Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 The present invention reproduces the audiovisual information recorded on a DVD (digital versatile disc). A DVD player that outputs live video and audio signals and a television broadcast Video sound having a configuration integrated with a television receiver that outputs a video / audio signal The present invention relates to a voice reproducing device, and more particularly to a television receiver integrated with a DVD player.

[0002]

[Prior art]

  With the recent development of digital video technology, it is possible to record a large amount of audiovisual information. DVD players that play back DVDs that are capable of playing are becoming popular. Such a DVD The player is sold separately and is sold as an integrated TV receiver. It is known to be sold.

[0003]   A video / audio reproducing device in which a DVD player and a television receiver are integrated is DVD play that reproduces the audiovisual information recorded in VD and outputs the audiovisual signal And a television receiver that receives a television broadcast and outputs a video and audio signal. And an external device that outputs a video and audio signal (other DVD play Many of them have a configuration that can be connected thereto.

[0004]   In addition, such a video / audio reproducing device uses a video / audio signal from a DVD player unit. And the audio / video signal from the TV receiver and the audio / video signal from an external device. Of the selected video and audio signals, A display device for inputting and displaying an image and an audio signal of the selected audiovisual signal. It is equipped with a voice generation device such as a speaker or headphone that inputs a signal to generate voice. I am.

[0005]   Here, the case of reproducing a DVD in this video / audio generating device will be described. To do. First, turn on the power of the DVD player unit, set the DVD in the tray, and The raw switch is turned on to start playing the DVD. Playback of the DVD starts Then, before the video and audio information of the main part is reproduced, for example, copy prohibition information and open The playback screen, menu screen, etc. are sequentially played back from the DVD and displayed on the display device. By selecting the audiovisual information that you want to play on the menu screen The image based on this selected audiovisual information is displayed on the display device, and The voice will be generated from the voice generator.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

  However, as described above, the DVD contains a combination of the video and audio information other than the main part. Manufacturing prohibition information, opening screen information, menu screen information, etc. are recorded. Example of displaying the menu screen until the video and audio information of the main part is played For example, it takes 20 to 30 seconds, during which the user displays the menu screen on the display device. Have to wait until the screen to wait, which is boring and interesting for the user. It was.

[0007]   By the way, for example, an optical disk image disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-106770 The playback device incorporates another video signal source device, The playback start position from the disc is set in advance, and the switching signal from the switching signal generating means is set. Alternately operating the other video signal source device and the optical disk video device for each occurrence The video signal is sent from the device that has been put into the operating state, and the The optical disc video reproducing device is set to the preset reproduction start state in the initial operating state. Playback is started from the start position, and in the subsequent operating state, the previous operating state ends. Although it is made to play from the playback position at the end, when the main part of the DVD is played Until the video and audio information of is read out, it is displayed by switching to another image. Therefore, the purpose is different from this case.

[0008]   In the information reproducing apparatus disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-283718, the recording medium is You can display the waiting time from the request for playback to the body until the playback starts with time, or an illustration The illustration is displayed together with the time display or the time display. Until the video and audio information of the edition is read out, it is possible to switch to another image for display. However, the purpose is different from this case.

[0009]   Further, in the karaoke device disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-099046, Until the recording medium for the orchestral music is set on the other medium reproducing means, the other medium is reproduced. Plays the video information of the recording medium set for the live means as an alternative video However, until the video and audio information of the main part is read during DVD playback During this period, the image is not displayed by switching to another image, so the purpose is different from this case. It

[0010]   Further, the advertisement display device and the advertisement disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-155066 In the display method and the computer-readable recording medium, the advertisement data storage means Monitor images and / or audio for advertising using better stored ad data Although it is designed to output, the video and audio information of the main part is read during DVD playback. Until this is done, it is not possible to switch to another image and display it. The purpose is different.

[0011]   Further, in the disk device disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2002-050169, A user for notifying the operating status of disk drive and transport by means of indicator lights such as LEDs It has a notification part that blinks the indicator light while inserting, rotating and ejecting the disc. However, the video and audio information of the main part is read during DVD playback. During the period, the purpose is different from this case because it is not displayed by switching to another image. Become.

[0012]   The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and when reproducing a DVD. Switch to another image and display until the video and audio information of the main part is read. It is an object of the present invention to provide a video / audio reproduction device capable of reproducing.
