Information recording medium, motion-picture voice recording/reproducing apparatus, and motion-picture voice recording/reproducing method
First Claim
1. An information recording medium having motion-picture and voice signals recorded as compressed motion-picture voice data thereto after an encoding compression processing, wherein recording position information of said compressed motion-picture voice data corresponding to an outline image representing the outline of said motion-picture and said voice signal is recorded, said recording position information represents also non-set information representing that said outline image is not set by a user or by a system, and said recording position information is arranged so as to be readable in correspondence to reproduction of said motion-picture and said voice signals at every predetermined unit thereof.

Abstract
A recording medium having a data management structure capable of efficiently determining whether or not an outline image representing the outline of an original image and character information representing additional contents are added, and an motion-picture voice recording/reproducing apparatus for improving a retrieving operation factor of the recorded original image by generating and outputting the outline image from the original image even when the outline image is not added. Recording position information of images representing an outline of motion-picture and a voice signal, recording position information of character information representing additional contents relating to the motion-picture and voice signals, and/or information representing that the images representing the outline or the character information is not set by a user or by a system, are recorded to, and reproduced from, the recording medium.

3. An motion-picture voice recording/reproducing apparatus for recording motion-picture and voice signals on an information recording medium by executing an encoding compression processing for said motion-picture and said voice signals and recording thereon, and for reproducing said motion-picture and said voice signals read out from said information recording medium by executing an extension process of compressed motion-picture voice data, comprising:
-
means for generating an outline image by looking up recording position information of said compressed motion-picture voice data corresponding to said outline image representing an outline of said motion-picture and said voice signals; and
control means for determining whether or not said recording position information is a value that cannot be used as said recording position information, and causing said outline image generation means to generate said outline image by regarding information of a recording leading position of a predetermined unit of said compressed motion-picture voice data as the recording position information of said compressed motion-picture voice data corresponding to the outline image to be generated when said value is determined as the value that cannot be used as said recording position information. - View Dependent Claims (4)

5. A motion-picture voice recording and reproducing method for recording motion-picture and voice signals on an information recording medium by conducting an encoding compression processing for said motion-picture and said voice signals, and generating and reproducing an outline image representing an outline of said motion-picture and said voice signals from said compressed motion-picture voice data read out from said information recording medium, comprising the steps of:
-
setting, at a time of recording, a value, that cannot be used as said recording position information, as recording position information of said compressed motion-picture voice data corresponding to an outline image representing the outline of said motion-picture and said voice signal when a user does not designate the outline image; and
determining, at a time of reproduction, whether or not the recording position information of said compressed motion-picture voice data corresponding to said outline image is a value that cannot be used as said recording position information, and reading out said compressed motion-picture voice data at the recording leading position of a predetermined unit of said compressed motion-picture voice data and generating an outline image from said compressed motion-picture voice data read out when said recording position information has a value that cannot be used as said recording position information. - View Dependent Claims (6)

- 7. An information recording medium for recording motion-picture and voice signals after an encoding compression processing, wherein recording position information of character information representing additional contents relating to said motion-picture and said voice signals is recorded as character information recording position information to said information recording medium, said character information recording position information functions also as non-set information representing that said character information is not set by a user or by a system, and said character information recording position information are arranged so as to be readable in correspondence to reproduction of said motion-picture and said voice signals at every predetermined unit thereof.

9. An motion-picture voice recording/reproducing apparatus for recording motion-picture and voice signals on an information recording medium by conducting an encoding compression processing of said motion-picture and said voice signals, and reproducing said motion-picture and said voice signals by conducting an extension processing for the compressed motion-picture voice data read out from said information recording medium, comprising:
-
character information generation means for reading out and generating said character information by looking up character information recording position information as recording position information of character information representing additional contents relating to said motion-picture and said voice signals; and
control means for determining whether or not said character information recording position information is a value that can be used as recording position information, and executing control in such a fashion as not to look for nor to read out said character information when said character information recording position information is determined to be the value that cannot be used as said recording position information.

10. A motion-picture and voice recording and reproducing method for recording motion-picture and voice signals on an information recording medium by conducting an encoding compression processing for said motion-picture and said voice signals, and generating and reproducing character information representing additional contents relating to said motion-picture and said voice signals from the compressed motion-picture voice data read out from said information recording medium, comprising the steps of:
-
setting, at a time of recording, a value that cannot be used as character information recording position information, as recording position information of character information representing additional contents relating to said motion-picture and said voice signals, when a user dos not designate the character information; and
determining, at a time of reproduction, whether or not said character information recording position information is a value that cannot be used as said character information recording position information, and controlling reproduction so as not to look for nor to read said character information when it is determined that said character information recording position information is the value that cannot be used as said character information recording position information.
