JP 2005-100510 A JP-A-9-307841

  As described above, the recording / reproducing apparatus in which the reproduction position is automatically advanced after fast-forwarding the reproduction position by 30 seconds by one operation of the skip key has the following problems. That is, it is necessary to operate the skip key four times when it is applied to a commercial that usually has a duration of about 2 minutes. Also, the commercial period is 30 seconds as a deceleration, but if there is a commercial that deviates from the principle of 10 seconds or 15 seconds, the commercial cannot be skipped well.

  In addition, as described above, in the recording / reproducing apparatus in which fast-forwarding is started by the operation of the skip key, and then the black frame at the end of the commercial is detected to automatically enter the reproduction state, the following problems There is a point. That is, the commercial skip accuracy depends on the black frame detection accuracy, and a detection unit for detecting the black frame must be prepared, which is expensive.

  Note that there is a similar problem when recording is skipped at a commercial portion, for example, based on the operation of a skip key while content data of a broadcast program is being recorded.

  An object of the present invention is, for example, to be able to skip commercials inexpensively and satisfactorily.

The concept of the present invention is
Reproduction unit for reproducing content data of a predetermined program from a recording medium on which content data of the broadcast program is recorded, and outputting program information including information on the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of the predetermined program, and each broadcast channel A skip time table that stores a skip time corresponding to the broadcast day of the week and broadcast time, a fast-forward key for fast-forwarding the reproduction position of the content data reproduced by the reproduction unit, and reproduction by the reproduction unit A rewind key for rewinding the reproduction position of the content data, a skip key for skipping the reproduction position of the content data reproduced by the reproduction unit, and a control unit for controlling the operation of the reproduction unit; comprising a, the control unit in a state where content data of a predetermined program by the reproduction section is reproduced, the fast forward When the key or the rewind key is operated, if the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of the predetermined program is not stored in the skip time table, the skip time table stores the skip time. As the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of a predetermined program, the time from the playback position when the fast forward key or the rewind key is operated to the playback position after the final change by the operation writing, in a state where content data of a predetermined program by the reproduction section is reproduced, the skip key, the fast-forward key or when the rewind key is operated, and the skip time table, the broadcast of the predetermined program When the skip time corresponding to the channel, broadcast day and broadcast time is stored, The reproduction position of the content data of the predetermined program in the raw portion in the content data reproducing apparatus to skip only the skip time.

  In the present invention, content data of a predetermined program is reproduced from a recording medium on which content data of a broadcast program is recorded. When the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced, program information including information on the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of the predetermined program is also output. In addition, a skip time table is prepared. In this skip time table, a skip time is stored for each broadcast channel in association with the broadcast day of the week and the broadcast time.

When the fast forward key or rewind key is operated while the content data of a predetermined program is being played, the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time is stored in the skip time table. If not, the skip time table shows the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of the predetermined program from the playback position when the fast forward key or rewind key is operated. The time until the playback position after the change is written. Further, in a state in which content data of a predetermined program is being reproduced, the skip key, if the fast-forward key or rewind key is operated, the skip time table, a broadcast channel of the predetermined program corresponding to the broadcast day and broadcast time when skip time that is stored, a reproduction position of the content data of the predetermined program is skipped by the skip time.

In this way, the skip time table finally changes as a skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time from the playback position when the fast forward key or rewind key is operated. The time until the later reproduction position is written, and the skip time table can be completed. Further, by operating the fast forward key or the rewind key, the skip time to be written to the skip time table can be set more finely than when the skip key is used. Further, when any of the fast forward key, the rewind key, and the skip key is operated, the playback position is skipped by the skip time stored in the skip time table, for example, stored in the skip time table. If the skip time corresponds to the commercial time in the predetermined program, the commercial can be skipped with high accuracy by one of the fast-forward key, rewind key and skip key, and black frames etc. can be detected. Thus, the skip time is not controlled, the skip accuracy is not affected by the detection accuracy, and the detection unit is not required so that it can be constructed at low cost.

Further, for example, when in the correction mode, the skip time table, a broadcast channel of a predetermined program, a broadcast day of the week and as a skip time corresponding to the broadcast time, the operation from the playback position when the fast-forward key or rewind key is operated The time until the playback position after the final change is written. As a result, when the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of the predetermined program already exists in the skip time table, the value can be corrected.

According to the present invention, when the skip key or the like is operated in a state where the content data of the predetermined program is being reproduced from the recording medium on which the content data of the broadcast program is recorded, the skip time table is stored. broadcast channel of a given program, only the broadcast day and broadcast time skip time corresponding to is intended to skip a reproduction position of the content data of the predetermined program, it can be performed, for example to skip commercials inexpensively and satisfactorily.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a configuration of a recording / reproducing apparatus 100 that records and reproduces content data (video data, audio data) of a broadcast program as an embodiment.

  The recording / reproducing apparatus 100 includes a control unit 101 that controls the operation of the entire apparatus, and an operation unit 102 and a display unit 103 as a user interface connected to the control unit 101. The control unit 101 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 101a, a ROM (read only memory) 101b, a RAM (random access memory) 101c, a nonvolatile memory 101d, and a clock circuit 101e. The CPU 101a performs all software processing and hardware control. The ROM 101b stores a control program for controlling the operation of the CPU 101a. The RAM 101c functions as a working area for the CPU 101a.

  The CPU 101a reads the control program stored in the ROM 101b as necessary, transfers the read control program to the RAM 101c, and develops it. The CPU 101a controls each unit of the recording / reproducing apparatus 100 by reading and executing the control program developed in the RAM 101c.

  The nonvolatile memory 101d stores a skip time table 101s. The clock circuit 101e generates date and time information. The skip time table 101s stores the skip time in association with the broadcast day of the week and the broadcast time for each broadcast channel. This skip time is used as a time for skipping (stopping) recording when content data is recorded, and as a time for skipping the playback position when content data is being played back.

  FIG. 2 shows an example of the skip time table 101s in a predetermined broadcast channel. In this example, the unit time is 1 hour, but other unit time, for example, 15 minutes or 30 minutes may be used. In this example, the broadcast day of the week and the broadcast time portion in which the skip time is not stored are hatched. In this portion, as will be described later, a skip key 102f is set during recording or reproduction. By operating, the skip time can be stored. Further, even if the skip day is already stored, the value of the broadcast day and the broadcast time can be corrected when the skip key 102f is operated in the correction mode.

  The operation unit 111 is an operation key for the user to select a broadcast channel, a rewind key 102a, a reproduction key 102b, a fast-forward key 102c, a stop key 102d, and a recording (recording) key 102e for the user to operate recording and reproduction. Various operation keys such as a skip key 102f are provided. The skip key 102f is used to instruct to skip recording at the time of recording, and to instruct to skip the playback position at the time of reproduction. The display unit 103 includes a display element such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or a PDP (Plasma Display Panel).

  The recording / reproducing apparatus 100 includes a receiving antenna 104, a tuner 105, a signal processing unit 106, an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) 107, and a television monitor 108. The tuner 105 acquires content data (video data and audio data) of a predetermined program in the selected broadcast channel from the broadcast signal received by the receiving antenna 104. The HDD 107 includes a hard disk as a storage medium, and records and reproduces content data of a predetermined program on the hard disk. Here, the HDD 107 constitutes a recording unit and a reproduction unit.

  The signal processing unit 106 processes the content data acquired by the tuner 105. For example, at the time of recording, processing such as error correction encoding and recording modulation encoding is performed on the content data of a predetermined program to generate recording data, and this recording data is supplied to the HDD 107. Further, for example, at the time of reproduction, the reproduction data of the predetermined program from the HDD 107 is decrypted, and the content data of the predetermined program is acquired and supplied to the television monitor 108.

  When content data of a predetermined program is recorded on the HDD 107, program information including information on the broadcast channel and date / time of the predetermined program is recorded corresponding to the content data of the predetermined program. The broadcast channel and date / time information of the predetermined program recorded in the HDD 107 in this way is reproduced when the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced from the HDD 107 and output from the HDD 107.

  Next, the operation of the recording / reproducing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. A broadcast signal received by the receiving antenna 104 is supplied to the tuner 105. In the tuner 105, content data (video data and audio data) of a predetermined program in the broadcast channel selected by the user operating the operation unit 102 is obtained. The content data of the predetermined program is supplied to the television monitor 108 via the signal processing unit 106. As a result, the television monitor 108 displays an image based on the content data of the predetermined program and outputs sound.

  In this state, when the user operates the recording key 102e of the operation unit 102, the signal processing unit 106 performs processing such as error correction coding and recording modulation coding on the content data of the predetermined program, Recorded data is obtained. Then, this recording data is supplied to the HDD 107 and recorded. In this case, information on the broadcast channel and broadcast date / time is supplied from the control unit 101 to the HDD 107, and is recorded corresponding to the content data of the predetermined program.

  Further, when the user operates the playback key 102 b of the operation unit 102, playback data of a predetermined program can be obtained from the HDD 107. This reproduction data is supplied to the signal processing unit 106. In the signal processing unit 106, the reproduction data is decrypted, and the content data of the predetermined program is obtained. The content data of the predetermined program is supplied to the television monitor 108. As a result, the television monitor 108 displays an image based on the content data of the reproduced predetermined program and outputs sound.

  When the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced from the HDD 107 in this way, the broadcast channel and date / time information of the predetermined program recorded in the HDD 107 is reproduced. The broadcast channel and date / time information is supplied to the control unit 101 and used when the skip key 102f is operated as will be described later.

  Here, the control operation of the CPU 101a when the skip key 102f is operated while the content data of a predetermined program is recorded in the HDD 107 (recording state) will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  When in the recording state of step ST1, it is determined in step ST2 whether or not the skip key 102f has been operated. When the skip key 102f is operated, in step ST3, information on the recording channel and the recording date and time when the skip key 102f is operated is acquired. Here, the recording channel means a broadcast channel related to the content data of a predetermined program recorded when the skip key 102f is operated, and the recording date and time means the date and time when the skip key 102f is operated. This date and time information is generated by the clock circuit 101e.

  Next, in step ST4, it is determined whether or not the correction mode is set. Although not described above, the user can set and cancel the correction mode by operating a predetermined key of the operation unit 102. When not in the correction mode, the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, the broadcast day of the week, and the broadcast time indicated in the skip time table 101s of the non-volatile memory 101d by the recording channel and the recording date and time information acquired in step ST3 in step ST5 Whether or not is stored is determined. When the skip time is stored, in step ST6, the operation of the HDD 107 is controlled to skip (stop) recording for the skip time. Thereafter, the process returns to step ST1.

  If the skip time is not stored in step ST5, the process proceeds to step ST7. If the correction mode is in step ST4 described above, the process immediately proceeds to step ST7. In this step ST7, the count value of the pressing number counter for counting the number of pressings (the number of operations) of the skip key 102f is incremented. In step ST8, recording is skipped for a predetermined time. Here, the fixed time is a skip time corresponding to one operation of the skip key 102f. For example, since the commercial period is in principle 30 seconds, this fixed time is set to 30 seconds.

  Next, in step ST9, after skipping recording for a fixed time in step ST8, it is determined whether or not the skip key 102f has been operated again within a predetermined time, for example, 10 seconds. If the skip key 102f is operated again within a predetermined time, the process returns to step ST7, the count value of the number-of-presses counter is incremented, and recording is skipped again for a fixed time.

  If it is determined in step ST9 that the skip key 102f has not been operated again within a predetermined time, a skip time is calculated in step ST10. In this case, the skip time Tsk is obtained by the equation Tsk = N × T, where T is the above-mentioned fixed time and N is the number of operations of the skip key 102f indicated by the count value of the above-mentioned press counter. .

  Next, in step ST11, the skip time table 101s is calculated in step ST10 as the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time indicated by the recording channel and the recording date and time information acquired in step ST3. The skip time Tsk is stored. In this case, if the skip time is already stored, it is overwritten. Thereby, the skip time is corrected.

  Next, in step ST12, the count value of the press counter is reset to zero. Thereafter, the process returns to step ST1.

  A control operation of the CPU 101a when the skip key 102f is operated while content data of a predetermined program is being reproduced from the HDD 107 (reproduction state) will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  When in the reproduction state of step ST21, it is determined in step ST22 whether or not the skip key 102f has been operated. When the skip key 102f is operated, in step ST23, information on the recording channel and the recording date and time when the skip key 102f is operated is acquired. Here, the recording channel means a broadcast channel related to the content data of a predetermined program being played when the skip key 102f is operated, and the recording date / time is recorded as the content data of the predetermined program being played when the skip key 102f is operated. Means the date and time. This date and time information is output from the HDD 107 when the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced from the HDD 107.

  Next, in step ST24, it is determined whether or not the correction mode is set. When not in the correction mode, in step ST25, the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time indicated in the skip time table 101s of the nonvolatile memory 101d by the recording channel and the recording date and time information acquired in step ST23. Whether or not is stored is determined. If the skip time is stored, in step ST26, the operation of the HDD 107 is controlled to skip the playback position for the skip time. Thereafter, the process returns to step ST21.

  If the skip time is not stored in step ST25, the process proceeds to step ST27. If the correction mode is in step ST24 described above, the process immediately proceeds to step ST27. In this step ST27, the count value of the pressing number counter for counting the number of pressings (the number of operations) of the skip key 102f is incremented. In step ST28, the playback position is skipped for a predetermined time. Here, the fixed time is a skip time corresponding to one operation of the skip key 102f. For example, since the commercial period is in principle 30 seconds, this fixed time is set to 30 seconds.

  Next, in step ST29, after skipping the reproduction position for a predetermined time in step ST28, it is determined whether or not the skip key 102f has been operated again within a predetermined time, for example, 10 seconds. If the skip key 102f is operated again within the predetermined time, the process returns to step ST27, the count value of the number-of-presses counter is incremented, and the playback position is skipped again for a fixed time.

  If it is determined in step ST29 that the skip key 102f has not been operated again within a predetermined time, a skip time is calculated in step ST30. In this case, the skip time Tsk is obtained by the equation Tsk = N × T, where T is the above-mentioned fixed time and N is the number of operations of the skip key 102f indicated by the count value of the above-mentioned press counter. .

  Next, in step ST31, the skip time table 101s is calculated in step ST30 as the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time indicated by the recording channel and recording date and time information acquired in step ST23. The skip time Tsk is stored. In this case, if the skip time is already stored, it is overwritten. Thereby, the skip time is corrected.

  Next, in step ST32, the count value of the pressing number counter is reset to zero. Thereafter, the process returns to step ST21.

  According to the recording / reproducing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, when the skip key 102f is operated in the recording state or the reproduction state, the recording or reproduction position is skipped for the skip time stored in the skip time table 101s, respectively. For example, if the skip time stored in the skip time table 101s corresponds to the commercial time in the predetermined program, the commercial can be skipped with a single operation of the skip key 102f with high accuracy. Thereby, useless accumulation in the HDD 107 can be reduced during recording. According to the recording / reproducing apparatus 100, the skip time is not controlled by detecting a black frame or the like, the skip accuracy is not affected by the detection accuracy, and the detection unit is not required. It can be configured at low cost only.

  Further, according to the recording / reproducing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, if the skip time table 101s does not store the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, the broadcast day of the week, and the broadcast time of the predetermined program, the skip is performed in the recording state or the reproduction state. By operating the key 102f, the skip time corresponding to the number of operations of the skip key 102f is written in the skip time table 101s, and the skip time table can be completed.

  Further, according to the recording / reproducing apparatus 100 shown in FIG. 1, when the skip key 102f is operated in the recording state or the reproduction state, or when in the correction mode, the skip time table 101s includes the broadcast channel and broadcast day of the predetermined program. Even if the skip time corresponding to the broadcast time is stored, the skip time corresponding to the number of operations of the skip key 102f is overwritten, and the skip time can be corrected.

  In the above embodiment, the playback position is skipped when the skip key 102f is operated in the playback state. However, in addition to the skip key 102f, the fast forward key 102c and the rewind key 102a are provided. Even when operated, the playback position can be skipped.

  FIG. 5 shows the control operation of the CPU 101a in that case.

  When in the reproduction state of step ST41, it is determined in step ST42 whether any one of the skip key 102f, the fast forward key 102c, and the rewind key 102a is operated. When there is a key operation, in step ST43, information on the recording channel and the recording date and time at the time of the key operation is acquired. Here, the recording channel means a broadcast channel related to the content data of the predetermined program being reproduced at the time of key operation, and the recording date / time means the date / time at which the content data of the predetermined program being reproduced at the time of key operation was recorded. Yes. This date and time information is output from the HDD 107 when the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced from the HDD 107.

  Next, in step ST44, it is determined whether or not the correction mode is set. When not in the correction mode, in step ST45, the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time indicated by the recording channel and recording date / time information acquired in step ST43 in the skip time table 101s of the nonvolatile memory 101d. Whether or not is stored is determined. If the skip time is stored, in step ST46, the operation of the HDD 107 is controlled to skip the playback position for the skip time. Thereafter, the process returns to step ST41.

  If the skip time is not stored in step ST45, the process proceeds to step ST47. If the correction mode is in step ST44 described above, the process immediately proceeds to step ST47. In this step ST47, the start time indicating the reproduction position when the key operation is started is held. As described above, the start time is acquired from the recording date and time information output from the HDD 107 as the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced.

  Next, in step ST48, the playback position is changed in accordance with the operation of each key. In this case, when the skip key 102f is operated, the playback position is skipped for a predetermined time. When the fast forward key 102c is operated, the playback position is fast forwarded only while the fast forward key 102c is pressed. Further, when the rewind key 102a is operated, the playback position is rewound only while the rewind key 102a is being pressed.

  Next, in step ST49, an end time indicating the playback position when the change of the playback position due to the operation of each key ends is held. As described above, this end time is also acquired from the recording date and time information output from the HDD 107 as the content data of the predetermined program is reproduced. Then, in step ST50, after the change of the reproduction position by the operation of each key is completed, whether any one of the skip key 102f, the fast forward key 102c, and the rewind key 102a is operated within a predetermined time, for example, 10 seconds. Determine whether. If a key operation is performed within a predetermined time, the process returns to step ST48, and the playback position is changed in accordance with the operation of each key.

  In step ST50, when there is no key operation within a predetermined time, the process proceeds to step ST51. In step ST51, a skip time is calculated. In this case, the skip time Tsk is obtained by subtracting the start time held in step 47 from the end time finally held in step 49.

  Next, in step ST52, the skip time table 101s is calculated in step ST51 as the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time indicated by the recording channel and the recording date and time information acquired in step ST43. The skip time Tsk is stored. In this case, when the skip time is already stored, the skip time is corrected by overwriting. After step ST52, the process returns to step ST41.

  In this case, when any one of the skip key 102f, fast forward key 102c, and rewind key 102a is operated, the playback position is skipped by the skip time stored in the skip time table 101s. For example, the skip time If the skip time stored in the table 101s corresponds to the commercial time in the predetermined program, the skip of the commercial can be accurately performed with only one operation of the skip key 102f, fast forward key 102c, and rewind key 102a. Can be done well. Also in this case, the skip time is not controlled by detecting a black frame or the like, the skip accuracy is not affected by the detection accuracy, and it can be configured at a low cost as long as the detection unit is not required.

  In this case, when the skip time corresponding to the broadcast channel, broadcast day of the week, and broadcast time of the predetermined program is not stored in the skip time table 101s, the key operation is started as the skip time in the skip time table. The time from the reproduction position to the reproduction position after the final change by the operation of each key is written, and the skip time table can be completed.

  In this case, by operating the fast-forward key 102c and the rewind key 102a, the skip time to be written in the skip time table 101s can be set more finely than when only the skip key 102f is used. For example, it is possible to easily set a skip time corresponding to a commercial that deviates from the principle of 10 seconds or 15 seconds (in units of 30 seconds). In addition, an arbitrary skip time can be easily set such that the repeated portion of the main program before the commercial start after the commercial ends is skipped.

  Further, in this case, when the skip key 102f, fast forward key 102c, rewind key 102a is operated in the recording state or the playback state, or in the correction mode, the skip time table 101s includes the broadcast channel of the predetermined program, the broadcast day of the week, and Even if the skip time corresponding to the broadcast time is stored, the time from the playback position when the key operation is started to the playback position after the final change by each key operation is written. Time correction can be made.

  In the above-described embodiment, when the user operates the skip key 102f or the like in the recording state or the reproduction state, the skip time table is written in the skip time table 101s in the nonvolatile memory 101d. The ones that will complete 101s are shown. However, the data of the skip time table 101s is extracted from, for example, a broadcast signal received by the tuner 105, or a drive such as a disk-shaped recording medium or a memory card can be connected to the control unit 101. A configuration in which data of the skip time table 101s is acquired from a medium, a memory card, or the like may be employed. Accordingly, the user can easily update the skip time table 101s at the time of program reorganization without performing a cumbersome operation for writing the skip time in the skip time table 101s, and can perform a skip operation well corresponding to a new program or the like. Become.

  In the above-described embodiment, the content data of the program is based on a television broadcast. However, the present invention can be similarly applied to a recording / reproducing apparatus that handles content data of a radio broadcast program, for example. The recording medium is not limited to a hard disk, and may be a tape-shaped recording medium, a semiconductor memory, or the like.

  The present invention can perform commercial skipping inexpensively and satisfactorily, and can be applied to, for example, a hard disk recorder or a video cassette recorder that records and reproduces content data of a television program.
