Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for automatically reserving a reservation of a VSI system. In the related art, a reservation recording setting using a screen interactive OSD program or various reservation recording functions using a timer function are known, but are automatically played back at a time required by a user. There was a limitation in using such a system because there was no function.

According to an aspect of the present invention, the system checks whether a microcomputer checks whether a timer is set for a user's timer play setting, and checks whether a tape is inserted if the play time is set. If there is, the present invention provides a reservation automatic playback processing method of a VSI system, which is performed by a reservation automatic playback processing program 100 including performing a tape playback operation at a reserved time.

Description

How to handle automatic reservation of VSI system

The present invention relates to a method for automatically reserving a reservation of a VSI system. In particular, when a user mounts a cassette on a VSI deck and sets a reservation playback time using a timer program, the tape is automatically played at a set time. The convenience of using such a device is to be obtained.

The VSI system is a device that receives various external video / audio sources to record and reproduce on a tape. The circuit block diagram of the VSI system is illustrated in FIG. 1.

Here, the microcomputer 31 for controlling the VSI system, the servo circuit 32 for driving control of a motor on the system deck side, the remote control unit 33a and the set side connected wirelessly to the remote control transmitter 33c. A timer circuit 33 to which the key portion 33b is connected, and an audio signal processing portion 35 for processing a reproduction or audio recording signal in the system are provided.

The system also includes a video signal processing unit 37 for providing a recording signal to the tape side or processing a reproduced video signal from the RF signal provided from the tuner and the eye unit 38, and at the time of double speed reproduction on the system deck side. The DMSS unit 36 controls the audio signal to be provided in a normal state, and decodes data such as characters and graphics, such as KB PS, to select characters, graphics, and functions of various information on the screen. OSD unit 34 for displaying a character display of a menu screen, etc., a tuner and IF unit 38 for synchronizing a signal received from an antenna and generating an intermediate frequency signal, and VSI for providing system power. A power supply circuit 39 and the like.

In the conventional circuit, the broadcast signal received by the tuner and the IFF unit 38 is modulated into a recorded signal through the OID signal processing unit 35, the video signal processing unit 37, and the like. Performs a recording operation or plays back a recorded signal recorded on a tape, and modulates the reproduced signal into a three channel or four channel frequency signal of a TV channel and provides the predetermined video program to a TV receiver connected by external audio / video jacks. I could watch.

Further, in such a conventional system, the scheduled recording setting operation is performed in a screen interactive manner using the remote control transmitter 33c and the OS unit 34, or the scheduled recording setting operation by a timer program is performed through the timer circuit 33. Could carry out.

When the above scheduled recording operation is set, the microcomputer 31 reaches the reserved recording time and drives the servo circuit 32 and the deck unit to perform the reserved recording operation for the set time.

However, in the conventional technology, in order to see a program of a recording tape that a user wants to see at a certain time and time while doing other work in a house, the user checks the time and reaches a predetermined time by inserting a tape and operating a key program. It was difficult to avoid the hassle of the work because it was to be watched.

An object of the present invention is to allow the user to mount the tape cassette on the VSI deck and to set the playback time using a timer program so as to improve the above problems, so that the tape playback can be automatically performed at the set time. It is intended to be convenient when using the device.

In particular, in order to realize the purpose of the above example, the system microcomputer checks whether the user has set a timer reservation play setting operation and checks whether there is a tape insertion if the reservation play time is set, and if there is a tape insertion, It is a feature of the reservation automatic playback processing method in a VSI system performed by a reservation automatic playback processing program including performing a tape playback operation at a time.

Hereinafter, more specific features of the present invention will be understood by describing the same in detail with the accompanying drawings.

That is, FIG. 2 is a side view of a Vial set related to a reservation automatic regeneration processing method in a Vial system.

In this case, a half-mounted tape cassette 1 is provided at the inlet of the tape cassette 1 of the ordinary V2 set 2.

The tape cassette 1 is inserted into the same position as the extraction mode which is operated when the conventional VSI system extracts the tape from the inlet of the VSI set 2, and the rear of the tape cassette 1 in this extraction mode. The wall is provided with a charging means 3 which allows the sensor to perform a loading operation by pulling the tape cassette 1 slightly toward the cassette holder when the reservation time is made by the microcomputer 31.

3 shows a reservation automatic playback processing program 100 associated with FIG.

In this case, the system microcomputer 31 checks whether the user's timer play setting is performed, and checks whether there is a tape insert if the play time is set, and if the tape is inserted, performs the tape play at the scheduled time. It includes the steps.

That is, the system microcomputer 31 checks in the internal memory whether there is a timer reserved playback setting operation by the user (step 101), and checks whether a tape is inserted if there is a setting operation (step 102).

Thereafter, the microcomputer 31 compares the timer reservation time data with the current time data and checks whether it matches (step 103), and when the time coincides with the current time, loads the tape cassette 1 as shown in FIG. The operation is performed (step 104).

Thereafter, the process proceeds to a regeneration mode in a normal operation and performs a series of processes (step 105).

According to the present invention, the microcomputer 33 recognizes this when the user presses the timer reservation play key through the remote control transmitter 33c as shown in FIG. 1, and then enters the user's timer reservation play time using the ten key. Press the play key again to end timer reservation play.

In this state, the VSI set checks the reserved reproduction time data set by the user from time to time by watching the broadcast program or without the set operation.

If the microcomputer 31 drives the deck unit through the servo circuit 32 when the reservation automatic regeneration time of the user setting coincides with the above operation, and the loading operation is performed, the cassette tape 1 of FIG. 2 is loaded. When the means 3 picks up the tape cassette 1 back to the cassette holder side by a predetermined length, the tape car seat 1 is automatically loaded into the deck of the VSI set 2, and then the tape regeneration operation is performed.

In addition, this operation is performed by the microcomputer 31 together with FIG. 3 and the reserved automatic playback processing program 100, which checks in the internal memory whether the system microcomputer 31 has a timer reserved playback setting operation by the user. If there is a setting operation, it is checked whether a tape is inserted (steps 101 and 102).

Thereafter, the microcomputer 31 compares the timer reservation time data with the current time data and checks whether it matches, and when the time coincides with the current time, it loads the tape cassette 1 in the state shown in FIG. After that, the user enters the playback mode in a normal operation to perform the playback operation (steps 103 to 105).

The present invention enables a user to automatically perform a reproducing operation of a VSI system at a reservation time set by a user, and thus, when the user does another set operation or does not perform a set operation, or at a time reserved by the user while watching a broadcast program. The program of the tape can be viewed automatically without any manual operation, so the convenience of using the device can be obtained.
