An apparatus for recording a real time stream of digital information signals on a disc like record carrier has been proposed. The stream of information signals represent information arranged in a sequence of video frames, each video frame arranged in separate, consecutive data blocks comprised in separate, consecutive data packets. The apparatus comprises input means (1) for receiving the stream of digital signals, processing means (100) for processing the stream of digital information signals to obtain digital information signals and writing means (102) for writing the digital information signals into the units of recording on the disc like record carrier. The processing means (102) are adopted to detect the data blocks in the data packets and to allocate consecutive data blocks comprised in multiple data packets into consecutive logical units, a size of each logical unit corresponding to the predetermined size of the unit of recording. This apparatus is specifically suitable for recording digital video (DV).
An apparatus for recording a substantially real time stream of digital video on a record carrier, the stream of digital video is arranged in a sequence of video frames in separate, consecutive data blocks transmitted in data packets, the data blocks comprising headers, the record carrier having units of recording of a predetermined size larger than a size of the data packets, the apparatus comprising:
An apparatus for reproducing a substantially real time stream of digital video from a record carrier, the stream of digital video is arranged in a sequence of video frames in separate, consecutive data blocks, the record carrier having units of recording of a predetermined size, the apparatus comprising:
A method of using a recording device for storing a substantially real time stream of digital video on a record carrier, the stream of digital video is arranged in a sequence of video frames in separate, consecutive data blocks transmitted in data packets, the data blocks comprising headers, the record carrier having units of recording of a predetermined size larger than a size of the data packets, the method comprising acts of:
A tangible computer readable medium embodying non-transitory computer instructions operable to cause a computing device to perform a method of using a recording device for storing a substantially real time stream of digital video on a record carrier, the stream of digital video is arranged in a sequence of video frames in separate, consecutive data blocks transmitted in data packets, the data blocks comprising headers, the record carrier having units of recording of a predetermined size larger than a size of the data packets, the method comprising acts of:
