Image signal with pilot signal recording apparatus

An image signal recording apparatus for recording, on a disc-shaped recording medium having a plurality of concentrically formed tracks, one picture amount of an image signal composed of four-field image signals different from each other, comprising:

• a) pilot signal generating means for generating a pilot signal for correcting time base variations, which is different from a horizontal synchronizing signal;
• b) modulated carrier signal generating means for generating a modulated carrier signal modulated with an information signal other than an image signal;
• and
• c) recording means, arranged to input the four-field image signals, for recording the four-field image signals in four tracks of the plurality of tracks formed on the disc-shaped recording medium respectively, said recording means recording the modulated carrier signal generated by said modulated carrier signal generating means in two central tracks of said four tracks in a state of being multiplexed with the field image signals and recording the pilot signal generated by said pilot signal generating means in two side tracks of said four tracks in a state of being multiplexed with the field image signals.
