  • Publication number: 20020110367
    Abstract: In a recording device (1), a frame recording mode can be activated, in which the overall audio information of a television broadcast and selected frames of the television broadcast are recorded on a record carrier (11). A reproducing device (1) is adapted in a frame reproducing mode for reproducing the overall audio information and the selected frames of the recorded television broadcast. Consequently, a user can record, for example, the complete music of a concert and additionally record characteristic frames of the concert on a record carrier (11) and reproduce them at a later stage. This requires a very small memory location on the record carrier (11) for recording the concert.
