A crosstalk cancelling circuit for a VTR eliminates adjacent-track crosstalk in a playback down-converted chrominance signal, with the resultant signal and a playback luminance signal being supplied to respective output terminals for re-recording by another VTR. Substantially improved display image quality is obtained from the re-recorded video signals, by comparison with prior art methods.

A video signal recording and playback apparatus in which in a record mode operation a frequency-modulated luminance signal and a carrier chrominance signal whose frequency has been converted to a one lower than that of the luminance signal are written superposed on each other in a magnetic recording medium and, in a playback mode operation, the signal read out of the recording medium is separated into a reproduced color signal and a reproduced luminance signal, then the two reproduced signals are subjected to predetermined signal processing by individual signal processing systems, and then the processed signals are mixed by a mixer to produce a reproduced color video signal. The mixer to which the reproduced luminance signal is applied is preceded by a comb filter which is operable using a chrominance subcarrier frequency of the reproduced chrominance signal as a reference.

A luminance signal/color signal separation circuit comprises a color signal separation circuit for obtaining a first color signal partially including luminance signal component from a composite image signal, a computation circuit for obtaining a second color signal including a color separation error signal by eliminating the luminance signal component from the first color signal to take out a signal of the second highest potential of the first and second color signals and a reference potential, thus to take out a third color signal excluding the color separation error signal, and a luminance signal separation circuit for obtaining a luminance signal from the composite signal and the third color signal. This circuit is constituted to first consider a signal which seems to be a C signal as a C signal once at least to effect computation between that signal and current line data, whereby when the result thereof indicates that considering that signal as C signal is correct, that signal is used as C signal, while when erroneous, that signal is not used as C signal. Thus, drawbacks, e.g., dot crawl of Y signal and/or half tone or color shift of C signal do not occur.

A noise reduction circuit for use in a video signal recording and/or reproducing apparatus for eliminating noise components from an input luminance signal comprises a high pass filter circuit for extracting a high frequency signal component from the input luminance signal, a first limiter circuit for limiting the high frequency signal component at a first limiting level, a multiplier circuit for determining the degree of preemphasis and/or deemphasis by multiplying a predetermined coefficient to the limited signal, summing and subtracting circuits respectively for adding and subtracting the output signal of the first amplifying means to and from the input luminance signal, and a feedback loop for feeding back the output signal of the high pass filter circuit to its input port. The feedback loop comprises a second multiplier circuit which modifies the amplitude of the signal passing therethrough by a second level which is set substantially higher than the first level of the first limiter circuit.

A helical scan type magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus comprises a rotary body which is wrapped with a magnetic tape on an outer peripheral surface thereof over a predetermined angular range and has a tape guide for guiding a part of the magnetic tape, and n pairs of rotary heads mounted on the rotary body. Each pair out of the n pairs of rotary heads is constituted by two rotary heads which are mounted at mutually opposite positions on a rotational plane of the rotary body at the same height position, and each pair out of the n pairs of rotary heads is mounted at different positions in an axial direction of the rotary body. The n pairs of rotary heads simultaneously record a luminance signal and two kinds of signals constituting a color video signal on n groups of tracks which are mutually separated in the tape width direction, so that the luminance signal is recorded on one group of tracks which is closest to the tape guide of the rotary body in order to minimize a jitter in the luminance signal which is reproduced.

Color signal with a narrow range can be outputted in place of the signal with the reduced level.
