The variable bit rate controller 24 controls the variable bit rate of the data corrected by the error corrector 23 to the descrambler 25, and the descrambler 25 transmits the data transmitted from the variable bit rate controller 24. The descrambler is transmitted to the data separator 26, and the data separator 26 separates the descrambled data from the descrambler 25 into video and audio data.

The system control unit 10 incorporating a OneChip microprocessor includes a digital signal processing unit 20 so that the digital signal processing unit 20 separates the video and audio data in real time and sends them to the video processing unit 30 and the audio processing unit 40, respectively. 20). In addition, the system controller 10 performs navigation control to interactively process the image software of the DVD 70. Since the function of the system control unit 10 is the same as that of the conventional DVD player as shown in FIG. 1, a detailed description thereof will be omitted here. Video data separated by the data separation unit 26 of the digital signal processing unit 20. The video processor 30 inputs the video data by using the video decoder 31, the sub picture unit 32, the OSD display unit 33, the video encoder 34, and the VDAC 35 to output the output terminal OUT1. The TV signal is output through. In addition, the audio processing unit 30 that inputs the audio data separated by the data separation unit 26 of the digital signal processing unit 20 includes a Dolby Surround unit 41, a linear PCM unit 42, an audio decoder 43, and an ADAC. Audio data is processed using 44 to output an audio signal through the output terminal OUT2.

On the other hand, the multimedia controller 80, over the air / cable TV information input through the input terminals IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4 according to the operation of the user's preference, the image information of the image camera, Controls the input of the Internet signal connected to the USB port, the voice information through the microphone, or the data of the DVD 70 detected by the pickup / servo mechanism unit 50 to the RF signal processor 21 of the digital signal processor 20. . The key input unit 90 has an interrupt key and a general function key to select multimedia functions to satisfy various needs of the user. When the user selects the Internet function, the video input, video chat, Home shopping, e-commerce, e-banking, auctions, real estate transactions, e-mail and various computer games can be used in real time according to the user's taste. Through the operation of the key input unit 90 according to the user's preference, airwave / cable TV information inputted to the input terminals IN1, IN2, IN3, and IN4, image information of the image camera, and Internet information connected to the USB port. When the voice information through the microphone is controlled and processed by the multimedia controller 80, the user can select and watch channels such as education, documentary, medicine, various sports, e-commerce, movies, music, and news, and select music learning. Songs, pop songs, healthy songs, nursery rhymes. You can search for songs, hymns, operas, and classical music that you can listen to along with the wallpaper or sing along. In addition, when a user selects to watch a movie, a number of movies recorded on the DVD 70 can be viewed in a high quality, high resolution, and 5.1-channel method.

At this time, when the user selects the multimedia information and wants to record the necessary contents during use, the DVD-RW unit 100 can be used, and when the user wants to search the recorded contents again, the pickup / servo mechanism unit 50 can be checked. have. The DVD-RW unit 100 is a peripheral device which is very useful for permanently storing data for backup or important educational materials on the DVD 70.

The multimedia controller 80 is output from the descrambler 25 to mix the pre-separation signal and the post-separation signal that do not pass through the data separation unit 26 to interface with the MIDI / MP3 sound source unit 110. The MIDI / MP3 sound source unit 110 converts the data interfaced from the multimedia control unit 80 and the voice data input through the input terminal into a synthesizer to have reverberation and chorus effect sounds, and thereby the audio processing unit 40. Outputs to output terminal (OUT2) via).

The video PIP controller 120 controls the video information of the multimedia information to be displayed for each section on the output screen according to the control signal of the multimedia controller 80, and the audio controller 130 controls the multimedia according to the control signal of the multimedia controller 80.
