as to the programs A to D is cyclically recorded in such respective TP frames, each for one program.

In an automatic focusing circuit of a video camera, automatic focusing operation is performed by a focus evaluating value formed in response to a video signal obtained by an image sensing circuit (4). A first focusing motor control circuit (15) controls the rotation of a focusing motor (3) so that a focusing lens (1) is once fixed in the position where the focus evaluating value takes the maximum value. A second focusing motor control circuit (17) changes the focusing motor (3), by a predetermined very small amount, to determine the slope of the focus evaluating value, which change is repeated until inversion of the slope, that is, the maximal point is detected. As a result, the position of the focusing lens is corrected at the maximal point of the focus evaluating value. When the correction amount exceeds a predetermined value, first automatic focusing operation by the first focusing motor control circuit (15) is resumed.

In an automatic focusing circuit of a video camera, an automatic focusing operation is performed by a focus evaluating value produced in response to a video signal obtained in an image sensing circuit (4). A focusing motor control circuit (14) controls rotation of a focusing motor (3) so that a focusing lens (1) is once fixed in the position where the focus evaluating value takes the maximum value. Then, a control circuit (14) resumes the automatic focusing operation after a lapse of a second time period when it is determined that the focus evaluating value was decreased to a predetermined level during a first time period and maintained the level over the second time period, and does not resume the automatic focusing operation when it is determined that the focus evaluating value did not maintain the level. On the other hand, the control circuit (14) resumes the automatic focusing operation after a lapse of the first time period when it is determined that a time period which is more than the first time period is required until the focus evaluating value attains the predetermined level.

[Problem] To provide a charging system that levels the amount of grid power that is used, and that is capable of reducing power rates, even if charging has been frequently conducted without limiting the time zones in which charging is conducted. [Solution] A charging system is provided with: a storage unit that is charged by consuming grid power supplied by a power company, and that supplies the stored power through discharge; and a charging unit that charges batteries by consuming power supplied by grid power and the storage unit. Power companies set a power rate that is higher the greater the maximum value of the amount of power supplied for each unit of time is. Furthermore, at least a single charge carried out by the charging unit is carried out over two units of time, and the storage unit supplies power to the charging unit in at least one unit of time other than said two units of time.

A receiver has a tuner for receiving a TV broadcast program and a modem for receiving an e-mail. Also, the receiver outputs a message if there exists any unopened e-mail. In addition, the receiver has a camera for sending a videophone image. A viewer in front of the receiver is recognized, and it is determined whether or not the recognized viewer matches the addressee of the unopened e-mail. If a result of the determination is negative, a message output operation is prohibited.

An output from a solid state image sensing device spatially modulated by a color filter is A/D converted and stored in a field memory. Digital signals read from the field memory during electronic zooming are successively delayed by 1H period by means of first, second and third 1H delay elements connected in series. The output from the field memory and outputs from the first, second and third 1H delay elements are separated into luminance components and line sequential color components by first to fourth Y/C separating circuits, respectively. A first set of three primary color signals are calculated based on outputs from the first, second and third Y/C separating circuits, and a second set of three primary color signals are calculated based on outputs from the second, third and fourth Y/C separating circuits. Three primary color signals corresponding to a new display point formed along with the execution of the electronic zooming function are formed based on the calculated two sets of three primary color signals, and a luminance signal corresponding to the new display point is formed based on outputs from the second and third Y/C separating circuits.
