Abstract

PURPOSE:To set a cut-in point and a cut-out point of the reproducing device without stopping a video recorder at the time of editing, by changing over the output of the reproducing device video recorder by a control part and displaying on a TV screen when a button for the reproducing device or for the video recorder is pushed. CONSTITUTION:At the time of recording, the output signal of a recording/reproducing circuit part 12 is connected to the TV 31 by an output changeover part 17 through an external output terminal 13, and the output signal of the reproducing device 30 is inputted to the circuit part 12 from an external output terminal 11. So, video and audio signals of the reproducing device 30 are recorded on a recording medium by the circuit part 12 and displayed on the screen of the TV 31 through the terminal 13. When the button 14 for the reproducing device is pushed at the time of program setting for the editing, the changeover part 17 is settled to the side of terminal 11 by fine a control signal of the control part 16, then the video and audio signals outputted from the reproducing device 30 are displayed on the TV 31. Further by pushing the button 15 for the video recorder, the reproduced output of the circuit part 12 is similarly displayed on the TV 31. Thus, the cut-in point and cut-out point of the reproducing device are set without temporarily stopping the video recorder at the time of program setting for the editing.

It is an external output terminal capable of outputting a signal from the recording / reproducing circuit unit 22 to the TV screen. 40 is an external input terminal 2 of the recorder
It is a regenerator capable of outputting a regenerated signal to No. 1. Reference numeral 41 is a TV capable of displaying a signal from the external output terminal 23 of the recorder.

The operation of the conventional VTR constructed as above will be described below.

In FIG. 2, a video / audio signal output from the reproducing device 40 is input to the external input terminal 21, enters the recording / reproducing circuit section 22, is recorded on the recording medium of the recorder, and is output from the external output terminal 23. To display. In addition, the video / audio signal reproduced on the recording medium of the recorder enters the recording / reproducing circuit unit 22 and is preferentially output to the external output terminal 23 over the video / audio signal of the reproducer input to the external input terminal 21. It is output and displayed on the TV 41.

[0006]

However, in the above configuration, when the recording medium of the recorder is being reproduced, the video / audio signal of the reproducer cannot be displayed on the TV screen.
When setting the editing program, temporarily stop the recording medium of the recorder, display the video and audio signals of the player on the TV screen, and set the cut-in and cut-out points of the player.
Then, the recording medium of the recorder must be reproduced to set the cut-in point and the cut-out point of the recorder.

In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus capable of setting a cut-in point and a cut-out point of a reproducing device without temporarily stopping a recording medium of a recording device when setting an editing program. It is provided.

[0008]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the VTR of the present invention has an external input terminal to which a video / audio signal of a reproducing device can be input, and a signal from the external input terminal is recorded on a recording medium. A recording / reproducing circuit unit capable of reproducing the recording medium of the recorder, an external output terminal capable of outputting a signal from the recording / reproducing circuit unit to a TV screen, and a video / audio signal of the reproducing unit to a TV.
Controls the player button that is pressed when outputting to the screen, the recorder button that is pressed when outputting the video / audio signals of the recorder to the TV screen, and the video / audio signal that is output to the TV screen by inputting the player button / recorder button Control unit and an output switching unit that can switch the output of the video / audio signal from the player and the video / audio signal from the recording / playback circuit unit to the external output terminal under the control of the control unit. is there.

[0009]

According to the present invention, with the above configuration, the video / audio signal of the reproducing device is displayed on the TV screen even when the recording medium of the recorder is being reproduced by the reproducer button which is pressed when outputting the video / audio signal of the reproducing device to the TV screen. It is possible to display and set the cut-in point and cut-out point of the player without temporarily stopping the recording medium of the recorder when setting the editing program. By switching, the cut-in point and cut-out point can be set from either the playback device or the recording device.
