Abstract
A television set include a DVD-IC 20 for outputting a composite signal a containing subtitle information and closed caption information, a TV-IC 10 for outputting an OSD signal b based on the closed caption information identified in the composite signal a, and a serial bus connecting the DVD-IC 20 and the TV-IC 10. The DVD-IC 20 informs the TV-IC 10 of the setting status of subtitle display based on the subtitle information in a DVD player. The TV-IC 10, if the setting of subtitle display based on the subtitle information in the DVD player is ON, turns OFF the setting of subtitle display based on the closed caption information in the television receiver, thereby prohibiting an OSD signal b from being outputted.

An information recording apparatus comprising:
- a tuner that receives a digital broadcasting signal in which a data signal, video signal, and an audio signal are multiplexed;
- a signal extracting unit that extracts the data signal, video signal, and an audio signal from the digital broadcasting signal;
- a signal processing unit that converts the video signal and the audio signal extracted by the signal extracting unit into a conventional video format;
- a selecting unit that selects desired information from among the information included in the data signal extracted by the signal extracting unit;
- is a recording unit that compresses the video signal and the audio signal into compressed data with MPEG format and records the compressed data together with the information selected by the selecting unit.
An information recording apparatus comprising:
- a tuner that receives a digital broadcasting signal in which a data signal, video signal, and an audio signal are multiplexed;
- a signal extracting unit that extracts the data signal, video signal, and an audio signal from the digital broadcasting signal;
- and
- a recording unit that compresses the video signal and the audio signal into compressed data with a predetermined compression format and records the compressed data together with the data signal onto a recording medium.
An information recording apparatus comprising:
- a signal processing unit for converting received digital broadcasting signals into analog video and audio signals and converting the analog video and audio signals thus converted into digital video and audio signals again;
- and
- a recording unit for recording said video and audio signals converted into the digital signals in a manner compressed in a MPEG format on a recording medium,
- wherein said signal processing unit supplies, to said recording unit, a digital data signal related to electric program guide information, text or letter information by teletext broadcasting, information indicative of program contents, etc. separated from the received digital broadcasting signals, and said recording unit records the inputted digital data signal as well as said video and audio signals converted into the digital signals in the manner compressed in the MPEG format on said recording medium,
- wherein the information recording apparatus further comprises a selecting unit for selecting desired information from among the information of the digital data signal separated by the signal processing unit,
- wherein if only any optional information is selected from the information of the digital data signal by said selecting unit, said recording unit records only the digital data signal of the selected information as well as the video and audio signals in the manner compressed in the MPEG format on the recording medium.
An information recording apparatus comprising:
- a signal processing unit for once converting received digital broadcasting signals into analog video and audio signals and converting the analog video signal and audio signals thus converted into digital video and audio signals again;
- and
- a recording unit for recording said video and audio signals converted into the digital signals in a manner compressed in a predetermined format on a recording medium,
- wherein said signal processing unit supplies, to said recording unit, a digital data signal separated from received digital broadcasting signals, and said recording unit records the inputted digital data signal as well as said video and audio signals converted into the digital signals in the manner compressed in the predetermined format on said recording medium.
