Abstract: A recording system includes a shooting data acquisition unit, a passenger detection unit, a driver detection unit, a determination unit, and a recording control unit. The shooting data acquisition unit acquires shooting data from a camera for taking an image of inside/outside of a vehicle in which a driver and a passenger ride. The passenger detection unit detects at least the passenger. The driver detection unit detects the driver in a predetermined range. The determination unit determines whether the passenger inside the vehicle has gotten out thereof. The recording control unit instructs, after the driver detection unit no longer detects the driver detected until then, when the determination unit determines that the passenger has gotten out of the vehicle, a recording device to record the shooting data of the outside thereof.

Abstract: A video mixing apparatus mixes a graphics video image and a playback video image at a plurality of mixture ratios in one image plane. Fade data indicative of the mixing ratio of at least one line of the playback video signal and the graphics video signal is sequentially generated in accordance with a predetermined order. The fade data is held into holding means and is outputted from the holding means synchronously with a horizontal sync signal. The levels of the playback video signal and the graphics video signal are individually adjusted in accordance with the fade data outputted from the holding means and the adjusted signals are added. The playback video signal and the graphics video signal are mixed at the mixing ratio set every line of one image plane.
