Image signal reproducing apparatus
First Claim
1. An image signal reproducing apparatus for reproducing an image signal from a recording medium on which the image signal and an index signal indicating a desired position on the recording medium have been recorded, comprising:
- (A) reproducing means for reproducing the image signal from said recording medium on which said image signal has been recorded;
(B) extracting means for detecting the index signal recorded on said recording medium and for extracting a representative image signal of one image plane corresponding to the detected index signal from the image signal reproduced by said reproducing means;
(C) position information signal generating means for generating a position information signal corresponding to a position on said recording medium where the representative image signal extracted by said extracting means has been recorded; and
(D) output means for outputting the representative image signal extracted by said extracting means and the position information signal generated by said position information signal generating means.

Abstract
An image signal reproducing apparatus for reproducing image signals from a record bearing medium on which image signals consisting of a plurality of groups of image planes are recorded is arranged to reproduce the image signals recorded on the record bearing medium; to extract, from among the reproduced image signals, representing image signals corresponding to representing image planes; to form position information signals indicative of the recorded positions on the record bearing medium of the representing image signals; and to produce the representing image signal together with the position information signals which respectively correspond to the representing image signals. The arrangement of the apparatus disclosed enables the operator to readily know the contents of the image signals recorded on the record bearing medium.

6. An image signal reproducing apparatus for reproducing an image signal from a recording medium on which a plurality of kinds of image signals corresponding to different scenes, respectively, have been recorded, comprising:
-
(A) reproducing means for reproducing the image signal from the recording medium on which the image signal has been recorded; (B) extracting means arranged to monitor the image signal reproduced by said reproducing means, to detect change-over of the scene represented by the reproduced image signal and to extract a representative image signal of one image plane from the image signals reproduced by said reproducing means after the change-over of said scene; (C) position information signal generating means for generating a position information signal corresponding to a position of said recording medium on which the representative image signal extracted by said extracting means is recorded; and (D) output means for outputting the representative image signal extracted by said extracting means and the position information signal generated by said position information signal generating means. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. An image signal reproducing method for reproducing an image signal from a recording medium on which the image signal and an index signal for indicating a desired position on the recording medium have been recorded, comprising:
-
(A) a first step of relatively moving a reproducing head and the recording medium at a first speed higher than a recording speed at which the recording has been effected, to reproduce the image signal recorded on the recording medium and to detect the index signal recorded on said recording medium; (B) a second step of relatively moving the reproducing head and the recording medium at a second speed, which is equal to the recording speed, after the index signal has been detected in said first step, to reproduce the image signal recorded on the recording medium; (C) a third step of extracting a representative image signal from among the image signals reproduced in said second step; (D) a fourth step of generating a position information signal corresponding to a position of the recording medium on which the extracted representative image signal is recorded, after the representative image signal has been extracted in said third step; and (E) a fifth step of relatively moving the reproducing head and the recording medium at said first speed again, after the representative image signal has been extracted in said third step, to reproduce the image signal recorded on the recording medium. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)

15. An image signal reproducing method for reproducing an image signal from a recording medium on which a plurality of kinds of image signals corresponding to different scenes, respectively, have been recorded, comprising:
-
(A) a first step of relatively moving a reproducing head and the recording medium at a first speed higher than a recording speed at which the recording has been effected, reproducing the image signal recorded on the recording medium, monitoring the image signal reproduced from said recording medium and then detecting change-over of scenes represented by the reproduced image signal; (B) a second step of relatively moving the reproducing head and the recording medium at a second speed which is equal to the recording speed, after the change-over of the scenes represented by the reproduced image signals has been detected in said first step and reproducing the image signal recorded on the recording medium; (C) a third step of extracting a representative image signal from among the image signals reproduced in said second step; (D) a fourth step of generating a position information signal corresponding to a position on the recording medium on which the extracted representation image signal after the representative image signal has been extracted in said third step and outputting said representative image signal and said position information signal; and (E) a fifth step of relatively moving the reproducing head and the recording medium at a speed which is equal to said second speed, again and reproducing the image signal recorded on the recording medium. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
