Patent number: 7447126Abstract: A recording device executes unattended recording after suspending dubbing when a preset recording time draws near during the dubbing, and saves dubbing-status information showing the suspension position of the dubbing. The recording device reads the dubbing status information after the end of the unattended recording, and resumes the dubbing from the suspension position. If suspension/resumption during the dubbing of a single source content results in a plurality of duplicate contents, the recording device edits the duplicate contents into a single content or a single playback route.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2004Date of Patent: November 4, 2008Assignee: Matsushita Electrical Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akihiro Watanabe, Shuji Okamoto, Masako Ninomiya, Youichi Yamamoto

Publication number: 20060291804Abstract: When receiving a record presetting from the record presetting unit 8, the detection unit 10 compares the received record presetting with a record presetting that has been received earlier, to detect, if time periods indicated by the record presettings overlap, an overlapping time portion and one or more non-overlapping time portion. The detection unit 10 then newly generates record presettings in one-to-one correspondence with the overlapping and non-overlapping time portions. The recording unit 11 performs a recording operation with reference to the record presettings newly generated by the detection unit 10. Thus, the recording unit 11 can perform a recording operation as described by the original record presettings, which indicate the time periods that overlap. The generation unit 12 generates, on a storage medium, Cell information for each of the original record presettings, and appends user information to the Cell information.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2004Publication date: December 28, 2006Inventors: Ryuichi Hori, Youichi Yamamoto, Shuji Okamoto, Yasuyuki Matuura, Masahiro Kawasaki, Akihiro Watanabe

Publication number: 20060156355Abstract: A reproduction apparatus that, when a same content is recorded in the HDD 1 and the SD card 102, allows the user to reproduce the content in one of the recording mediums to a certain viewing position and resume the reproduction of the content in the other recording medium from the certain viewing position (resume position), without causing the user to view a portion of the content redundantly. When the SD card 102 is inserted into the reproduction apparatus, the resume information of the HDD 1 and the SD card 102 is updated to synchronize the viewing position of the HDD 1 with the viewing position of the SD card 102, allowing the user to resume reproduction from the viewing position indicated by the updated resume information and saving the user from viewing a portion redundantly.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2004Publication date: July 13, 2006Inventors: Masahiro Kawasaki, Akihiro Watanabe, Shuji Okamoto, Yuji Iwahara, Tohru Suetomo, Yasuyuki Matuura

Publication number: 20050246641Abstract: Provided is a recording apparatus that prompts a user to judge whether non-referenced part in a DVD should be deleted or not, thereby facilitating cleanup of recorded contents in the DVD. A playlist editing unit (15) obtains a PL by performing a playlist editing, where the playlist is a logical playback path defined on a VOB recorded in the DVD and contains at least one playback section defined by the user. After the playlist editing is performed, a non-referenced part extraction unit (17) displays to the user a plurality of remaining parts resulting after subtracting from the entire VOB the playback section specified by PL information, as a plurality of non-referenced parts in a moving image stream. A substantial editing unit (18) deletes any of the displayed non-referenced parts, according to a user operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2003Publication date: November 3, 2005Inventors: Ryuichi Hori, Shuji Okamoto

Patent number: 6879408Abstract: A printer and a printer driver automatically execute setting processing relevant to information unique to each printer without a user's intervention. Printer language specifications indicating a correspondence between plot objects and printer languages are stored. Printer language specifications setting data predetermined for the printer language specifications are generated. Control language specifications indicating a correspondence between control elements and control languages are stored. Control language specifications setting data predetermined for the control language specifications are generated. According to a trigger instructing a host PC to start transmission, the generated language specifications setting data to a bi-directional communication part are transmitted. The bi-directional communication part transmits the received language specifications setting data through a transmission path to the host PC.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2000Date of Patent: April 12, 2005Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ryuichi Hori, Masahiro Horie, Shuji Okamoto
