Abstract
A recording medium controller detects the type of the record format of a recording medium, and sends detection signals to a CPU. The CPU judges whether the record format is suitable for high-speed recording or not. In a case of a general-purpose record format, the CPU detects the presence or absence of existing data in the recording medium. When the existing data is present, whole existing data is stored from the recording medium into an evacuated data area of an internal memory. Upon completing the evacuation of existing data, the recording medium controller reformats the recording medium. Then, moving image data is recorded on the reformatted recording medium. Upon completing the record of whole moving image data, existing data is reconstructed in the recording medium.
Claims28
A moving image recording apparatus for recording moving image data on a recording medium, said moving image recording apparatus comprising:
- a judgment device for judging whether a record format of said recording medium is suitable for recording said moving image data;
- a recording medium controller for controlling operation of said recording medium, said recording medium controller reformatting said recording medium with a high-speed record format suitable for the record of said moving image data when said judgment device judges that said record format is unsuitable for recording said moving image data.
A method for recording moving image data on a recording medium, said method comprising the steps of:
- (a) detecting a record format of said recording medium;
- (b) judging whether said record format of said recording medium is suitable for recording said moving image data;
- and
- (c) reformatting said recording medium with a high-speed record format suitable for recording said moving image data when said record format is judged to be unsuitable for recording said moving image data.
An information processing device for recording moving image data on a recording medium, said information processor comprising:
- a judgment device for judging whether a record format of said recording medium is suitable for recording said moving image data;
- a recording medium controller for controlling operation of said recording medium, said recording medium controller reformatting said recording medium with a high-speed record format suitable for recording said moving image data when said judgment device judges that said record format is unsuitable for recording said moving image data.
