Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain a minute edition by providing a memory storing an event formed by a tlelevision special effect generator so as to separate the edition from the television special effect generator. CONSTITUTION:A bubble memory cassette 7 is loaded to a bubble holder 6 and an event data is transferred to an event memory 3 via an interface 5. The editing device is separated completely from the television special effect generator 9 at this point of time. The transfer operation is executed by allowing a control section 2 to decode an instruction inputted from a keyboard 4 so as to control each part. Further, the control section 2 executes the rearrangement of the arrangement order of plural events in the memory 3, the replacement of the event, copy, and edition such as deletion of a part of events, addition and insertion by using the instruction inputted from a keyboard 4.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a television special effects editing device for editing a series of control data for a television.

Television special effects include, for example, the smoothing or reduction of a certain image. It is an attempt to achieve special effects by rotating, flipping, displaying multiple identical images, or a combination of these. Obtained by processing with control data.

This series of control data collection is called an event. The event is created with a television special effects generator. Conventionally, the television special effect generating device is equipped with a function for editing multiple events, but it can be done easily by adding, deleting, and inserting control data.
Only a limited amount of editing or modification of a limited portion of the control data within Event I can be performed.

It is an object of the present invention to solve the related drawbacks of the prior art and to provide more advanced functions such as reordering, exchanging, duplicating multiple events, modifying data within an event, etc. independently of the television special effects generating device. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a special effects editing device that can be edited.

The collection device of the present invention includes an event memory for storing a series of control data created by a television special effects generating device, and is connected to an external device and/or an external memory and performs 1iii event memory data transfer with these. an interface section for displaying the contents of the series of control data stored in the event memory, a display output section for displaying the arrangement of the control data, etc.;
iii) a command input section for inputting commands such as writing to the event memory, changing the sequence of control data stored in the vent memory, etc.; The present invention is characterized in that it includes a control unit for managing and controlling, and allows editing such as changing the order of a plurality of control data and deleting and adding some control data.

Next, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings.

The figure is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. Namely, an event memory 3 that can store multiple events, and a bubble pole taro.

Floppy disk8. An interface 5 for transferring events input from a television special effect generator 9 etc. to the event memory 3, and instructions for transferring the events and changing the arrangement order of a plurality of events stored in the event memory 3. A display device 1 for displaying and outputting the editing status of event data and event arrangement in the event memory 3, and a control section 2 for managing and controlling the operation of the entire device. There is. The bubble holder 6 makes a bubble memory cassette I-7 into foil, reads out event data created by a television special effect generator (not shown), and is stored in the bubble memory cassette 7, and supplies it to the interface 5.

The floppy disk 8 similarly reads event data stored on the floppy disk. Direct memory access (
It is also possible to directly transfer the data to the event memory 3 using the DMA) method.

In this embodiment, the bubble memory cassette 7 is attached to the bubble holder 6 and transferred to the event memory 3 via the interface 5. At this point, the present device and the television special effects generating device (not shown) are completely separated. The above transfer operation is executed by the control section 2 decoding commands input from the keyboard 4, which is a command input section, and controlling each section.

In addition, the control unit 2 can rearrange a plurality of events in the memory 2 of the event memory 3, exchange events, copy events, delete, add, insert some events, etc. according to commands input from the keyboard 4. Edit. Also,
Of course, it is also possible to easily partially modify or change the contents of any event. Furthermore, by changing the input numbers for each event in one array with multiple events and another event array, two event arrays can be combined into one event array. etc. are also possible.

It is convenient because the events edited on the event memory 3 and the editing status can be monitored by the display device l. Further, the editing work is completed by writing the event edited in event memory 3''2 again to 7<pull memory cassette l-7. Of course, it is also possible to use a floppy disk instead of bubble memory as the control data transmission medium.Also, by directly connecting this device to the television special effects generator 9, television special effects can be generated by direct memory access. It is also possible to directly transfer events stored in the memory in the generator 9 to the event memory 3 and edit them. Furthermore, it is also possible to transfer event data using the /\ant-take method, in which data is transferred while checking whether the transfer speed is reduced or whether the data is being sent or received one word at a time. Further, data transfer may be performed using any transfer method such as parallel or serial. It is desirable to mark the edited event with a file name.

As described above, in the present invention, an event memory is provided for storing events created by a teleherssion effect generating device, and the arrangement order of a plurality of events stored in the event memory is determined by key operator-1.・Constructed so that it can be changed by cooling from! -, it has the effect of being able to perform more detailed editing than before by being separated from the special effect generator.
