Embodiment
Hereinafter, with reference to accompanying drawing, example of the present invention is described.
At first, video disc is illustrated.As everyone knows, the presumptive area at video disc writes down single image information or image/sound information.And these image/sound information are encoded according to the MPEG standard.The district of introducing is arranged in the inboard in image/sound information recording zone.Index information (TOC (Table Of Contents)) in subcode portion record presentation video/acoustic information content of introducing the district.Fig. 1 represents the example of this TOC form and TOC.In Fig. 1, TOC roughly comprises POINT, PMIN, PSEC and PFRAME.For example, shown in Fig. 1 (b), when POINT was A2, PMIN, PSEC and PFRAME were recorded in total playing time of image/sound information on the video disc etc. for expression.
Fig. 2 is the formation block diagram of the video disc reproducer of an example of the present invention.In Fig. 2, the video disc reproducer comprises: CD (CD) loading bin 21, CD signal processing circuit 22, VCD/MPEG signal processing circuit 23, CPU24, key input switch 25, dish ID (identifier) storer 26, password storer 27.
Key input switch 25 is user interfaces, and it comprises " PLAY " (broadcast), " STOP " (stopping), " RETURN " (returning) and ten keys such as numeral.
CD ID storer 26 and password storer 27 are made of nonvolatile memory.Thus, even the dump of video disc playback device, the information in these storeies 26 and 27 of being stored in can not disappear yet and still be kept.
In CD ID storer 26, storage is used to discern the dish identifying information of the video disc that will limit reproduction.In this example, can adopt the information of total playing time of setting among the TOC that is shown in Fig. 1 to coil identifying information as this.Usually, total each video disc difference of playing time is an eigenvalue.Thus, the information that adopts the total playing time of expression is during as the dish identifying information, and the video disc reproducer is easy to discern the video disc that will limit reproduction.
Password stored in the password storer 27.This password as described later, can be used for various purposes, but generally is used for discerning the user that audiovisual is recorded in the image/sound information that video disc write down of restriction reproduction.
Then, with reference to the process flow diagram of Fig. 3, the action of video disc reproducer is described.In case video disc is loaded into CD loading bin 21 (Fig. 3 step S31), CD signal processing circuit 22 is action under CPU24 control just.CD signal processing circuit 22 is read in the video disc of loading, is recorded in the TOC that introduces district subcode portion.The TOC that reads exports CPU24 to.If CPU24 reads in TOC from CD signal processing circuit 22, the information (with reference to Fig. 1) that then extracts the present total playing time of video disc that loads of expression from this TOC is as dish identifying information (step S32).The video disc reproducer becomes halted state for the time being after CPU24 reads in TOC, wait for user's operation.
The user when the image/sound information of the video disc of wanting to reappear current loading, " PLAY " key of pressing key input switch 25.In a single day CPU24 detects and pushes " PLAY " key (step S33), and whether the information of just judging the total playing time of expression that extracts from the video disc TOC of current loading is included in tabular form is stored in the dish identifying information in the CD ID storer 26 (step S34).
When CPU24 is not included in the dish identifying information table in the information of judging the total playing time of expression that extracts, think that this video disc should not limit attention, reappear order to CD signal processing circuit 22 and 23 outputs of VCD/MPEG signal processing circuit.Thus, the image/sound information of CD signal processing circuit 22 playback records in the video disc that loads etc. and export VCD/MPEG signal processing part 13 to.Behind the image/sound information decoding of VCD/MPEG signal processing circuit 23 with input, reappear and be image/sound (step S35).
On the other hand, when CPU24 in step S34, when the information of the total playing time of expression that judge to extract is included in the above-mentioned dish identifying information table, think that should limit this video disc reappears, do not send constantly at this and reappear order to VCD/MPEG signal processing circuit 23.Thus, this video disc reproducer forbids reappearing image/sound information in the video disc that is recorded in loading constantly at this.
As mentioned above, in video disc reproducer of the present invention, the video disc that the 26 storage restrictions of CD ID storer reappear.CPU24 judges whether the video disc that loads at present should limit reproduction.CD signal processing circuit 22 and VCD/MPEG signal processing circuit 23 only from CPU24 input reproduction order the time, are just paid attention to handling to the video disc that loads.The video disc that i.e. restriction reappears or not processing.Like this, video disc reproducer of the present invention can lock to the video disc that only comprises the image information unsuitable for children for the adult watches, and can limit this video disc and reappear.Thus, can provide and have the video disc reproducer that protectiveness adds lock function.
But general video disc reproducer is necessary to accomplish, specific user (as the adult etc.) can reappear processing to the video disc that restriction reappears.For this reason, CPU24 carries out there be not on the illustrated display " please enter password " such operations such as message of demonstration behind step S34, urges user enter password (step S36).The user is when wanting to reappear the video disc of restriction reproduction, and 10 numerical keys of operating key input switch 25 are entered password.
In case enter password (step S37) from key input switch 25, the password that CPU24 judges input whether be pre-stored in password storer 27 in password consistent (step S38).
Entering password when consistent with the password that prestores, CPU24 thinks that wanting the people of the video disc that the audiovisual restriction reappears is above-mentioned specific user.Then, CPU24 reappears the reproduction order of handling to CD signal processing circuit 22 and VCD/MPEG signal processing circuit 23 export permits.Thus, same with the explanation among the step S37, the image/sound information playback that writes down in the video disc of loading is image/sound (step S35).
On the other hand, when the password and the password that prestores of input were inconsistent, CPU24 thought that the people who wants audiovisual to limit the video disc of paying attention to is not above-mentioned specific user.Thereby the reproduction of the image/sound information that writes down in the video disc that the video disc reproducer is forbidden loading is at present handled.
But the user can forget password sometimes.For this reason, the video disc reproducer preferably can be carried out the removing processing of removing the password of depositing in the password storer 27.Again, specific sometimes user wants to change password.For this reason, the renewal that preferably can carry out the password of depositing in the new password storer 27 more of video disc reproducer is handled.Again, the video disc number that the user had can be because of buying or discarded the increase and decrease.The video disc that restriction reappears changes as time passes.Therefore, the video disc reproducer preferably can be carried out the processing of upgrading the identifying information of depositing in the CD ID storer 26.
Fig. 4 is that the process flow diagram that processing, password renewal processing and dish identifying information upgrade processing removed in the expression password.After a certain video disc was loaded by CD loading bin 21, the user carried out scheduled operation.In a single day CPU24 detects this user operation, with above-mentioned identical method, urge user enter password (step S41).At this moment the user imports password commonly used, removes the key of handling (for example, " RETURN " key of key input switch 25) by carrying out password.CPU24 then removes the password of being deposited in the password storer 27 (step S43) if detect by " RETURN " key (step S42).
Again, import correct password (step S44), then on not shown display, show predetermined menus picture (step S45) if CPU24 behind step S41, detects the user.
In this example, when this menu screen showed, if " 1 " (the step S46) in the contained 10 numeric keys of button input switch 25, then CPU24 urged the user to import new password, thereby the content of new password storer 27 (step S47) more is with the new password of login input.
Do not limit reproduction at the video disc that loads at present, and when pressing " 2 " in the 10 numeric keys during menu screen shows (step S48), CPU24 writes the expression information (step S49) of the total playing time of video disc of loading at present again to CD ID storer 26, thus, this video disc reproducer thinks that the video disc of present loading is the CD that restriction reappears from now on.
Moreover, reappear in the video disc restriction of loading at present, but when during menu screen shows, pressing " 3 " in the 10 numeric keys (step S410), the CPU24 deletion is information (step S411) storage, that represent the total playing time of this video disc in CD ID storer 26 in the past, thus, this video disc reproducer thinks that the video disc of present loading is the CD that does not limit reproduction from now on.
In this example, though with the information of representing total playing time as disc identification information, be not limited thereto, for example, the total road number that is comprised among the also available TOC and the playing time in the 1st road etc.
Again, the flow process of the renewal processing of the renewal of the removing processing of above-mentioned password, password processing and dish identifying information only is an illustration.As long as these treatment schemees satisfy its original purpose, be not limited to be shown in the flow process of Fig. 4.
