BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a series continuous recording method of an optical disk device, and more particularly, to a series continuous recording method of an optical disk device that enables continuous recording of the same series of broadcast programs on the same optical disk.

As is well known, optical discs, such as Digital Versatile Disc (DVD), can be used for playback only, Digital Versatile Disc-Read Only Memory (DVD-ROM), Digital Versatile Disc-Recordable (DVD-R), rewritable It has various kinds such as DVD-RW (Digital Versatile Disc-ReWritable).

The method for recording broadcast data received in an optical disc recording system in which such an optical disc is mounted to record data on the mounted optical disc includes tuning desired broadcast channels among a plurality of broadcast channels, and broadcasting signals of such broadcast channels. After demodulation, decoding is performed, and compression is performed by MPEG or the like and recorded on the mounted optical disc.

In recent years, such an optical disk apparatus has a separate storage medium such as a hard disk, and records and records desired titles of various data streams such as digital broadcast programs on an optical disk or a hard disk.

In this way, the user can record a broadcast program on the inserted optical disk, in which case the broadcast program to be recorded is a series, and for a broadcast program of the same series (for example, MBC miniseries "XXXX"). When recording to one disc, the user correctly remembers the first recorded disc of the series broadcast program, and then selects the disc again and records the same on the optical disc when the next series of broadcast programs are recorded.

However, in the conventional method of recording a series in an optical disk device, as described above, in order to record a broadcast program of the same series on one disk, the user has to memorize the disk one by one and selects and records the disk. This is more troublesome when there are multiple series to record.

Therefore, if a user records a series program, if the user does not remember the disc correctly and selects the disc incorrectly, the program of the same series is recorded on different discs. There is an issue that is difficult to reconstruct as it is and subsequently.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve such a problem of the prior art, and a series of optical disc devices capable of continuously recording on the same optical disc set on the basis of series information and disc identification information for broadcast programs of the same series. To provide a recording method.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method of recording a series broadcast program in an optical disc apparatus, comprising: a first step of loading an optical disc for recording the series broadcast program; A second step of recording the inputted series broadcast program on the selected optical disc upon input; a third step of recording the identification information and the series information of the optical disc in a predetermined area of the selected optical disc; And a fourth step of continuously recording the re-inputted series broadcast program on the optical disc based on the identification information and the series information recorded on the optical disc upon re-input of the series broadcast program.

In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of recording a series broadcast program in an optical disc apparatus having a storage medium, comprising the steps of: a) loading an optical disc for recording the series broadcast program; and b) from outside. Recording the inputted series broadcast program on the selected optical disc upon inputting the series broadcast program; c) recording identification information of the optical disc and the series information in a predetermined region of the selected optical disc; d) continuously recording the re-inputted series broadcast program on the optical disc or temporarily recording the storage medium on the basis of the identification information and the series information recorded on the optical disc upon re-input of the series broadcast program from the outside; Steps.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram illustrating an optical disk apparatus to which the present invention is applied, and includes a loading unit 100 into which an optical disk is loaded, and a servo system 110 for rotationally driving an optical disk mounted on the loading unit 100. It is composed.

In addition, the optical disk apparatus includes an optical pickup unit 120 for reading out a signal recorded on an optical disk seated on the loading unit 100 or recording a data stream processed from an external input signal, and from the optical pickup unit 120. The VDR (Video Disc Recorder) system 130 which converts a read signal into a reproduced signal or converts an externally input data stream into a recordable data stream and the same on the same disc through the control of the VDR system 130 A microcomputer 140 continuously recording a series of broadcast programs, a memory 150 storing various control data necessary for controlling the operation of the optical disk device, and a storage medium 160 such as a hard disk.

When the user requests playback for the optical disk loaded in the loading unit 100 in the optical disk device configured as described above, the microcomputer 140 controls the operation of the subsystem 110 to request the user to play the optical disk. To rotate to the loadable position of the optical pickup (120).

Then, the microcomputer 140 operates the VDR system 130 to process the RF signal read by the optical pickup unit 120 as a reproduction signal to output to an external connection device such as a television or an audio device. The user can select and play the desired optical disc.

Meanwhile, a user may load an arbitrary optical disc into the loading unit 100 and continuously record broadcast programs of the same series on the loaded optical disc, which will be described in more detail below.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a process of recording a series broadcast program according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention on the same optical disc. Hereinafter, a method of recording a series broadcast program according to the present invention will be described with reference to the configuration of FIG. 1. It will be described in detail.

First, when a user loads an optical disc into the loading unit 100 and then selects a series broadcast program of his / her favorite series (scheduled recording) request (S200), the servo system 110 under the control of the microcomputer 140. Rotates the loaded optical disc, and the VDR system 130 receives an A / V signal for a series broadcast program input from the outside, converts the signal into a recordable data stream, and processes the signal. 120 records the A / V signal for the signal-processed broadcast program on the optical disk which is rotationally driven (S202).

On the other hand, when the series recording operation as described above is completed (S204), the microcomputer 140 determines the optical disk selected for recording the broadcast program of the same series as the series recording disk, and the optical disc identification information and the series in the predetermined area of the optical disk. Information is recorded (S206), an example of which is as follows.

In general, an optical disc includes a program area in which audio / video data is recorded and stored, and a lead-in area in which navigation data for playback control for audio / video data is recorded and stored. The microcomputer 140 records the optical disc identification information and the series information in the navigation data recorded and stored in the lead-in area. In this case, the optical disc identification information is used to identify not only the disc code but also the optical disc as a series recording disc. The information is recorded including the information, and the series information includes the genre of the series broadcast program (eg, documentary), the program name (eg, KBS animal kingdom), and the like.

Through this process, when a series broadcast program of a predetermined time (for example, once) is recorded on the optical disk, and the series recording operation is requested again by the user (S208), the microcomputer 140 loads ( It is determined whether the optical disk loaded in 100 is a series recording disk (S210), which can be determined by checking whether identification information exists in a lead-in area of the optical disk loaded in the loading unit 100. .

As a result of the determination in step S210, when the identification information exists, the microcomputer 140 compares the series information recorded in the lead-in area of the optical disk with the information of the broadcast program requested to be recorded (S212).

As a result of the comparison in step S212, when the information matches each other, that is, when two recordings are requested for the series broadcast program, the microcomputer 140 controls the operation of the VDR system 130 so that the second recording is performed twice following the previously recorded position. The broadcast program is recorded (S214, S216).

On the other hand, as a result of the determination in step S208, when there is no identification information, the microcomputer 140 controls the operation of the VDR system 130 to determine whether there is data stored in the optical disk by driving the optical pickup unit 120 ( S218), if there is no data stored in the optical disc as a result of the determination in step S218, the flow advances to step S202 to perform a subsequent step, otherwise outputs a predetermined message, for example, "insert another optical disc." (S220).

In addition, when the comparison result information of step S210 does not coincide with each other, the microcomputer 140 performs step S220.

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, for example, when the optical disc loaded in the loading unit 100 is a recording disc for another series, a predetermined message has been described as an example. However, in another embodiment, the data without the identification information exists. When the recorded optical disc is loaded or the information on the series of the optical disc does not match the information on the broadcast program requested to be recorded, the storage medium 160 is converted and signal-processed using the VDR system 130 using the VDR system 130. Can be recorded temporarily.

As such, the broadcast program temporarily recorded on the storage medium 160 may be copied to the corresponding series recording disk under the control of the microcomputer 140 through a copy command.

In this manner, when the all-record recording request series broadcast program is ten times, ten broadcast programs are continuously recorded on the same disk, so that the user can later sequentially play and watch the continuously recorded series broadcast programs from the beginning.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described specific preferred embodiments, and various modifications can be made by any person having ordinary skill in the art without departing from the gist of the present invention claimed in the claims. Of course, such changes will fall within the scope of the claims.

As described above, the present invention continuously records the same series of broadcast programs on the same optical disk by continuously recording the same series on the same optical disk based on the series information and the disc identification information. For this reason, the disc is memorized one by one, and the need to select and record the disc every time the series is recorded can be eliminated, and the sequential continuous playback of the series broadcast program can be easily performed.
