    Abstract: The invention provides a method for storing video signals at a first rate and reading the stored video signals at a second rate. According to an embodiment of the method, the video signals to be stored are compressed. The compressed video signals are stored in a memory at a first rate. The compressed video signals a read from the memory into a buffer at the first rate. The video signals stored in the buffer are read from the buffer at a second rate such that the video signals are decompressed.

    Abstract: A jitter correcting apparatus and method for a video signal in a video signal reproduction system includes a digital video decoder for demodulating an externally-applied video signal and a phase-locked loop for generating a first clock signal synchronized with the video signal. The system includes an address generator, a comparator and a dual port memory device. The address generator generates a write address for writing the video signal in response to the first clock signal, generates a read address for reading the video signal in response to a second clock signal having a fixed frequency, and corrects the write and read addresses in response to a head switching signal and first and second comparison signals. The comparator compares the write address with the read address and generates the first comparison signal and the second comparison signal according to a result of the comparison. The dual port memory device stores the video signal at a location corresponding to the write address in response to the first clock signal and outputs a video signal stored at a location corresponding to the read address in response to the second clock signal. Accordingly, the jitter of a video signal, which may occur while processing an analog video signal in a digital mode, is corrected using a memory device having a small capacity, thereby allowing a video image to be stably output.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for preventing unauthorized recording of video programs on tape, in which the frame repetition frequency of the signals to be transmitted is changed in such a manner that, on the one hand, the operation of a television apparatus used for reproducing said signals will not be disturbed, but that, on the other hand, the cooperation between the driving means for the tape and the recording head displacement in the tape recording apparatus will be disturbed. The apparatus comprises an input stage (4) for digitalizing the video signals, a shift memory (5), an output stage (8) for converting the video signals to be used into analog form, an input control stage (6) for the memory (5) and an output control stage (7) for the memory (5). The control frequency of the input control stage (6) is adapted to the frame repetition frequency of the digitalized video signals to be stored in the memory (5). The control frequency of the output control stage (7) is different from the control frequency of the input control stage (6), and the capacity of the memory (5) is sufficient to compensate the differences between the signal input and output.

    Abstract: A video recording/playback system includes in its recording electronics time-base correctors both for luma signal and for color-under signal, the time-base corrector for luma signal being used to facilitate comb filtering and the time-base corrector for chroma signal being used to maintain luma/chroma tracking during recording. The video recording/playback system includes in its playback electronics time-base correctors both for played-back luma signal and for played-back color-under signal, the time-base corrector for played-back luma signal being used to facilitate comb filtering and the time-base corrector for played-back chroma signal being used to maintain luma/chroma tracking during playback. With appropriate switching, the same pair of time-base correctors can be used in both the recording and the playback electronics of a video recording/playback system. A detector in the recording electronics determines when there is substantial time-base error in the video signal received for recording and conditions the comb filtering of the luma signal during recording to be carried out in just the spatial domain and not in the frame-to-frame time domain. The recording electronics includes circuitry for signaling the playback electronics, via a recorded signal, that the comb filtering of the luma signal during recording was carried out in just the spatial domain and not in the frame-to-frame time domain. The playback electronics responds to such signaling to adapt the comb filtering of the played-back luma signal to suit.

    Abstract: In a VTR for TCI signals, horizontal synchronizing signal with different time width is inserted for identifying the chrominance signal component multiplexed in each recording line at the time of recording. At the time of reproduction, this horizontal synchronizing signal is separated to generate a signal identifying the chrominance signal component in the corresponding recording line. The chrominance signal sequence in the reproduced TCI signal indicated by the identification signal and the proper sequence of the chrominance signal process are compared, where both sequences are made to coincide with each other when there is discrepancy between both sequences to prevent the generation of hue error on a monitor.

    Abstract: A video recorder for recording composite video signals includes an analog to digital converter for digitizing samples of the composite video signal being recorded. A sync separator separates horizontal synchronizing information from the composite video signal being recorded. Filtering separates the chrominance information portion of the composite video signal being recorded, and a down-converter mixes that separated chrominance information with a nervous carrier signal thereby to generate a color-under signal. A controlled oscillator generates a succession of pixel clock signals at a rate the frequency and phase of which are determined in accordance with an oscillator control signal, the rate being more than twice the frequency of the nervous carrier signal and setting the rate of the sampling by the analog to digital converter. A counter counts the number of pixel clock signals supplied by the controlled oscillator, and a frequency divider divides the count by a prescribed factor. A discriminator determines when the resulting submultiple of the count differs in frequency or phase from the horizontal synchronization separated from the composite video signal being recorded, to develop an error signal that is low-pass filtered to generate the oscillator control signal. This completes a phase-lock loop connection including the controlled oscillator, the counter, the frequency divider, the discriminator and the low-pass filter, which loop governs sampling during the analog to digital conversion of the composite video signal being recorded. The nervous carrier signal is derived from this same phase-lock loop.

    Abstract: A time base corrector of composite video signal using memory. In the back porch and front porch of a composite video signal, offset voltages having polarities opposite to each other and a level corresponding to the level of a phase error signal are added to the phase error signal and are used as an input signal of a VCO for generating a writing clock. As the result, jitter components which cannot be removed by the PLL only can be eliminated.

    Abstract: A recorded information reproducing apparatus, such as a video disk player, has a memory for storing video data of one field. The reproducing apparatus generates an address access detection signal when the absolute value of the difference between a generated write address and a generated read address of the memory decreases less than a predetermined value. The address access detection signal serves to change the phase difference between the synchronous signal in the read video signal and a standard synchronous signal which is synchronized with the read clock signal, thereby finely adjusting the time axis and changing the synchronization.

The system function modules obtain control data and communicate status data to a system control through a plurality of module function registers located in each module. The module function registers are connected to and selectable by a system bus of a microprocessor. The microprocessor has the module function registers mapped as addresses in its memory space to provide an architecture for communication and control of each function module by the system control.
