VTR signal processing circuit

In a VTR (Video Tape Recorder) signal processing circuit comprising:

• a first frequency converter circuit for converting a first reproducing color under signal into a standard color signal;
• a delay circuit for delaying the first reproducing color under signal by one of one horizontal period and two horizontal periods in synchronism with a predetermined clock signal;
• a second frequency converter circuit for converting a second reproducing color under signal resulting from said delay circuit into a standard color signal;
• an oscillator circuit oscillating at a frequency 2n (n is a natural number) times a carrier frequency used in a frequency conversion of the reproducing color under signal into a frequency corresponding to a standard color signal;
• and
• a frequency divider circuit for dividing the oscillation frequency of said oscillator such that it becomes the carrier frequency and forming 4 carriers having phases 0 degree, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees respectively,
• said VTR signal producing circuit further comprising a frequency conversion portion for making the output signal of said first frequency converter circuit and the output signal of said second frequency converter circuit into one of in phase and inverted phase by selectively supplying the carriers having four phases output from said frequency divider circuit to said first frequency converter circuit and said second frequency converter circuit and for canceling color cross-talk between tracks by one of subtracting and adding the both signals, the improvement of said VTR signal processing circuit comprising a clock signal generator responsive to a horizontal sync signal separated from a reproduced luminance signal for generating a clock signal synchronized with the horizontal sync signal of said reproduced luminance signal, wherein a delaying operation of said delay circuit is performed by said clock signal, and wherein said clock signal generator circuit generates the clock signal used for the delaying operation of said delay circuit by controlling the oscillation frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator circuit by a result of phase comparison between a first signal generated by frequency dividing the oscillation signal of said voltage controlled oscillator circuit and the horizontal sync signal of said reproduced luminance signal.
