Abstract: The present invention relates to method and apparatus of recording/reproducing a non-MPEG formatted digital TV broadcast signal on/from a writable medium. The present recording method, when a digital TV broadcast signal composed of DirecTV transport packets is received, extracts data contained in DirecTV transport packets to form an A/V elementary stream, packetizes the A/V elementary stream into PES (Packetized Elementary Stream) packets, slices the PES packets into 184-byte stream pieces to produce a series of 188-byte Transport Packets defined in MPEG standard, and writes the series of Transport Packets sequentially on a recording medium. The present method can record a non-MPEG type of transport stream in MPEG recording format and reproduce the recorded transport stream to original DirecTV transport stream, whereby an applicability of a digital recorder is improved.

Abstract: The present invention relates to method and apparatus of recording/reproducing a non-MPEG formatted digital TV broadcast signal on/from a writable medium. The present recording method, when a digital TV broadcast signal composed of DirecTV transport packets is received, collects DirecTV transport packets as adding receiving time information to each packet optionally, slices the collected packets into 184-byte stream pieces, composes a Transport Packet defined in MPEG standard with each piece, and writes a series of Transport Packets on a recording medium. The present method can record a non-MPEG type of transport stream in MPEG recording format and reproduce the recorded transport stream to original DirecTV transport stream, whereby an applicability of a digital recorder is improved.
