Fig. 1 constitutes digital program receiver of the present invention, for example the formation schematic diagram of set-top box.
Same as shown in Figure 1, its formation of digital program receiver of the present invention comprises as lower device: the tuner 10 of regulating the digital program channel; The DEMUX12 that the data flow of regulating the digital program program in the channel is separated by different attribute; The video buffer 14 of stored video data bag; The audio buffer 16 of stores audio data bag; The data buffer 18 of management information packet; The A/V decoder 20 of decoding output video packet and packets of audio data; Receive the key input apparatus 22 of user's keyboard or remote controller signal; The microcomputer 24 of program reception of distribution program and recording operation controlled function; The big capacity hard disk driver 26 of storage digital program program; The osd signal generating means 289 of generation and output character and picture signal, and the signal synthetic apparatus 30 of composite output picture signal.
Fig. 7 is the continuous recording control method flow chart according to the digital program receiver of the invention process example.
Below, to according to the in addition detailed explanation of the flow process of the invention process example shown in Figure 7 and the operation of Fig. 1 device and do.
At first, the order that the user records the specific program program of TV programme signal by described keyboard 22 inputs, step S10; At this moment, the SIN (Series Identification Number) of PIN of input program feature (program idetnfication number) or series performance feature, once recording by other video tape recorder differentiation still is that series is recorded, described microcomputer 24 is determined the recording mode of selection thus by the selection key of OSP signal generation apparatus 28 output " 1 time record " and " series is recorded ".The program of user's input or the identification number of series performance are stored in the described microcomputer 24.
On the other hand, in common program receiving mode, during program channel digital stream that reception is selected according to tuner 10, described DEMUX12 transmits flow analysis (parsing) with MPEG and is video and audio frequency and data transmission stream, and be packaged as the PES packet, be stored to corresponding buffers 14,16,18 afterwards.It is the PES packet that described DEMUX12 for example will have 00 TP and effective load data depacketize (depacketizing), and it is stored to data buffer 18.Described management information PES packet is generally PSIP (Program And System Information Packet), carries the program program information in data segment.
Shown in Figure 2 is the example of described program program information.Projection number of times and all projection number of times, program program capacity information and this play/are play the information of identification code once more now when including the situation of identifier PID (packetidentification), series matter/program identification number, series matter/program title, time started and finish-time, series matter of the transmits data packets of channel information, respective program program running in each the program program information that carries according to PSIP.Same as shown in Figure 2, the information stores of the program program of being obtained is carried out reference in the middle of described hard disk drive 26 in case of necessity.
Described program program capacity information is represented is size of data about the respective program program, described this play/plays once more that identification code shows is the program of this broadcast or the program of playing once more, and this information can effectively prevent to repeat to record in the recording state of this broadcast of series matter.
If the user sends the request of recording series matter, step S10, the series matter identification number (SID) of its requirement can be searched in Fig. 2 program program information in being stored in hard disk drive 26, step S11, if detect the identification number of the corresponding series matter that will record, step S12, the reproduction time (time started and concluding time) of the program program that affirmation detects.Under the necessary situation, illustrate, when the situation of power-down mode or user's powered-down, before described program start time, shutoff operation power supply, the appropriate time before the time started, self-opening power supply.
On the other hand, described microcomputer 24, showing number of times information now with the whole projection number of times that comprised in the detected program program information and respective program is basis, calculates whole recording times of respective series program or records capacity.Same as shown in Figure 3, whole spaces of recording of the corresponding series performance of distribution in the hard disk drive 26, step S13; For example, above detected program program series matter present projection number of times information and all the projection number of times be 12 times and 36 times, if program program capacity information is 700MB, roughly calculate (36-12+1) * 700=17.5GByte, in hard disk drive 26, distribute to the space of recording correspondingly.Even the space user of same allocated has other program program recording request also will not use therewith.That is, other program program of 1 recording request is carried out record in the rear end of described allocation space, and the space of distributing above only is used to recording continuously of the series matter selected.
If finish with the last identical allocation of space of recording, the projection time that described microcomputer 24 is comprised with the program program information that is stored in hard disk drive 26 and this program/play identifying information once more are basis, whether the corresponding channel of demodulation also confirms the respective series playing programs, step S15.Whether the transfer data packets that affirmation has the series performance program PID of selection detects step S16 in DEMUX.If this identifying information of playing/playing is shown as again to be play, and does not carry out the PID scan operation of top channel demodulation.Promptly do not carry out recording operation.Do not use this broadcast/play again identifying information, storage is about recording the present projection number of times of corresponding series performance program, and compares with " showing number of times now " of detected respective series program program afterwards, can determine whether to record.That is, if identical, so would not do not record because program recording is play once more.
The result who confirms above has the transmits data packets of corresponding PID if confirm to detect, and is same as shown in Figure 3, above recording in the space of being distributed of hard disk drive 26, record the series performance program of respective sequence, step S17; The performance recording of this moment is stored to hard disk drive 26 without demuxing or decoding with the transmits data packets form that receives, and is output as the A/V signal through DEMUX12 and decoder 20 conversions when regenerating afterwards.
After the program program that belongs to series performance is recorded, described microcomputer 24 is a basis with the present projection number of times and the whole projection number of times of present recorded program program, confirm whether the series performance program of recording in the hard disk drive 26 is last series order, step S18.
The result who confirms above, if the recorded program program is not last series order in the hard disk drive 26, step S15 from above carries out repeatedly to the process of step S17, the recording operation of series performance program carries out recording in the space of distribution automatically.
If the series performance program of recording in the rapid S18 of previous step is confirmed as last series order, the recording mode of respective series thing finishes, step S19.
If recording mode finishes, the memory space address of corresponding series performance exercise question and the series performance of recording number of times, initial record etc. all is stored in the described hard disk drive 26, when the user sends the program recording request, by osd information generating means 26 the recorded information picture is output as letter signal, show the information record series, the user selects the series performance that will regenerate by it.
The words that the user selects the series performance request to regenerate by keyboard 22, in described hard disk drive 26, from the series performance memory space address of initial record of storage before, read transmits data packets, and approval arranged in DEMUX sequentially, according to decoder 20 the PES packet of video and audio frequency is converted to the A/V signal and exports.Carry out the primary recycling request, the series performance that can regenerate in order and write down continuously according to this action.
Next, of the present invention other shown in Figure 8 implemented example flow process and the operation of Fig. 1 device in addition detailed explanation arranged side by side.
At first, the user carries out order by the recording operation of key board unit 22 input TV programme particular series program programs, step S20, the while is together imported the PIN (program idetufication number) or the specific SIN (serids identification number) of series performance of programs feature." 1 time record " still is " series is recorded " by deciding with examples of implementation are identical before mode.
Simultaneously, search the serial identification number (SID) of recording request in the program program information of Fig. 2 that described microcomputer 24 is stored in hard disk drive 26, step S21.If want the identification number of the corresponding series performance of recording to detect, step S22, whether the program program of confirming to detect in the respective program program information is for playing again, if not the words of playing once more, confirm the size of corresponding program, adapt in hard disk drive 26 to distribute with its size and record space, step S23.
In addition, in hard disk drive 26, generate the Display directory that the respective series program can be searched in record, step S24, same as shown in Figure 5 in Display directory, when each program program of series was recorded, the displayed entries of respective program can be searched in record.
If finish with the last identical allocation of space of recording, described microcomputer 24 is a basis with the projection time that the program program information that is stored in the hard disk drive 26 is comprised, demodulation tuner 10, whether the broadcast of affirmation series performance, step S25, whether affirmation detects the transmits data packets of the program program PID with selection, step S26 in DEMUX.
Top affirmation result, have corresponding PID transmits data packets if confirm to detect, described identical with Fig. 4, recording arbitrarily in the space that hard disk drive 26 distributes, can record the transmits data packets sequence number of the respective series program that begins to export from DEMUX20, step S27.
If record end, described microcomputer 24 generates displayed entries, displayed entries comprises the positional information, programm name of recording the zone about the series performance of recording before, shows number of times and size information etc. now, upgrade the Display directory that generates record before this, step S28 simultaneously.
On the other hand, described microcomputer 24 is a foundation with whole projection number of times and the present projection number of times that is recorded in the respective series program that detects in the program program information on the hard disk drive 26, whether the series performance program of recording before confirming is last series order, step S29.
If top affirmation, if judge it is not the order of last series, after the series of guaranteeing next order on the hard disk drive 26 is recorded the space, step S31, carry out process repeatedly, carry out the continuous recording operation of series performance program and the renewal of Display directory from step S25 to step S28.When guaranteeing to record the space, if do not receive a series of program program information down, the program capacity information of recorded program program guarantees to record the space before the reference before.
If the series performance program of recording among the rapid S29 of previous step is confirmed as last series order, the recording mode of respective series program promptly finishes, step S30.
If finish with last identical process, above carry out recording of series performance by the form identical in the hard disk drive 26 with Fig. 4, perhaps generate the Display directory that will the identical series performance of recording be fabricated to a regeneration unit with Fig. 5.
In this enforcement example, during series performance recording, because distribute the necessary space of recording, so between the reproduction time and next series performance reproduction time of series performance, the user can propose other program program recording request, in this case, can record other program program between series performance and the series performance, the series performance of recording request is with identical shown in Fig. 4 example, the record that can disperse.
Thus, described microcomputer 24 generates the Display directory identical with Fig. 5 for the whole programs of recording with the series performance of dispersed record show to the user with a regeneration unit.Each program program is carried out reference according to each displayed entries in the Display directory.
Display directory with last identical regenerative recording, show by message identification when the user asks catalogue by osd signal generating means 28, if the user selects Display directory to require regeneration, the program of respectively recording of carrying out reference according to the displayed entries in its Display directory has sequentially and begins to read from hard disk drive 26, is converted to A/V signal and output according to DEMUX12 and decoder.Have sequentially according to the program of recording of the series performance of primary recycling request dispersed record thus and regenerate.
On the other hand, with last identical, during the situation of regenerative recording Display directory, can utilize the selectable regenerative operation of Display directory for series performance.
Illustrate, same as shown in Figure 6 if there is " in detail " request that is similar to Display directory in described microcomputer 24 by the osd signal generating means, show information about each displayed entries in the Display directory.Make the user can select the clauses and subclauses 601 of regenerating, finish regenerative operation selectively for the displayed entries of selecting by keyboard.Microcomputer 24 skip (skip) do not select regeneration Display directory.
On the other hand, by above-mentioned description, the related work personnel can carry out various change and modification fully in the scope that does not depart from this invention technological thought.Therefore, the technical scope of this invention can not be confined to the detailed description on the detailed book; Must determine its technical scope according to the scope of patent application.
