Patent number: 8260122Abstract: Executes a re-encoding after decoding data of a connection section A of a first MPEG picture data. This re-encoding is executed based on a control such that a transition of a VBV buffer occupation value starts from a VBV buffer occupation value at a position a and ends with a VBV buffer occupation value at a position d. Up to the position a of the first MPEG picture data, the first MPEG picture data is reproduced. Next, re-encoded MPEG picture data of the connection section A is reproduced. Thereafter, the data is connected to the position d of a second MPEG picture data, and the second MPEG picture data of the position d and after is reproduced.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2007Date of Patent: September 4, 2012Assignee: JVC Kenwood CorporationInventors: Takayuki Sugahara, Seiji Higurashi, Toshio Kuroiwa, Wataru Inoha, Kenjiro Ueda
