Abstract: An optical disk memory content display device, system and display control method are disclosed which are capable of more quickly retrieving an index of a data for a CD-RAM. An integrated circuit memory device (Memory In Disk: MID) is integrated with an optical disk to store the index of the data on the optical disk. A reader device is, e.g., integrated into a remote control device for the optical disk read/write device, reads the index stored in the IC memory device integrated with the optical disk.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an video displaying apparatus for an internet set top box, which has a video memory for storing pixel data corresponding to a scanning line of a TV signal, and a method for scrolling screen fast. The video displaying apparatus comprises a memory; a data processor for converting a received video signal into pixel data and storing the pixel data in the memory; four FIFO memories for temporarily storing pixel data of a scanning line of a TV signal from the memory; a MUX for sequentially selecting the FIFO memories one by one and outputting the pixel data from the selected FIFO memory; an RGB converter for converting the pixel data through the MUX into RGB signals, a Y/C converter for converting the RGB signals into composite analog signal consisting of luminance and chrominance signals; and a controller for controlling the data movement from the memory to the FIFO memories and output selection of the MUX.

Abstract: A picture signal record/playback apparatus and method thereof for a time lapse VCR which makes it possible to operate with enhanced stability and greater accuracy in providing picture signals. The apparatus includes a memory unit for storing therein by a per frame unit a plurality of frame picture signals respectively having an inter-frame input time interval, a memory control unit for consecutively reading the picture signals for the plurality of frames from the memory unit so as not to have a time interval therebetween, and a recording unit for recording on a magnetic tape media the plurality of frame picture signals being consecutively read.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying program guide data for individual videotape cassettes without a videotape recorder. The apparatus and method includes a remote controller, which can function as a conventional controller, but also can interface without a memory in a tape cassette for displaying stored program data.

Abstract: A memory chip mounted on an optical disk provided with a data recording region, a TOC (Table Of Content) recording region, a clamp region, and a center hole, includes an MID (Memory In Disk) chip on a portion of the optical disk for recording index data, and a plurality of input/output terminals which are in contact with the MID chip. The optical disk enables index data to be quickly and conveniently recorded and searched for in accordance with physical contact between input/output terminals provided in a recording/reading apparatus and the input/output terminals provided in the optical disk.

Abstract: An audio and video recording and reproduction apparatus and method is described, which uses a movable storage memory such as a memory card, so that audio and video signals are easily accessed without separate editing devices. The apparatus uses a separable memory so that a deck is unnecessary, allowing small, lightweight constructions, and a compression algorithm results in longer playing time, while read/write operations robust to noise are achieved. Also, data desired by the user is easily accessible, and applications as a substitute for magnetic or disk media are also possible.

Abstract: A measuring apparatus and method of a permittivity of a dielectric material employs a cavity and a variable reactance connected to the outside the cavity to measure the permittivity of the dielectric material, in which a power-feeding post is installed within the cavity, the variable reactance for forcibly resonating the cavity is attached to the upper portion of the cavity at the end of the power-feeding post, a network analyzer is connected to the power-feeding post, and the dielectric material specimen to be measured fills up the cavity, so that the length of the variable reactance is adjusted to forcibly resonate the cavity and, at this time, the length of the variable reactance is measured to determine the permittivity of the dielectric material. Thus, unknown permittivity is simply measured while enabling the broadband measurement. A small cavity at a cut-off state is employed to be suitable for measuring the permittivity in a low frequency band.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for recording/playing back a broadcasting signal wherein the broadcasting signal is separated into a video signal and an audio signal and then written into video and audio signal memories. The video and audio signals are read from the video and audio signal memories if a HISTORY mode key is ON. The operation is ended if a REVIEW key is OFF under the condition that the HISTORY mode key is off. If the REVIEW key is ON the write operation of the video signal into the video signal memory is stopped and it is discriminated whether a JOG key is ON or OFF. A video signalportion of a predetermined previous interval is read from the video signal memory if it is discriminated that the JOG key is OFF. If the JOG key is ON, a read timing signal is generated to read the video signal from the video signal memory according to an operation of the JOG key.
