Abstract
The information recording/reproducing apparatus of the present invention comprises: a reproduction period list reader for reading out a reproduction period list from a recording medium; a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from the recording medium over a prescribed time; and a reproduction period list modifier that deletes a skip period from a reproduction period in a reproduction period list using a skip start point and a skip end point in the reproduction period list that is read out by the reproduction period list reader when specific-time skip is carried out by the specific-time skipping device during reproduction of the information from the recording medium.
Claims22
An information recording/reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- a reproduction period list reader for reading out a reproduction period list from a recording medium;
- a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from said recording medium over a prescribed time;
- and
- a reproduction period list modifier that deletes a skip period from a reproduction period in said reproduction period list using a skip start point and a skip end point in said reproduction period list that is read out by said reproduction period list reader when specific-time skip is carried out by said specific-time skipping device during reproduction of information from said recording medium.
An information recording/reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from a recording medium over a prescribed time;
- and
- a recorded information editor for deleting recorded information that corresponds to a skip period from said recording medium using a skip start point and a skip end point when specific-time skip is carried out during reproduction of information.
An information recording/reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- an information recording/reproducing device for recording and reproducing information to/from a recording medium;
- and
- a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from said recording medium over a prescribed time, wherein
- when said specific-time skip is carried out during reproduction of information and said specific-time skip is carried out again within a prescribed time, said specific-time skipping device sets second specific-time skip amount as same as first specific-time skip amount when directions of said first skip and said second skip are in a same direction, and sets said second specific-time skip amount less than said first specific-time skip amount when directions of said first skip and said second skip are in reverse directions.
An information recording/reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- an information recording/reproducing device for recording and reproducing information to/from a recording medium;
- and
- a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from said recording medium over a prescribed time, wherein
- when said specific-time skip is carried out during reproduction of information and said specific-time skip is carried out again within a prescribed time, said specific-time skipping device performs specific-time skip having second specific-time skip start point as a first specific-time skip end point when directions of said first skip and said second skip are in a same direction, and skips to a specific point between first specific-time skip start point and said first specific-time skip end point when directions of said first skip and said second skip are in reverse directions.
An information recording/reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- a scene-change detector for detecting a scene-change point when recording video information to a recording medium;
- a marking device for marking said scene-change point detected by said scene-change detector;
- a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from said recording medium over a prescribed time when reproducing information;
- and
- a marking searcher for searching said marked point when reproducing information, wherein
- during specific-time skip, said specific-time skipping device skips to a point that is specific-time later from a currently reproduced part when said marking searcher does not find a marked point closest to a point that is specific-time later from said currently reproduced part and, when said marking searcher finds said marked point closest to said point that is specific-time later from said currently reproduced part, said specific-time skipping device skips to said marked point.
An information recording/reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- a scene-change detector for detecting a scene-change point when recording video information to a recording medium;
- a marking device for marking said scene-change point detected by said scene-change detector;
- a specific-time skipping device that skips a reading-out position of information from said recording medium over a prescribed specific time when reproducing information;
- and
- a marking searcher for searching said marked point when reproducing information, wherein
- during specific-time skip, said specific-time skipping device skips to a point that is specific-time later from a currently reproduced part when said marking searcher does not find a marked point within a prescribed time of a point that is specific-time later from said currently reproduced part and, when said marking searcher finds said marked point within said prescribed time of said point that is specific-time later from said currently reproduced part, said specific-time skipping device skips to said marked point that is closest to said point that is specific-time later from said currently reproduced part.
