Abstract: An error recovery method for video recording is provided. The method is suitable for recovering data of a disk when an error occurs during video recording. The method includes following steps. First, a last writable address of the disk is obtained. Then, a file system last written onto the disk is located by searching forward from the last writable address. Next, a new file system is generated based on the file system and a data segment of the defected recording. Finally, the new file system is written onto the disk so as to recover the data on the disk. Therefore, the data currently written onto the disk and the existing data in the disk can be recovered.

Abstract: An error recovery method for recording an audio-video interleaved (AVI) file is provided. The AVI file includes a header chunk and a content chunk. First, the predetermined values of a plurality of recording information are respectively written into a plurality of corresponding fields in the header chunk and the content chunk, wherein the recording information is related to a video/audio length of the AVI file. Next, a multiplexed media data is written into the content chunk for recording the AVI file. After the AVI file recording is finished, the corresponding fields in the header chunk and the content chunk are corrected according to the actual values of the recording information. Thereby, even if the recording process is abnormally terminated, the AVI file can still be normally accessed for it has a complete and legitimate structure.

Abstract: The present invention provides a microarray bioprobe device integrated with an amplifier having bottom-gate thin film transistors. The present invention utilizes a micro-electro-mechanical process as well as a semiconductor process to integrate microarray bioprobes and an amplifier having bottom-gate thin film transistors on a flexible substrate. As such, a signal obtained by the microarray bioprobes can be amplified nearby to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and impedance matching. The microarray bioprobes are formed on the flexible substrate such that the present microarray bioprobe device can be disposed to conform to the profile of a living body's portion so as to improve electrical contact between the bioprobes and the living body's portion.

Abstract: In a cyclic video recording method for an optical storage medium, the optical storage medium is divided into a set of forward seeking sub-zones and a set of backward seeking sub-zones. Initial values of a current sub-zone and a flag are set. The flag indicates a direction to seek the sub-zones and the initial value of the flag is determined by the initial value of the current sub-zone. When the flag indicates a forward direction, it determines whether the current sub-zone is the last sub-zone. When the current sub-zone is not the last sub-zone, a next sub-zone in the forward direction is set to become the current sub-zone and the write operation is performed. When the current sub-zone is the last sub-zone, the flag is set to a backward direction, the last sub-zone is set to become the current sub-zone and the write operation is performed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a microarray bioprobe device integrated with a semiconductor amplifier module, which integrates micro array biological probes and thin film transistors on a flexible substrate by Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) processes and semiconductor processes. A signal from the microarray bioprobe device is amplified through a near amplifier to increase signal-to-noise ratio and impendence matching. The micro array biological probes of the present invention are produced on the flexible substrate such that the micro array biological probes can be disposed to conform to the profile of a living body's portion and improving contact between the probes and living body's portion.

Abstract: A recording medium for storing video files and a method for editing video files are disclosed. In the method, when a video file is stored in a computer-accessible recording medium for storing video files of the present invention, the end positions of groups of pictures (GOPs) align with cluster boundaries of the computer-accessible recording medium. When editing the video file, implementation points are also at cluster boundaries of the recording medium. Therefore, the original video file is directly split by modifying the cluster-chain relationship and the file length of the corresponding file descriptor in the recording medium, without copying and moving actual data in the computer-accessible recording medium. Consequently, the efficiency of editing video files is enhanced.
