  • Patent number: 7206496
    Abstract: A control system realizes a playback function by playing back stream data read out from a medium by using a decoder. When special playback functions corresponding to pause, fast forward, and rewind are to be performed, the control system moves a read start pointer to the head of a data block constructing a data format, and sets as a restart position of a playback operation.

  • Publication number: 20050219382
    Abstract: A digital camera device includes a digital compressed image data generating unit which generates digital compressed image data having a large number of a group of pictures (GPOs) having a plurality of picture frames based on a video signal generated by picking-up an image of a subject by an image pick-up, and which adds, to a header (SH) of the picture group, address information on a predetermined picture frame (P picture) in the picture groups of the digital compressed image data. The digital compressed image data is recorded to the recording medium. Thus, the picked-up and generated image data is fast transferred to an image recording and reproducing device without deterioration.

  • Publication number: 20040263635
    Abstract: An imaging element converts an optical image acquired by the optical system, into an electric signal. A camera-signal processing unit processes the electric signal. From the electric signal, an automatic iris-detecting unit generates iris information representing the brightness of the object. A hand-tremble-degree detecting unit determines whether the hand-tremble information represents a high-degree hand tremble or a low-degree hand tremble, from the iris information generated by the automatic iris-detecting unit and shutter-speed information that sets an exposure time for the imaging element. The detecting unit outputs hand-tremble-degree information that represents a high-degree hand tremble or a low-degree hand tremble. A display control means causes a display unit to display a first mark when the hand-tremble-degree information represents a low-degree hand tremble.

  • Patent number: 5298994
    Abstract: A converter for television signals formed of a television signal converter, a selection position changer and a position display. The television signal converter converts a first television signal corresponding to a selected portion of a picture of a first television system to a second television signal of a second television system so that the selected portion of the picture of the first television system fills the entire screen of the second television system. The aspect ratios of the first and second television system are different. The selection position changer changes the position of the selected portion of the picture of the first television system. The position display displays information about the position of the selected portion of the picture of the first television system.

  • Patent number: 5218429
    Abstract: A high-definition signal is band-compressed and is supplied to a simple MUSE processor. The simple MUSE processor generates a simple high-definition television signal. A scanning line processor converts said simple high-definition television signal into an interlaced scanning signal with less scanning lines than the television signal of the present system. The television signal output from the scanning line processor is converted into an analog signal. Two color difference signals, are input to a quadrature modulator which uses a sub-carrier that follows a clock synchronized with the sampling pulse of the high-definition television signal, and is obtained from a synch regenerator. The clock is then input to a phase-locked loop circuit which generates the color sub-carrier, which is phase-synchronized with the clock, and supplies the color sub-carrier to the quadrature modulator.

  • Patent number: 5128750
    Abstract: According to the present invention, in a simple MUSE processing circuit, a high-definition television signal, which is band-compressed by an offset subsampling circulating in a field, is converted into a simple high Definition television signal, which is not a complete high Definition television signal, by superposing fields which are fewer than fields n. In a scanning line processing device, the simple high Definition television signal is converted into a first sequential scanning signal with at least the same number of scanning lines as the television signal in the present system. The first sequential scanning signal obtained by the scanning line processing device can be used as a Extended Definition television signal as it is. Also, in an interlaced converter, the first sequential scanning signal obtained by said scanning line processing device is converted into a first interlaced scanning signal which can be used in the television receiver in the present system.

  • Patent number: 5065243
    Abstract: Current television signals are converted into sequential scanning signals in a sequential scanning conversion circuit and supplied to a memory circuit. In the memory circuit, the sequential scanning signals are converted into interlaced scanning signals, and then the signals are time-compressed and converted into small screen signals. High-definition television signals decoded by a MUSE decoder are supplied to a selector as master screen signals. In the selector, the master and slave screen signals are selectively produced to form a picture-in-picture signal.
