(9) RST (Running Status Table)

PID is 0013.To the effect that about carrying out the information of incident, before promptly incident begins, its term of execution and information after it finishes.

To illustrate below how the microcomputer 9 in this digital information processor handles above-mentioned PSI and SI.

At first, in digital signal processor, set constant and other parameter in conjunction with variety of network systems.This information is written in the network information table goes, network information table has been determined modulation scheme, frequency, bit rate and error correction method for transmitting stream thus.After setting, this storage in the EEPROM of microcomputer 9 (not shown).

Search events from EIT then.In EIT, distribute unique event id for each broadcast event, programm name is written into content and their time started, writes for each incident and transmits stream ID and service ID.Distinguish transmission stream ID according to EIT, utilize the transmission stream constant that comprises in the NIT that digital signal processor is set, just selected transmission stream thus corresponding to required channel.

The above is the processing that is performed when the transmission of required channel stream is selected in front end 1.The processing that microcomputer is performed below is described when the output of demultiplexer 2 is transmitted to MPEG video decoder 4 and mpeg audio decoder 5.

Fig. 3 represents to input to an example and the PAT in this transmissions is flowed and the content of PMT of the transmission stream of demultiplexer 2.Fig. 4 represents the internal structure of buffer storage 3.Fig. 5 represents the flow process of this processing.Following description is at program 1 selecteed situation.

At first, in the step S1 of Fig. 5, by demultiplexer 2 output of front end 1 is written in the buffer storage 3 and goes.In buffer storage 3, the memory block 3A-3C that has been each data definition as illustrated in fig. 4, data of different types is written into these districts.

Then, in step S2, from the auxiliary data of the ancillary data area 3C that is written into buffer storage 3, search for PAT.In order to carry out this processing, can search for PID and be 0 packet.Shown in Fig. 3 (2), the PID of the PMT of each program (at this, the PID of PMT1 is " cc ", and the PID of PMT2 is " dd ") is write among the PAT and goes.

Search for the packet of PID then for " cc ".So just detect PMT1 corresponding to program 1.Shown in Fig. 3 (3), the PID of the ECM of MPEG video data, mpeg audio data and program 1 is written into PMT1.

Therefore, in order to watch program 1, just from the MPEG video data district 3A of buffering memory 3, read PID and it is sent to MPEG video decoder 4, from the 3B of mpeg audio data field, read PID and it is sent to mpeg audio decoder 5 for the packet of " ab " and by demultiplexer 2 for the packet of " aa " and by demultiplexer 2.In this course, send not data as illustrated in fig. 2 with title.Also utilize the ECM information that is written in the packet that PID is " xx " to decipher scramble.

In order to watch program 2, PID is the packet of " dd " according to the same manner search.In this packet, the PID of video data, voice data and ECM is written into shown in Fig. 3 (4).From the MPEG video data district 3A of buffering memory 3, read PID and send MPEG video decoder 4 to, from the 3B of mpeg audio data field, read PID and send mpeg audio decoder 5 to for the packet of " bb " and with it for the packet of " ba " and with it.Also utilize the ECM information that is written in the packet that PID is " zz " to decipher scramble.

Above description is flowed common process performed when decoded at the transmission of importing when front end 1.The digital signal processor of Fig. 1 can also be by digital interface 11 being exported to such record/playback device such as DVCR by demultiplexer 2 isolated M PEG video datas, mpeg audio data and auxiliary data.In addition, this processor can also utilize digital interface 11 to receive MPEG video data, mpeg audio data and the auxiliary data of being exported by external record/reproducing device.This processing is described now.

At first, the processing that the output of demultiplexer 2 is sent to the microcomputer 9 of external equipment from digital interface 11 is described.Because the major part of this processing is identical with above-mentioned common process, so at this difference will only be described.

MPEG video data and mpeg audio data are transmitted to digital interface 11 with packet header.In other words, when microcomputer 9 was read from buffering memory 3, it read each title data, and by demultiplexer 2 it is sent to digital interface 11.

PSI and SI also are transmitted to digital interface 11 with title.But PAT only stays the PID by the PMT regulation with selected program code, deletion remainder.For example, when program 1 is selected, have only the PID (being " cc " under the situation of Fig. 3) of PMT1 to stay, remainder is deleted.

The data that send digital interface 11 to are transmitted to external equipment.This digital interface is for example based on IEEE-1394, and in this case, data were inserted into before it is output in the asynchronous data packets that meets IEEE-1394.The asynchronous data packets of digital interface 11 outputs is transmitted to outside DVCR etc.From this asynchronous data packets, extract data then, in register system, increase error correction coding, after data have been carried out chnnel coding just with its record.

Below describing resets in the manner described above is recorded in the data among the DVCR and it is inputed to the situation of digital signal processor.Outside DVCR inputs to replay data the asynchronous data packets that is output.This asynchronous data packets is transfused to digital interface 11, extracts original MPEG video data, mpeg audio data and auxiliary data, and by demultiplexer 2 these data is written to buffer storage.

The processing that is written into the MPEG video data of buffer storage 3 and mpeg audio data is identical with the processing of above-mentioned data from the transmission stream of front end 1 input.On the contrary, microcomputer 9 is handled the PSI and the SI of write buffering memory 3 as described below.

Do not make to change ground and use PAT and PMT.As mentioned above, when data when digital signal processor exports outside DVCR to, have only the PID that has stipulated corresponding to the PMT of the program code of selecting according to PAT to be left, remainder data is deleted, therefore, having only the PID of the PMT that has stipulated the current program code that is being transfused to be written among the PAT in the data of outside DVCR input goes.Therefore, by checking this PAT search PMT, MPEG video data and the mpeg audio data that just can read the current program that is being transfused to.MPEG video data that is read out and mpeg audio data send MPEG video decoder 4 and mpeg audio decoder 5 to by demultiplexer 2, are carried out processing according to the mode identical with the mode that the data of being imported by front end 1 are handled then.

As for EIT, only reality in being written into the program of PAT or current data are decoded, and remainder data is left in the basket.Term herein " reality " refers to the transmission stream in selected channel, and " current " refers to that selected program is being broadcasted this fact.

As for RST, have only the element relevant decoded with the program that is written into PAT, remainder is left in the basket.As for SDT, only the actual element in being written into the program of PAT is decoded, and remainder is left in the basket.

Need NIT that front end 1 is set, still, owing in demultiplexer 2, do not need it, so it is ignored.BAT also is left in the basket.

As for TDT, when input during from the replay signal of external record/reproducing device, the TDT in this replay signal of this equipment represents the time that videograph was performed at that time, be not the current time, so TDT also is left in the basket.When the input signal from external equipment was not replay signal, TDT just represented the current time, to its decoding.In other words, whether represent the current time according to TDT, processing is inequality.Therefore, if whether represent that the data of current time will be easily for input signal increase expression TDT from external equipment.So just avoided when resetting internal clocking, setting the wrong time.

The situation of a plurality of programs is imported in explanation now continuously from outside DVCR.Microcomputer 9 checks that PAT searches for PMT, and by checking that PMT reads out in MPEG video data and the voice data in the program of being imported by outside DVCR.But when this outside DVCR exported a plurality of programs continuously and program changed, microcomputer 9 just checks PAT so that search PMT, and the MPEG video data and the mpeg audio data that are converted program can not be read out.Also owing in MPEG video decoder 4 and mpeg audio decoder 5, use past data, so, otherwise just can not carry out correct decoding unless the program data that is retained in before the conversion in buffer storage 4a and the 5a is eliminated.

Similarly, as for SI, when utilizing different transmission stream translation programs, the SI in the buffer storage 3 also must be updated.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, when the program of DVCR playback changed, the Q-character that identifies this variation just was attached to the title of asynchronous data packets.Fig. 6 is the diagram of the form of expression asynchronous data packets.When 2 positions of tag field are 01 ₂The time, just insert the public asynchronous data packet header (being called the CIP title later on) that 2 quadwords save (quadlet) in the beginning of data field.The value of mark is decided to be 01 ₂, so that processing is from the real-time video and the audio signal data of digital-video equipment or digital audio-frequency apparatus.

Fig. 7 expressive notation=01 ₂The time the CIP title.Fig. 8 is illustrated in an example of specifying FMT (Format Type) in the CIP title.As shown in Figure 8, DVCR FMT=000000 ₂Stipulate that the mpeg signal transformat is with 100001 ₂Stipulate.According to this embodiment, discontinuous Q-character is assigned to the position b0 of FDF (according to relevant field).

When the transmission in the DVCR replay signal is flowed when discontinuous, be connection features position not one section preset time of " H (height) " level (for example 1 second) just.Specifically, when video data was recorded in DVCR, the starting position (REC START) of expression record and the video auxiliary data (VAUX data) of end position (REC END) were recorded with this video data.Therefore, in case detect this auxiliary data, just discontinuous Q-character is set to " H (height) " level at playback duration.

According to this embodiment, in case the DVCR pattern is changed into playback (PB) from stopping (STOP), above-mentioned discontinuous Q-character just is changed to " H (height) " level.Therefore, even reset a program from the centre, also can remove the data in buffer storage 4a, the 5a and upgrade SI in the buffer storage 3.

In addition, according to this embodiment, the variable-speed replay Q-character is attached to the position b1 of FDF.When the DVCR operator scheme is at a slow speed or during prompting/checking mode, just be this feature locations " H (height) " level.During this variable-speed replay, having only the MPEGI image is valid data, so buffer storage 4 underflows, before next I image was decoded, the output of MPEG video decoder 4 ended.Therefore in a single day, digital signal processor has such structure, has promptly damaged this Q-character, just from the last decoded I image of MPEG video decoder 4 outputs, till next I image is output.

Fig. 9 is the flow chart of the expression processing that microcomputer 9 is carried out when the outside is imported.

At first, microcomputer 9 has judged whether outside input (step S11).Make the judgement whether outside input is arranged according to the output of front panel 10.

Then, judge whether to detect discontinuous Q-character (step S12).Whether this judgement detects discontinuous Q-character shown in Figure 7 based on digital interface 11.In case detect not connection features position, just upgrade PAT, PMT and SI in the buffer storage 3, and send the order (step S13) of removing the data in buffer storage 4a, the 5a to MPEG video decoder 4 and mpeg audio decoder 5.

Then, judge whether to detect variable-speed replay Q-character (step S14).Similar with the judgement of step S12, whether this judgement detects variable-speed replay Q-character shown in Figure 7 based on digital interface 11.In case detect the variable-speed replay Q-character, just order MPEG decoder 4 to continue the last decoded I image of output.

Fig. 6 is the diagram of the form of expression asynchronous data packets.When 2 positions of tag field are 01 ₂The time, the public asynchronous data packet header (being called the CIP title later on) of 2 quadword joints just is inserted into beginning place of data field.The value of mark is changed to 01 ₂, so that processing is from the real-time video and the audio signal data of digital-video equipment or digital audio-frequency apparatus.Fig. 7 expressive notation=01 ₂The time the CIP mark.Fig. 8 is illustrated in an example of specifying FMT (Format Type) in the CIP title.

According to this embodiment, FMT=100001 ₂And stipulated the form that mpeg signal transmits.Mpeg data is transfused to the data block after CIP title shown in Figure 6.
