Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a time shifting recording method. [Previous technique: Time shifting] Time shifting is a common function of today's video recorders. The user can review the content of the program just missed by the time shift function of the video recorder. Since the time shifting technique only needs to store the picture for a limited period of time before, the usual buffer is to re-use the storage ring buffer. < ^ The traditional, translational technique uses the case of a ring buffer 1〇〇. § When the recorded time shifting function is missing, the video and audio are completely written in a buffer of the ring buffer 100: slow = _. The symbol 1 () 4 is marked as the buffer (4), and the head has information of the video signal, such as the time of the video signal, etc. After receiving the user's request to review the page's life, the playback $ will sort the header 1 () 4 to read the information of the video signal of the buffer 1 () 2 and then search for the information according to the information. Buffer ^ 102 to read and play the picture to be reviewed. However, when the time of the video signal that can be traced back in time shifting, the shortcomings of the above traditional time shifting technique emerge one by one. ς: For example, the ten-minute time shift specification is as follows. Suppose that the time length of the second video stored in the buffer 1〇2 is 30 minutes. 4 The user requests to review the three-point = 昼 face (marked at the sign 106 of Figure 1) ), the player must root: the information stored in the header 104, search for the buffer from the beginning

This search process wastes a lot of time on the twenty-seven minutes of video material before the mark 106. Therefore, the longer the time length of the video signal that can be traced back by the time shift, the more time consuming this backtracking process will be. In addition, another disadvantage of the above conventional time shifting technique is that it cannot be accurately traced back to the point in time to be traced back. Since the video signal is compressed and stored in the ring buffer 100, the size of the file is related to the complexity of the video signal. Therefore, it is difficult to estimate the correct time index of the video material stored in different positions of the buffer 102 from the size of the file. This problem becomes more apparent as the length of the video signal that can be traced back in time shifting is longer. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a novel time shifting video recording technique. This technology is not only fast and accurate in video playback. The buffer used in the time-shifting video recording method provided by the present invention is a ring type buffer. Before storing a video signal, the method first determines the length of time of the video signal. When the length of the video signal is not longer than a nominal time length, the present invention writes the video signal into a buffer of the ring buffer according to a writable index. When the length of the video signal is greater than the rated time length, the present invention cuts the video signal according to the rated time length, and sequentially writes the pieces of video and audio data obtained after cutting according to the writable index into the ring type. Multiple buffers in the buffer. The maximum length of the video data stored in each of the buffers is the nominal length of time; and each of the buffers has a header for recording the time index of the audio and video data stored in the buffer to which it belongs and the file size. In addition, the method further includes writing the video signal to the ring buffer

Due to the ring, the video signal can be reused for repeated use in the write cycle. The method further includes adjusting the memory space provided by the factory state to be reused, and adjusting the ring buffer provided by the ring buffer. The video signal has 2 indicators 'to ensure that the above and other = true readings are made for the present invention. It is easy to understand, the following is a better example, the convergence of the temple, and the advantages can be more clearly explained. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The buffer used in the present invention is a storage space that can be circulated and is in a state of being flushed. The conventional time shifting technique of the ring type buffer, the length of the bamboo shoots of the present invention can be traced back to the buffer length of the stored video data as shown in Fig. 1. ^ In an embodiment where the fast and accurate video is not invented, the suffocation... The length of each of the buffers of the audio and video data that can be stored in the rush zone. If the time of a video signal is not more than one rated degree, the present invention will follow the rated time for a long time according to the rated time. According to the -writable index, the image will be cut; In the plurality of buffers of the type buffer, the 1 shirt's material is sequentially written into the first-out algorithm to record the plurality of video and audio data. The second type buffer uses the first header to record the index and file size stored in the buffer to which it belongs.

In addition, since the length of video and audio data that can be stored in each buffer is limited, the accuracy of the search is relatively improved. ^ ^ Compared with the graphs 220 and 230, it can be found that the writable index W will change with the following: the type of the craving writer, so that the next-ply video signal can be successively written into the ring buffer. ^ The graphic 240 does not write a 4-minute long video signal to the storage state of the ring buffer and the port σ k Θ ring type buffer. Since the video signal does not exceed five minutes (rated time length), it can be written in a single buffer (buffer 214). The complexity of the 4 minute video signal is high, and the compressed file size is compressed. Very large, you must use the storage space of the buffer 2Q2. As shown in the figure 240, the buffer is called to cover the buffer 2〇2, which causes the signal originally stored in the buffer 202 to be invalid, so the readable index & must be done and modified locally. As shown in Figure 24G, the readable index R is R. The two targets are redirected to the next buffer, and the audio and video data stored in the ring buffer can be read correctly. In addition, as the 4 minute video is written to the ring buffer, the readable index w must also be appropriately f changed. As shown in graph 240, the index W can be read by W. The marked change is continued to be written to the ring buffer to ensure the lower-silver signal. Figure 3 is a flow diagram of an embodiment of the time shifting video recording method of the present invention. After the Shouguang optical panning function is activated, the step is “suddenly with So# and the ring buffer buffer and the video codec are initialized.

Thereafter, step 308 compresses the video signal to reduce the file size of the video signal. Step 310 determines whether the time length of the video signal is greater than a nominal time length. If the time length of the video signal is greater than the rated time length, step 312 is performed, the video signal is cut into several pieces of video data according to the rated time length, and the ring decoder is sequentially written according to a writable index. In multiple buffers. If the length of the video signal is not longer than the rated time length, step 314 is executed to write the video signal into a buffer in the ring decoder according to the writable index. In the above steps 312 and 314, after the audio and video data is written into the ring buffer, the writable index and a readable index must be appropriately adjusted to correctly mark the currently readable area of the ring buffer. Segments and places where data can be rewritten. Each of the buffers has a header for recording the time index of the audio and video data stored in the buffer to which it belongs and the file size, as a basis for searching for files when the video is backtracked. In addition, if the specification of the time shift is changed (e.g., the user desires to be able to trace back the video signal before the longer time), the present invention can be achieved with only minor modifications in step 302 (initializing the ring buffer). The present invention has been described above with reference to the preferred embodiments thereof, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and the invention may be modified and modified without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
