[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional audio apparatus main body, the recording speed is indicated to the user by lighting a predetermined LED, displaying characters on the display, or the like. However, when the user wants to know the recording speed, he cannot understand which LED lights indicate the recording speed, or has to read the characters on the display, and cannot understand it quickly.
[0004]
An object of the present invention is to provide a recording / playback apparatus that allows a user to quickly know the recording mode being executed.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The recording / playback apparatus according to the present invention includes a first output source that outputs information, and a first recording that has a plurality of recording modes and that can record information output from the first output source in any recording mode. And source. The recording / playback apparatus further includes a first display unit that displays a first picture corresponding to the first output source when the first output source is selected, and the first recording source is selected. And a second display unit for displaying a second picture corresponding to the first recording source. While the information output from the first output source is being recorded in one of the recording modes by the first recording source, the second display unit corresponds to the recording mode being executed by the first recording source. The display of the picture 2 is changed by moving image expression.
[0006]
The information includes not only the case of both audio information and visual information, but also the case of only audio information and the case of only visual information. The output source includes, for example, a tuner, a CD (compact disc), an MD (mini disc), a cassette tape, a DVD (digital video disc), and the like. Examples of the recording source include an MD and a cassette tape. Note that, like MD, the same source may be an output source at one time and a recording source at another time. Further, in a recording / playback apparatus in which a plurality of sources of the same kind are loaded, the first one is reproduced in the same kind of sources, and the second one can be recorded, the same kind of sources are used as the output source and the recording source. Sometimes selected.
[0007]
In order to allow the user to distinguish between the output source side and the recording source side of the picture corresponding to the output source selected by the user and the picture corresponding to the recording source, for example, the following (a) and (b) are: is there.
(A) A system in which the first and second display units are set at different specific locations in the same display, and are distinguished by the display location on the display. Example: A picture corresponding to an output source and a picture corresponding to a recording source are arranged on the left side and the right side in the same display, respectively, and arranged on the upper side and the lower side, respectively.
(B) In the display, an arrow is displayed from the picture corresponding to the output source to the picture corresponding to the recording source, the arrowhead is a picture corresponding to the output source, and the arrowhead is a picture corresponding to the recording source. To do.
[0008]
Changes in the moving image representation of a picture include a change in outline, a movement of the outline, a color change of pixels constituting the outline, and blinking.
[0009]
When the recording mode is a recording mode due to a difference in recording speed, the moving picture representation of the picture corresponding to the recording source corresponding to the recording mode being executed is, for example, a low rotational speed as a display change of the picture. The speed and the high recording speed are low and high, respectively.
[0010]
Thus, the user can quickly grasp the recording mode being executed from the moving picture representation of the picture corresponding to the recording source.
[0011]
According to the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention, the recording mode of the first recording source relates to the recording speed.
[0012]
The recording speed includes, for example, normal speed and double speed (= 2 times speed).
[0013]
According to the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention, the information reproduction speed by the first output source corresponds to the recording speed of the first recording source. While the information reproduced by the first output source is being recorded at any recording speed by the first recording source, the first display unit corresponds to the reproduction speed being executed by the first output source. The display of 1 picture is changed by moving image expression.
[0014]
The playback speed at the output source and the recording speed at the recording source are usually approximately equal, but may not be equal. For example, if the playback signal reproduced by the output source is not directly recorded in the recording source, but once written in a semiconductor memory, etc., then read out and recorded in the recording source, the playback speed at the output source Even if the recording speed at the recording source is different, the information can be recorded from the output source to the recording source. However, in that case, the higher the playback speed at the output source and the higher the recording speed at the recording source, the processing is suspended as appropriate in order to match the slower one.
[0015]
The change in the moving image representation of the pictorial diagrams of both the output source and the recording source corresponds to the reproduction speed and the recording speed, so that the user can clearly and quickly know the recording speed being executed.

[0017]
Each picture corresponding to the output source and the recording source, when the display location on the first and second display units is fixed during the change of the moving image expression, naturally, the first and second predetermined points respectively. It is included as a display point.
[0018]
The moving images of the pictorial diagrams corresponding to the output source and the recording source include the first and second predetermined points as display points, respectively, thereby limiting the display locations on the first and second display units, respectively. The display area required for such display can be saved.
[0019]
The recording / playback apparatus according to the present invention includes a second output source different from the first output source that outputs information, and a first output source that can record information output from the first output source or the second output source. A second recording source different from the recording source. A third picture displayed on the first display unit is defined corresponding to the second output source, and a fourth picture displayed on the second display unit is defined corresponding to the second recording source. The combination of the output source selected to output information different from the combination of the first output source and the first recording source and the combination of the recording source selected to record this information is also the first display unit. Displays a picture corresponding to the selected output source including the first predetermined point as a display point, and the second display unit displays a picture corresponding to the selected recording source to the second predetermined point. Including and displaying as dots.
[0020]
When a combination other than the combination of the first output source and the first recording source, that is, the combination of the second output source and the second recording source is selected, the third and fourth corresponding to them are selected. Since the moving image of the pictorial diagram includes the first and second predetermined points as display points, the display location on the display is limited. As a result, the display area necessary for the display can be saved.
[0021]
According to the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention, the reproduction speed of information by the selected output source corresponds to the recording speed of the selected recording source. While the information reproduced at the selected output source is being recorded at the selected recording source at any recording speed, the first display unit is a picture corresponding to the reproducing speed being executed at the selected output source. The second display unit changes the display of the picture corresponding to the recording speed being executed by the selected recording source with the moving image expression.
[0022]
In any combination of the output source and the recording source, the output source and the recording source displayed on the first and second display units are pictorial diagrams of moving image expressions corresponding to the playback speed and recording speed being executed, respectively. Can smoothly recognize the reproduction speed and the recording speed from the moving picture representation.
[0023]
According to the recording / playback apparatus of the present invention, the first display unit, the second display unit, the output source selection means for selecting the first output source or the second output source, the first recording source or The recording source selection means for selecting the second recording source is disposed on the same operation panel surface of the apparatus main body.

For example, when selecting an output source or a recording source, the user can confirm the operation result while confirming the hand at the time of the source selection operation, and the user can confirm the operation result without moving the viewpoint so much. Confirmation becomes easy.
[0025]
According to the recording / playback apparatus of the present invention, the first display unit and the second display unit occupy different areas in one display surface.
[0026]
For example, if a picture corresponding to an output source and a picture corresponding to a recording source are displayed side by side in one display screen, the user can determine which source is the output source and which source is the recording source. Can be easily identified.
[0027]
According to the recording / playback apparatus of the present invention, the moving picture representation of the picture is a color change and / or at least a part of pixels constituting the picture while flashing while maintaining the shape of the picture.
[0028]
Since the moving image expression by the color change and the pixel blinking can be expressed without moving, the area necessary for displaying the moving image picture can be saved.
[0029]
According to the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention, the picture corresponding to the selected recording source includes the picture part indicating the permission / non-permission state of recording to the recording source.
[0030]
For example, a medium such as an MD or a cassette tape has a claw that can be set to permit or prohibit recording, and the user operates the nail to change the position of the nail, thereby permitting or prohibiting recording on the medium. It can be switched. Since the picture corresponding to the source includes a picture part indicating the recording permission state of the recording source, the user can check the recording source recording permission state from the display of the source without examining the recording source medium itself.
