Description

  The present invention relates to a recording / reproducing apparatus and a recording / reproducing method capable of recording and reproducing video information, and more particularly, to a recording / reproducing apparatus and a recording / reproducing method having a time shift function capable of reproducing video information during a recording process. About.

  2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, digital recording / reproducing apparatuses such as a DVD (Digital Versatile Disk) recorder or a HDD (Hard Disk Drive) recorder have been widely used as apparatuses for recording and reproducing video and audio processed in a video apparatus such as a television. It has become widespread. One of the functions of these digital recording / reproducing apparatuses is a time shift function. The time shift function is a function that enables the currently recorded content to be played back in parallel while recording the content (video information).

  By using the time shift function, the user can start playback from a recorded scene of the content being recorded (for example, a game start scene in the case of soccer) and can also continuously perform the recording process. . Accordingly, for example, when a soccer game is being recorded, it is possible to view the game from the scene where the game starts at any time without waiting for the completion of the recording (for example, the end of the game).

  An example of a reproduction screen using the above time shift function will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 shows an example of an information display window that is displayed when playback by a time shift function of a conventional HDD recorder (hereinafter referred to as “time shift playback”) is performed. The information display window can operate the display screen by an OSD (on-screen display) function. The information display window shown in FIG. 6 is configured to include at least a status display icon 31, a recording end position 32, a recording current position 33, and a reproduction position 34.

  The status display icon 31 is an icon for indicating the current recording status (recording, paused, stopped, etc.). In this example, a circle indicates that recording is in progress. The recording end position 32 is a position indicating the end point where the reserved recording ends in the reserved recording process or the like. The recording end position 32 may be changeable during the recording process. The recording current position 33 is a position that relatively represents the current recording position of the HDD recorder using the recording start point and the recording end point 32. The reproduction position 34 is a position relatively representing the reproduction position reproduced using the time shift function using the recording start point, the recording end position 32, and the recording current position 33.

  When performing time-shifted reproduction using the information display window, the user inputs an instruction to move the reproduction position 34 using an input device such as a remote control device. Based on the input command, the playback position 34 moves within a certain range (between the recording start point and the current recording position 33), whereby the video information of the portion indicated by the playback position 34 is played back and displayed. As a result, the user can view the video information during the recording process even during the recording process.

  In relation to the time shift function as described above, Patent Document 1 discloses a video signal recording / reproducing apparatus in which a viewer can easily recognize a time difference from a current recording position to a reproduction position during time shift reproduction. The video signal recording / reproducing apparatus disclosed in Patent Document 1 indicates that a temporal display of a reproduction position is represented by a temporal difference between the current recording position and the reproduction position, and is displayed in a step-by-step manner as simple as possible. The recording time and the playback position are illustrated with the scheduled recording time as the whole frame. Thereby, the viewer can easily recognize the recording time and the reproduction time.

In relation to the above time shift function, Patent Document 2 discloses a recording / reproducing apparatus in which a reproduction part can catch up with a recording part by the end of recording. When the recording / reproducing apparatus of Patent Document 2 receives a time shift reproduction instruction during normal reproduction, the CPU detects the recording time of the current reproduction part, the current time, and the broadcast end time of the desired broadcast program. The CPU determines an optimum reproduction speed based on the detected recording time, current time, and broadcast end time, and performs time-shift reproduction at the optimum reproduction speed. As a result, the playback portion can catch up with the recording portion by the end of the broadcast.

  However, according to the conventional recording / reproducing apparatus, cutting of an unnecessary recorded scene or the like is performed while reproducing after the end of recording. For this reason, there is a problem that the time for replaying the video viewed by time shift playback is wasted and the convenience of the recording / playback apparatus is poor.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a recording / reproducing apparatus and a recording / reproducing method capable of improving convenience.

  In order to achieve the above object, the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention includes a recording unit that records video information including video and audio on a recording unit, and the recording unit that is recording the video information using the recording unit. A recording / reproducing apparatus including a parallel reproducing unit that reproduces video information in parallel, wherein the editing process accepts an editing operation on the video information being reproduced during the reproduction of the video information using the parallel reproducing unit. Unit, a storage unit for storing the instruction content by the editing unit in the storage device, and the instruction content stored in the storage device at the time when the recording unit and the parallel reproduction unit are completed in the video information It is characterized by having a reflection part that reflects the reflection.

  According to this, during execution of the time shift playback function (parallel playback means), an editing instruction for data being recorded is received from the user (editing unit). The received editing instruction is temporarily stored in the hard disk (storage device) (storage unit). When the recording process and the time shift reproduction process are completed, the editing instruction (for example, a scene deletion instruction) stored in the storage device is automatically reflected on the recorded data (reflection unit).

  In order to achieve the above object, the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention is characterized in that the editing section can set chapter delimiters for the video information.

  According to this, a chapter delimitation setting instruction for data being recorded is received during time shift reproduction. The accepted chapter break is temporarily stored in the hard disk. Then, when the recording process and the time shift reproduction process are completed, the reflected data is reflected on the recorded data.

  In order to achieve the above object, in the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention, the editing unit can set a deletion range for deleting a part or all of the video information, and the reflecting unit When the deletion range is reflected, the video information before and after the deletion range is connected.

  According to this, a scene deletion (manual deletion of video information manually) for data being recorded during time shift reproduction is accepted. The start point and end point of the accepted deletion range are temporarily stored in the hard disk. When the recording process and the time shift reproduction process are completed, the video data in the range indicated by the start point and the end point is deleted from the recorded data. Since the recorded data before and after the deletion are connected, they are processed as a single video data without being divided into a plurality of video data.

  According to the present invention, an edit instruction for data being recorded is input by a user during time shift reproduction. The input editing instruction is temporarily stored in a storage device such as a hard disk. Then, when the recording process and the time shift reproduction process are completed, the editing instruction stored in the storage device is automatically reflected on the recorded data. Therefore, the user does not have to wait until the recording is completed when editing the recorded data, and can effectively use the work time. In addition, since the editing process can be performed again and again before the recording is completed, the convenience for the user is improved.

  Further, according to the present invention, a chapter delimitation setting instruction for data being recorded is performed during time shift reproduction. The input chapter breaks are temporarily stored in a storage device such as a hard disk. Then, when the recording process and the time shift reproduction process are completed, the reflected data is reflected on the recorded data. For this reason, since the user can set chapters without waiting for the completion of the recording process, the working time can be effectively utilized. Moreover, since the chapter setting can be performed again and again as long as the recording is completed, the convenience for the user is improved.

  Further, according to the present invention, scene deletion is performed on data being recorded during time shift reproduction. The start point and end point of the deletion range input by the user are temporarily stored in a storage device such as a hard disk. When the recording process and the time shift reproduction process are completed, the video data in the range indicated by the start point and the end point is deleted from the recorded data. Since the recorded data before and after the deletion are connected, they are processed as a single video data without being divided into a plurality of video data. For this reason, the user can perform the scene deletion process without waiting for the completion of the recording process, so that the work time can be effectively utilized. Moreover, since the scene deletion can be performed again and again, the convenience for the user is improved.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In addition, embodiment shown here is an example and this invention is not limited to embodiment shown here.

[Embodiment 1]
<1-1. About internal structure of HDD recorder>
Here, the main configuration of the electric circuit system of the HDD recorder (recording / reproducing apparatus) 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG.

  As shown in the block diagram of FIG. 2, the HDD recorder 1 of the present invention includes at least a control unit 11, a memory 12, an HDD 13, a data input unit 14, an encoder unit 15, a decoder unit 16, a data output unit 17, a timer 18, The OSD generation unit 19, the operation button group 21, and the front panel 22 are included.

  The control unit 11 is a central processing unit for performing overall control of video information processing (content recording or playback, etc.) by organically controlling the drive of each member of the HDD recorder 1. The control unit 11 is a central part that controls each device (for example, the HDD 13), calculates data, processes, and the like.

  The memory 12 is a medium for temporarily storing various data held by the HDD recorder 1 and is configured by, for example, a writable RAM (Random Access Memory). The memory 12 serves as a buffer memory for temporarily storing, for example, processing data when various types of information processing are performed by the control unit 11 and instruction commands received from the user.

  The HDD 13 (recording device) is a magnetic storage medium for recording various data (video data, management data, etc.) held by the HDD recorder 1. The HDD 13 is physically divided into a plurality of areas (partitions), and it is more desirable to store the areas according to the type of data to be stored (video data, management data, etc.).

  The data input unit 14 is an input interface for inputting digital data (video information) from an external device such as a digital tuner. For example, when analog data is input, analog video data and audio data can be converted into digital data and input using an A / D converter (Analog Digital Converter).

  The encoder unit 15 is a processing circuit for compressing (encoding) video data using a moving image compression method such as MPEG2, and compressing audio data using a sound compression method such as Dolby AC-3 or LPCM. Note that the data to be compressed is, for example, video data and audio data input from the data input unit 14.

  The decoder unit 16 is a processing circuit for decompressing (decoding) the video data and audio data compressed by the encoder unit 15 and the like to generate a video signal or an audio signal. The generated various signals are output to an external device using, for example, a data output unit 17 described later.

  The data output unit 17 is an output interface for outputting video data and audio data to an external device such as a monitor. For example, when the output destination device has only an analog interface, digital video data and audio data can be converted into analog data and output using a D / A converter (Digital Analog Converter). .

  The timer 18 is a clock circuit for constantly counting the current time, and is used, for example, as a notification of the current time to the user, a trigger for starting the recording process in the recording reservation function, or the like.

  The OSD generation unit 19 is a circuit for creating an information display window based on the video signal generated by the decoder unit 16. The OSD generation unit 19 superimposes the information display window at a predetermined position in the screen displayed by the video signal in a format (alpha blending) through which the video is transparent. Alternatively, a video signal is created by replacing video information at a predetermined position with an information display window. The details of the information display window of the present invention will be described later.

  The operation button group 21 is an input interface for the user to make various instructions such as program recording and recording reservation to the HDD recorder 1. The front panel 22 is an output interface for displaying various information of the HDD recorder 1 to the user.

<1-2. Information display window>
Here, an information display window displayed by the OSD generation unit 19 in the HDD recorder 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to the screen diagram of FIG.

  FIG. 3 is an example of an information display window displayed when performing time shift reproduction using the OSD function provided in the HDD recorder 1 of the present invention. In addition, about the component of the same content as the conventional information display window shown in FIG. 6, description is abbreviate | omitted by adding the same code number. As shown in FIG. 3, the information display window of the HDD recorder 1 of the present invention includes at least a status display icon 31, a recording end position 32, a recording current position 33, a playback position 34, a chapter marker 35, a deletion start point 36a, A deletion end point 36 b and a deletion range 37 are included.

  The chapter marker 35 is a marker for setting a chapter break for the video information being recorded. A plurality of chapter markers 35 can be set at arbitrary positions between the recording start position of the video information and the recording current position 33.

  The deletion start point 36a is a marker for manually setting the start point of the scene to be deleted from the video information. The deletion end point 36b is a marker for manually setting the end point of the scene to be deleted from the video information. A range designated by using the deletion start point 36 a and the deletion end point 36 b becomes a deletion range 37. Therefore, the information display window generated by the OSD generation unit 19 constitutes an editing unit that allows the user to edit the chapter marker 35, the deletion start point 36a, and the deletion end point 36b.

  The scenes in the deletion range 37 are automatically deleted after the recording process is completed, and the preceding and succeeding scenes are connected. Thereby, video information is handled as one video information without tearing in the middle.

<1-3. Editing process during time shift>
Here, editing processing during time shift reproduction in the HDD recorder 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 1, the block diagram of FIG. 2, and the screen diagram of FIG.

  FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing a processing flow of editing processing during time shift according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, this process is started when the control unit 11 detects a recording start command for video information. The control unit 11 that has detected the recording start command executes a recording process (recording unit) of the video information input from the data input unit 14. Note that the recording start command is generated when the timer 18 detects that the user has performed a recording operation using the operation button group 21 or that the recording start time of a preset recording reservation has been reached, for example. ,publish.

  The control unit 11 that has detected the recording start command next checks whether or not the recording process has been completed (S110). When the recording process is completed (for example, when the recording stop time is reached in the reserved recording), this process ends. If the recording process has not been completed, the control unit 11 checks whether or not a time shift playback command is detected (S120). For example, when a time shift command is not detected, the time shift reproduction command continues to check S110 and S120 by shifting to the processing of S110.

  When the time shift reproduction command is detected in S120, the control unit 11 uses the data output unit 17 to convert the video information created by the decoder unit 16 and the information display window created by the OSD generation unit 19 into data. Output to an external display device (such as a monitor). As a result, for example, a screen on which video and information display windows are overlapped and displayed as shown in FIG. 6 is output.

  In the above screen, the user can arbitrarily move the playback position 34 between the recording start position and the recording end position 32 using the operation button group 21 or the like. Accordingly, the control unit 11 starts the reproduction process of the video information from the position indicated by the reproduction position 34 (S130). If the time shift reproduction is being performed, the reproduction position 34 can be moved any number of times.

  Next, the control unit 11 enters a state of accepting a chapter setting command. The control unit 11 having entered this state continuously monitors whether or not a chapter setting command has been detected (S140). Accordingly, S140 constitutes an editing unit that receives a chapter setting command (editing operation) for video information during time-shift playback. The chapter setting command is issued when the user performs a chapter designation operation using the operation button group 21 or the like.

  The control unit 11 that has detected the chapter setting command sets the chapter marker 35 for the position that is currently reproduced (or the position at which it is paused). The set chapter marker 35 information is temporarily stored in a storage device such as the memory 12 or the HDD 13 (S150). Accordingly, S150 constitutes a storage unit that stores the chapter marker 35 in the HDD 13.

  Next, the control unit 11 enters a state of accepting a deletion start point setting command. The control unit 11 that has entered this state continuously monitors whether or not a deletion start point setting command has been detected (S160). Therefore, S160 constitutes an editing unit that receives a deletion start point setting command (editing operation) for video information during time-shift playback. The deletion start point setting command is issued when the user performs a deletion range designation operation using the operation button group 21 or the like.

  The control unit 11 that has detected the deletion start point setting command sets the deletion start point 36a for the currently reproduced position (or the position at which it is paused). Information on the set deletion start point 36a is temporarily stored in a storage device such as the memory 12 or the HDD 13 (S170). Accordingly, S170 constitutes a storage unit that stores the deletion start point 36a in the HDD 13. On the other hand, when the deletion start point setting command is not detected, the process proceeds to S200 described later.

  Next, the control unit 11 enters a state of accepting a deletion end point setting command. The control unit 11 having entered this state continuously monitors whether or not a deletion start point setting command has been detected (S180). Accordingly, S180 constitutes an editing unit that receives a deletion end point setting command (editing operation) for video information during time-shift playback. The deletion end point setting command is issued when the user performs a deletion range designation operation using the operation button group 21 or the like.

  The control unit 11 that has detected the deletion end point setting command sets the deletion end point 36b for the currently reproduced position (or the paused position). The information of the set deletion end point 36b is temporarily stored in a storage device such as the memory 12 or the HDD 13 (S190). Accordingly, S190 constitutes a storage unit that stores the deletion end point 36b in the HDD 13. If the deletion end point setting command is not detected, the process of S180 is continued, and the deletion end point setting command is awaited.

  Next, the control unit 11 confirms whether or not a stop command for time shift reproduction is detected (S200). The stop command is issued when the user performs a time shift playback stop operation using the operation button group 21 or the like. If no stop command is detected, the process proceeds to S140.

  Conversely, when a stop command is detected, the control unit 11 checks whether or not the recording process currently being performed is completed (S210). If not completed, the process proceeds to S120. If completed, the various settings made in the processing of S150, S170, S190 are reflected in the recorded data, and this processing is terminated (S220). Accordingly, S220 constitutes a reflection unit that reflects various settings stored by the storage unit including S150, S170, and S190. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 3, two chapter divisions are set, and the video information in one deletion range is deleted.

[Embodiment 2]
<2-1. About internal structure of HDD recorder>
Since it is the same content as Embodiment 1, description is abbreviate | omitted here.

<2-2. Information display window>
Here, an information display window displayed by the OSD generation unit 19 in the HDD recorder 1 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the screen diagram of FIG.

  FIG. 5 is an example of an information display window that is displayed when performing time shift reproduction using the OSD function provided in the HDD recorder 1 of the present invention. In addition, about the component of the same content as the information display window shown in FIG.3 and FIG.6, description shall be abbreviate | omitted by adding the same code number. As shown in FIG. 5, the information display window of the HDD recorder 1 of the present embodiment includes at least a status display icon 31, a recording end position 32, a recording current position 33, a reproduction position 34, a deletion range 37, and a marker 38. It is configured to include.

  The marker 38 is a mark used to specify a chapter delimiter and a deletion range, and a plurality of markers 38 can be set at any position between the recording start position and the recording current position 33 of the video information. The marker 38 alone does not have a function, and is later converted into chapter divisions or used as a start point or an end point for designating a deletion range. Therefore, the information display window generated by the OSD generation unit 19 constitutes an editing unit that allows the user to edit the marker 38.

<2-3. Editing process during time shift>
Here, editing processing during time-shift playback of the HDD recorder 1 in the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG. 2, the flowchart of FIG. 4, and the screen diagram of FIG.

  FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the processing flow of the editing process during time shift according to the present invention. In addition, about the process of the same content as FIG. 1 of Embodiment 1, description shall be abbreviate | omitted by adding the same process number.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the processing from S110 to S130 is the same as that in the first embodiment, and thus the description thereof is omitted. The control unit 11 that has started the time shift reproduction in S130 enters a state of receiving a marker setting command next. The control unit 11 having entered this state continuously monitors whether or not a chapter setting command has been detected (S140a). Accordingly, S140a constitutes an editing unit that receives a chapter setting command (editing operation) for video information during time-shift playback. The marker setting command is issued when the user performs a marker creation operation using the operation button group 21 or the like.

  The control unit 11 that has detected the marker setting command sets the marker 38 for the currently reproduced position (or the paused position). The information of the set marker 38 is temporarily stored in the storage device such as the memory 12 or the HDD 13 (S150a). Therefore, S150a constitutes a storage unit for storing the marker 38 in the HDD 13.

  Next, the control unit 11 enters a state of accepting a deletion range designation command. The control unit 11 having entered this state continuously monitors whether or not a deletion range designation command has been detected (S160a). Accordingly, S160a constitutes an editing unit that receives a deletion range designation command (editing operation) for video information during time-shift playback. The deletion range designation command is issued when the user performs a deletion range designation operation using the operation button group 21 or the like. Specifically, an operation of selecting a plurality of arbitrary markers 38 from a plurality of markers 38 that have already been set is performed.

  Upon receiving the deletion range designation command, the control unit 11 sets a range sandwiched between the selected markers 38 as the deletion range 37. Information on the set deletion range 37 is temporarily stored in a storage device such as the memory 12 or the HDD 13 (S170a). Accordingly, S170a constitutes a storage unit that stores the deletion range 37 in the HDD 13. For example, in the example illustrated in FIG. 5, a range sandwiched between the marker 38 b and the marker 38 c is stored as the deletion range 37.

  Next, the control unit 11 enters a state of accepting a chapter setting command. The control unit 11 having entered this state continuously monitors whether or not a chapter setting command has been detected (S180a). Accordingly, S180a constitutes an editing unit that receives a chapter setting command (editing operation) for video information during time-shift playback. The chapter setting command is issued when the user performs a chapter specifying operation using the operation button group 21 or the like. Specifically, an operation of selecting an arbitrary marker 38 from the already set markers 38 is performed.

  Upon receiving the chapter setting command, the control unit 11 sets the position indicated by the selected marker 38 as a chapter break. The set chapter break information is temporarily stored in the storage device such as the memory 12 or the HDD 13 (S190a). Accordingly, S190a constitutes a storage unit that stores chapter breaks in the HDD 13. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 5, the marker 38a and the marker 38d can be stored as chapter delimiters.

  Next, the control unit 11 confirms whether or not a stop command for time shift reproduction has been detected (S200a). The stop command is issued when the user performs a time shift playback stop operation using the operation button group 21 or the like. If no stop command is detected, the process proceeds to S130.

  Conversely, when a stop command is detected, the control unit 11 checks whether or not the recording process currently being performed is completed (S210a). If not completed, the process proceeds to S120. If completed, the various settings made in the processing of S150a, S170a, and S190a are reflected in the recorded data, and this processing is terminated (S220a). Accordingly, S220 constitutes a reflection unit that reflects various settings stored by the storage unit including S150a, S170a, and S190a. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 5, two markers 38 (marker 38a and marker 38d) are set as chapter delimiters, and video information in one deletion range (deletion range 37) is deleted.
