Description

  The present invention relates to a recording apparatus for recording program data including data of at least one of video, audio and text.

  Broadcasting services such as CS (Communication Satellite) digital broadcasting, BS (Broadcasting Satellite) digital broadcasting, and terrestrial digital broadcasting have been started. Users of these services use a recording device that records program data (data including at least one of video, audio, and text) included in a digital broadcast signal, to obtain desired data. A program can be recorded.

  The recording apparatus incorporates a plurality of recording media, for example, a hard disk drive (hereinafter abbreviated as “HDD”), and a removable recording medium (for example, a DVD (Digital Versatile Disk), hereinafter “removable”. Some recording media ") are available.

  The HDD can record a large amount of program data, but has a problem that it cannot be exchanged or carried in the case of a built-in type. Furthermore, in order to ensure storage capacity, there is a problem that program data stored in the HDD must be moved to a removable recording medium or deleted from the HDD.

  Patent Document 1 discloses a process of recording data recorded on an HDD by copying or moving to a DVD, and erasing original program data recorded on the HDD.

JP 2002-300517 A

  By the way, for example, when program data recorded in a second recording medium (for example, a built-in HDD) is copied or moved to a first recording medium (for example, a removable recording medium), the first recording medium is used as a recording device. It must be mounted (for example, inserted into a tray or connected to a connector). If the quality of the program increases (for example, if it is a high-definition broadcast program), the capacity of the program data becomes larger and the time required for copying or moving becomes longer. Furthermore, another function of the recording device may not be usable while program data is being copied or moved. For this reason, a user may copy or move program data during idle time (for example, when not watching a broadcast or sleeping).

  Under these circumstances, it is considered that it is easy to forget to remove the first recording medium while it is mounted.

  When the storage device is activated with the first recording medium mounted unnecessarily, the storage device reads information from the first recording medium that remains mounted at the time of activation. Therefore, the time required for activation becomes longer than when the first recording medium is not installed.

  Also, when the recording device is shared by multiple users, if the first recording medium is left unnecessarily loaded, the other person's first recording medium is left loaded. Every time it is used, the other person's first recording medium must be removed.

  On the other hand, as another problem, the program data recorded on the second recording medium can be copied in the second recording medium for the time being without considering whether to leave the program data on the second recording medium. Data may be recorded on the first recording medium. In this case, the copy source program data intended to be deleted after copying may be forgotten to be deleted from the second recording medium. As a result, program data that can be erased by the user remains in the second recording medium without being erased, and the remaining storage capacity of the second recording medium is reduced.

  As can be seen from the above, the conventional recording apparatus has a problem that the user is not easy to use.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to improve the convenience of the recording apparatus. Specifically, for example, the convenience of a recording apparatus that can copy or move program data from a second recording medium to a first recording medium is improved.

  A recording apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention includes a receiving unit that receives a first recording medium, and the first recording medium received by the receiving unit includes at least one data of video, audio, and characters. Recording means for recording the program data, time measuring means for measuring the elapsed time since the program data was recorded on the first recording medium, and the reception even if the measured elapsed time reaches a certain time. Detecting means for detecting whether or not the first recording medium remains received without being replaced, and when the first detection result indicating that the first recording medium remains received is obtained Notification means for notifying the user that one recording medium is still received.

  The recording apparatus according to the second aspect of the present invention is a second recording capable of storing program data including at least one data of video, audio, and characters, receiving means for receiving the first recording medium. Medium and the program data are stored in the second recording medium, and the program data stored in the second recording medium is copied to the first recording medium. A recording means for recording program data; a time measuring means for measuring an elapsed time since the program data was copied to the first recording medium; and a copy source even if the measured elapsed time reaches a predetermined time. Detecting means for detecting whether or not the program data is still stored in the second recording medium, and when a first detection result indicating that the program data is still stored is obtained Copy source program And a presentation means to be presented to the user of the data as a candidate for deletion.

  The first recording medium is, for example, a portable recording medium, and specifically, for example, a DVD (Digital Versatile Disk) or a removable hard disk drive (hereinafter, removable HDD). it can. Therefore, for example, the receiving means can be a device including a tray on which a disk medium such as a DVD can be mounted, or can be a connector to which a removable HDD can be attached.

  The second recording medium may be removable or non-removable.

  The “elapsed time since being recorded on the first recording medium” means an elapsed time from a predetermined timing when program data is recorded on the first recording medium. The predetermined timing can be, for example, a time when recording of program data is started, a time when recording is ended, or a predetermined time in between.

  Each of the recording devices described above can be a recorder that can be connected to a television device, but is not limited thereto, and may be another type of recording device, for example, a television device having a recording function. The program data is not limited to television broadcast program data, but may be other types of program data, for example, radio program data.

  Each unit described above can also be realized by hardware (for example, a circuit), a computer program, or a combination thereof (for example, one or a plurality of CPUs that read and execute a computer program). Each computer program can be read from a storage resource (for example, memory) provided in the computer machine. The storage resource can be installed via a first recording medium such as a CD-ROM or DVD, or can be downloaded via a communication network such as the Internet or a LAN.

  According to the recording apparatus according to the first and second aspects of the present invention, the convenience can be improved as compared with the related art.

  Hereinafter, a recording apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of a recording apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  The recording apparatus 1 includes an antenna 2 that receives a broadcast signal, a tuner / demodulation unit 3 that performs channel selection, signal demodulation, and video signal generation of the received broadcast signal, and digital data conversion and encoding of the demodulated video signal (for example, A reception processing unit 4 that performs data compression by MPEG2 encoding, and an output signal of the reception processing unit 4 is an MPEG2 program stream (hereinafter abbreviated as “PS”) or a transport stream (Transport Stream). And a recording / playback management unit 7 for converting the data structure into a data structure such as “TS”.

  The program data that can be recorded by each of these components is recorded in the storage means 13 or is recorded in a recording medium (not shown) via the recording medium management unit 14. The storage means 13 referred to in the present embodiment corresponds to the second recording medium referred to in the present invention, and specifically, for example, is a built-in HDD. On the other hand, the recording medium referred to in the present embodiment corresponds to the first recording medium referred to in the present invention, and specifically, for example, a DVD.

  Signal output from the recording device 1 is performed by the recording / reproduction management unit 7, the reproduction signal processing unit 5, and the output processing unit 6. That is, the recording / playback management unit 7 separates and extracts video and audio data from the PS or TS format signal recorded on the recording medium. The reproduction signal processing unit 5 performs decoding (that is, decoding processing) of the video signal and D / A (digital / analog) conversion of the decoded signal. The output processing unit 6 performs output processing of video / audio signals to a television monitor or the like.

  In addition, the recording apparatus 1 includes an input processing unit 8 for receiving input from a user, a time management unit 10 that performs time management of the recording apparatus 1, and a power source that controls supply and interruption of power to predetermined components. A management unit 11 and accumulated data management means 12 are provided.

  The control unit 9 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), and performs operations of the recording / reproduction management unit 7, the input processing unit 8, the time management unit 10, the power management unit 11, and the accumulated data management unit 12. Can be controlled.

  The user of the recording apparatus 1 performs various operations using, for example, an input device (for example, a remote controller) (not shown). The input processing unit 8 outputs a signal received from the input device to the control unit 9. The control unit 9 executes various controls based on the received signal. For example, the tuner / demodulator 3 is controlled so that the channel desired by the user is selected, or the video or audio represented by the program data is output while the program data of the channel is recorded in the storage means 13. Can do.

  The stored data management unit 12 can manage information such as program data stored in the storage unit 13 and can also manage information related to copying or moving program data from the storage unit 13 to the recording medium management unit 14. . The accumulated data management unit 12 can also manage whether or not a recording medium is mounted on the recording apparatus 1 via the recording medium management unit 14.

  FIG. 1 shows an example of the flow of processing performed when the storage device 1 is powered on.

  When the control unit 9 detects that the user has input (operated) the power ON key of the recording apparatus 1 (S101), the control unit 9 performs the activation process of the recording apparatus 1 (S102).

  When the activation process ends, the control unit 9 determines whether or not the copy flag is ON (valid) (S103). As shown in S207 of FIG. 2, the copy flag is information that is set to ON (valid) when program data is copied from the storage unit 13 to the recording medium. To be recorded. Such processing is performed when the copy flag is ON (valid), and such processing is not performed when the copy flag is OFF (invalid) in S103.

  When the copy flag is ON (valid) in S103 (S103: Yes), the control unit 9 determines whether a recording medium is loaded in the recording apparatus 1 (S104). When the recording medium is loaded (S104: Yes), it is determined whether the timer is already operating (S105). The timer is a means for measuring the elapsed time (t1) after the program data is copied or moved to the recording medium, and can be provided in the control unit 9 or the accumulated data management means 12, for example. Until the measured elapsed time (t1) elapses for a predetermined time (T0), a predetermined type of operation on the recording medium, for example, removal of the recording medium or reproduction of program data in the recording medium is performed. When it is performed, the elapsed time (t1) counted by the timer is cleared (eg, 0).

  When the timer has not been activated in S105 (S105: No), the controller 9 sets the timer (that is, activates the timer) (S106).

  When the timer has already been operated in S105, the control unit 9 performs a determination process of the elapsed time (t1) counted by the timer (S107). The process performed in S107 is a process for determining whether or not the elapsed time (t1) timed by the timer has reached a specific time (T0). The value of the specific time (T0) may be a fixed value set in advance, or a value that can be manually changed by the user.

  When the elapsed time (t1) has not reached the specific time (T0) (S107: No), the control unit 9 returns to S103, determines whether the copy flag is released, and then proceeds to S107. The monitoring of the elapsed time (t1) is continued. When the elapsed time (t1) reaches the specific time (T0) (S107: Yes), the process proceeds from S107 to S108, and the recordable size of the recording medium (using the accumulated data management unit 12 and the recording medium management unit 14) ( R1) is acquired.

  The controller 9 determines the recordable size (R1) (that is, the remaining recordable recording capacity) of the recording medium acquired in S108 (S109). When the recordable size (R1) is less than the specified value (R0) (S109: Yes), information notification such as message display is performed to the user (S111). By S108 and S109, the timing of notification to the user becomes more appropriate. That is, if the recordable size (R1) is equal to or greater than the specified value (R0), it is possible to record another program, and therefore it is highly possible that the recording medium is not forgotten. If the recordable size (R1) is less than the specified value (R0), there is a low possibility that another program will be recorded, and therefore there is a high possibility that the user has forgotten to remove the recording medium. In consideration of such a situation, the timing of notification to the user can be made more appropriate by S108 and S109.

  Here, a display example of the message in step S111 in FIG. 1 is shown in FIG.

  The message screen 600 is displayed on a display screen of a display device to which the recording device 1 is connected, for example. As an example, the message screen 600 displays a message “A program-recorded recording medium remains in the main body”. Further, in the configuration example of the message screen 600, “program name and recording date and time” 601 existing in the storage medium is displayed. Here, the program name can be acquired from the management information in step S204 in FIG. 2, and the recording date and time can be the copy date and time acquired in step S208 in FIG. Further, by displaying selection buttons “view” 602, “medium ejection” 603, and “cancel” 604 for selecting an operation, the user can perform a desired process on the designated program. It becomes easy. Specifically, when “view” 602 is selected, the control unit 9 can reproduce the program data in the recording medium. When “medium ejection” 603 is selected, the control unit 9 can perform a recording medium ejection operation.

  The message screen 600 may be automatically deleted when no operation is performed by the user even after a certain period of time has elapsed after the message screen 600 is displayed. Further, the configuration of the message screen 600 is not limited to this.

  Now, after notifying the user in S111 of FIG. 1, the control unit 9 clears the elapsed time (t1) counted by the timer, and ends the process (S112).

  If the recordable size (R1) is greater than or equal to the specified value (R0) in S109, the control unit 9 does not notify the user and proceeds to S110 to set the copy flag to OFF (invalid). To finish the process.

  The above is the description of the processing flow shown in FIG. Note that the order and configuration of the processing shown in FIG. 1 are not limited to this. For example, after clearing the elapsed time (t1) in S112, the copy flag in S110 may be set to OFF (invalid). Absent. In this case, S111 is performed only once and not thereafter. Further, the notification to the user in S111 is not limited to the message display on the television monitor, and various notification methods such as notification by warning sound, blinking of LED, and e-mail transmission to the mobile phone can be taken. Further, S111 may be performed after Yes in S107. In the case of No in S107, END may be set instead of returning to S103.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a processing flow for setting a copy flag.

  For example, when the user performs an operation of a remote control key or the like (S201: Yes), the control unit 9 determines whether the user's operation is related to a recording medium (for example, reproduction or ejection) (S202). . When the operation is related to the recording medium (S202: Yes), the recording medium is processed (S300). The processing of the recording medium is shown in FIG.

  When the user's operation is related to the recording device 1 other than the recording medium (S202: No), the control unit 9 determines whether or not the user has requested copying of the program data to the recording medium ( S203).

  When the copy of the program data to the recording medium is requested (S203: Yes), the control unit 9 manages that the copy source, that is, the program data in the storage means 13 has been copied to the recording medium. Processing for adding information (denoted as “IDx” in the figure) is performed (S204).

  When the program data is copied from the storage means 13 to the recording medium (S205) and the end of the copy is identified (S206: Yes), the control unit 9 sets (ON) the copy flag (S207). Further, the date and time of copying is recorded (S208). The date and time can be embedded in the management information.

  The control unit 9 determines whether or not to turn off the power of the recording apparatus 1 after the program data has been copied (S209). For example, if copying is performed while converting the recording bit rate of program data from the copy source to the copy destination, the time required for copying often increases, and therefore the apparatus is turned off after the copy is completed (OFF) May be set. If it is set to turn off the power (S209: Yes), a process of turning off the power of the recording apparatus 1 is performed (S210).

  On the other hand, when a request other than the copy of the program data is made from the user (S203: No), the control unit 9 advances the determination process for the request from the user (S211). In S211, it is determined whether or not the user's request is related to reproduction of program data existing in the storage means 13.

  When the reproduction of the program data is requested (S211: Yes), the control unit 9 copies whether the requested program data has management information, that is, the storage means 13 copies the recording medium. A determination process is performed to determine whether the program data has been received (S212). Here, “reproduction” is not limited to reproduction at 1 × speed, but may be reproduction of other types, for example, reproduction at a speed larger or smaller than 1 × speed (that is, fast-forward or slow reproduction), or negative (For example, rewinding).

  When the program data requested to be played back by the user is program data having management information (S212: Yes), the control unit 9 deletes the management information from the program data (S213), and then receives the request. The program data is reproduced (S214).

  If the user's request is other than program data reproduction (S211: No), the control unit 9 executes processing according to the user's request (S215). Here, each process is omitted.

  Here, the processing from S212 to S213 indicates that there is a high possibility that the user needs the program data of the management information existing in the storage means 13. The management information is provided as information for confirming to the user whether or not to delete the program data when the copy source program data remains in the storage means 13 without being operated. It is. For this reason, when reproduction of program data to which management information is added is designated in S212, it is determined that the necessity of the program data is high, and the management information is deleted in S213. By deleting the management information, it is no longer possible to confirm the deletion of the program data to the user (that is, it will no longer be a deletion candidate).

  FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a process flow for canceling the copy flag. Steps in which substantially the same processing as that in FIG. 1 is performed are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted unless particularly necessary (this is the same for the subsequent FIG. 4).

  The control unit 9 determines whether or not a recording medium is mounted on the recording apparatus 1 (S301). If no recording medium is loaded (S301: No), a message prompting the user to load the recording medium is displayed (S304), and the process ends.

  If a recording medium is mounted, the control unit 9 determines whether or not the recording medium is a recording medium copied with program data from the storage means 13 (S103).

  If the copy flag is ON (valid) (S103: Yes), the control unit 9 corresponds to the recording medium to which the program data is copied from the storage means 13, so if the timer is operating (S105: Yes). The elapsed time (t1) counted by the timer is cleared (S302), and the copy flag is set to OFF (invalid) (S110). Thereafter, processing for the recording medium designated by the user is executed (S303).

  According to the present embodiment, when program data is copied or moved from the storage means 13 to the recording medium, whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed from a predetermined timing (for example, start or end of copy of program data). Is monitored, and the program data in the recording medium (particularly, the program data that has been copied or moved) has not been played back, and only if a certain period of time has elapsed, the user is told that the recording medium is still installed. Be notified. That is, according to the present embodiment, if the recording medium has been installed for a certain period of time, it is not notified to the user uniformly, but the user forgets to remove the recording medium. The above notification is made when a detected situation is detected. Thereby, the usability for the user can be improved.

  According to the present embodiment, the copy flag is set to OFF (invalid) when a predetermined type of operation is performed on the recording medium. Thereby, when there is a high possibility that the user recognizes the existence of the recording medium, the above notification can be prevented.

  Now, another embodiment of the present invention can be considered as follows. In another embodiment, management information added to program data is used. Hereinafter, differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described, and description of common points will be omitted or simplified.

  FIG. 4 shows an example of the flow of processing for prompting the user to delete the program data serving as the copy source existing in the storage means 13 in another embodiment of the present invention.

  When the copy flag is ON (valid) after the activation process of the recording apparatus 1 (S102), the control unit 9 records that the program data has been copied from the storage means 13 to the recording medium. If so (S103: Yes), a determination process is performed to determine whether there is program data having management information in the storage means 13 (S401).

  When there is program data having management information in the storage unit 13 (S401: Yes), the control unit 9 acquires the remaining capacity (that is, the remaining storable capacity) of the storage unit 13 (S402). .

  The control unit 9 performs determination processing based on the remaining capacity of the storage unit 13 (S403). If the remaining capacity is equal to or greater than the predetermined value (S403: No), the process ends after the copy flag is released in S110. Note that the remaining capacity is determined by, for example, comparing a preset threshold value with the remaining capacity.

  When it is determined that the remaining capacity of the storage unit 13 is less than the predetermined value (that is, the remaining amount is small) (S403: Yes), the control unit 9 sets another timer (S405). S406 is a monitoring process of the elapsed time (t2) measured by another timer, and here, a comparison with a specific time (T1) is performed. The specific time (T1) is, for example, a set value held in the storage unit 13, and the value may be freely changed.

  When it is detected that the elapsed time (t2) has reached the specific time (T1) (S406: Yes), the control unit 9 notifies the user (S407). In this other embodiment, the notification in S407 is performed only when the remaining capacity of the storage means 13 is small. FIG. 7 shows an example of the display message 700 in the notification. In other words, the deletion candidate program data is notified in the notification in S407. The display message 700 is provided with a “delete” button 605, and when the button 605 is selected, the control unit 9 deletes the notified deletion candidate program data from the storage means (for example, HDD) 13. be able to.

  After notifying the user, the control unit 9 clears the elapsed time (t2) timed by another timer (S408), and ends the process via S110.

  Note that the order and configuration of the processing shown in FIG. 4 are not limited to this. For example, the timer (t2) in S408 may not be cleared and the copy flag OFF setting (invalidity) in step S110 may not be performed. Is possible. In this case, for example, by setting the specific time (T1) to the order of several months, the notification shown in S407 can be given to the user every several months. In the case of No in S406, END may be set without returning to S103.

  As described above, according to this other embodiment, when program data is copied from the storage means 13 to a recording medium, which of the plurality of program data in the storage means 13 is the program data copied to the recording medium. Alternatively, it is possible to determine which program data is simply forgotten to be deleted from the copy source program data, and to present the program data that is considered to be forgotten to be deleted to the user. The user can erase the program data from the storage means 13 by looking at the presented content and confirming that he / she has forgotten to erase it. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the useless data from remaining in the storage unit 13.

  As mentioned above, although several embodiment of this invention was described, these are the illustrations for description of this invention, Comprising: It is not the meaning which limits the scope of the present invention only to these embodiment. The present invention can be implemented in various other forms. For example, after the recording apparatus 1 is activated, the processing after S103 in FIG. 1 and the processing after S401 in FIG. 4 may be executed in parallel or sequentially.
