Method of coordinately processing pieces of copy information and information recording/reproducing apparatus
First Claim
1. An information recording/reproducing apparatus for recording and playback video information, wherein said video information is adapted to an information processing data format that is defined to include (1) video packs of which data is configured by a packet header containing scrambling control information and compressed video data, (2) audio packs of which data is audio information, (3) unit control information (RDI) packs as managing information including copy control information, (4) a video object unit including one unit control information (RDI) pack at the head and including the video packs and audio packs continuing to the unit control information pack, (5) and video object (VOB) including one or more of the video object unit (VOBU), the apparatus comprising:
- an encoder including a video encoder, an audio encoder and a formatter, which assembles the video packs, the audio packs and the video object unit;
a controller including a RDI processing section and a packet header processing section, which coordinates content of the copy control information in the video object unit, by detecting a copy control information from the input source, where the RDI processing section changes the content of the copy control information in the RDI pack to the corresponding content with the detected copy control information, and the packet header processing section changes the content of scrambling control information in the headers in the video packs belonging to the video object unit to the corresponding content with the detected copy control information.

Abstract
The copy-related information of an input video signal is detected and the copy control information of RDI located at the head of each video object unit and the scrambling control information described in the packet header of the video packets in the video object unit to which the RDI belongs are rewritten so as to coordinate the contents of the copy-related information, those of the copy control information and those of the scrambling control information.

6. An information recording/reproducing method for recording and playback video information, wherein said video information is adapted to an information processing data format than is defined to include (1) video packs of which data is configured by a packet header containing scrambling control information and compressed video data, (2) audio packs of which data is audio information. (3) unit control information (RDI) packs us managing information including copy control information, (4) a video object unit including one unit control information (RDI) pack at the head and including the video packs and audio packs continuing to the unit control information pack, (5) and video object (VOB) including one or more of the video object unit (VOBU), the method comprising:
-
assembling the video packs, the audio packs and the video object unit by a video encoder, an audio encoder and a formatter; coordinating content of the copy control information in the video object unit, by detecting a copy control information from the input source, where the RDI processing section changes the content of the copy control information in the RDI pack to the corresponding content with the detected copy control information, and the packet header processing section changes the content of scrambling control information in the headers in the video packs belonging to the video object unit to the corresponding content with the detected copy control information. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
