Abstract
In a composite audio-video apparatus, when a user operates a remote controller and sends a DVD reproducing command, a remote control receiving section receives the DVD reproducing command and outputs it into a VCR control section and DVD control section. The DVD control section controls a DVD reproduce section to reproduce a DVD, and the DVD control section sends a direction signal to the VCR control section. When the VCR control section receives the direction signal, the VCR control section sends an image changeover signal to an image output section, and the image output section is set its image inputting source to the DVD reproduce section. The image reproduced by the DVD reproduce section is outputted to a television set via the image output section.
Claims4
A composite audio-video apparatus comprising:
- first and second image reproduce sections for reproducing images respectively recorded in different mediums;
- first and second control sections for respectively controlling the first and the second image reproduce section;
- an operation command informing section, including a remote operating section, for informing the first and the second control section of an inputted operation command;
- and
- an image output section for selectively outputting an image reproduced by the first or the second image reproduce section;
- wherein the first control section includes a changeover control section for controlling to change over an image input source of the image output section;
- the second control section outputs a direction signal to the first control section only when the operating command inputted from the operation command informing section is a specific operation command which has been previously set for the second image reproduce section;
- and
- the first control section changes over the image output section so that an image reproduced by the second image reproduce section is outputted in the case where the first control section receives the direction signal even when the image output section is set to output an image reproduced by the first image reproduce section, and the first control section changes over the image output section so that the image reproduced by the first image reproduce section is outputted in the case where the operation command inputted from the operation command informing section is a specific operation command which has been previously set for the first image reproduce section.
