Abstract
A broadcasting processing apparatus and a control method thereof are provided. The apparatus includes a signal receiver which receives an image signal having image content; a user selection unit which selects movie content from the image content; a storage unit; and a controller which determines whether a received image signal is a film image signal if the movie content is selected through the user selection unit, and stores the image signal in the storage unit if the image signal corresponds to the film image signal.
Claims17
A broadcasting processing apparatus comprising:
- a storage unit;
- a controller which, when a movie content storing function is selected, determines whether an image signal received by the broadcasting processing apparatus is a film image signal, and which stores the image signal in the storage unit if the image signal is determined to be a film image signal;
- a decoder which decodes the image signal;
- and
- an interlaced-to-progressive converter (IPC) which detects field images from the decoded image signal,
- wherein the controller generates a motion change pattern based on field images detected during a first period of time, and determines that the image signal is a film image signal if the generated motion change pattern corresponds to a preset motion change pattern.
A broadcasting processing apparatus, comprising:
- a storage unit;
- a controller which, when a movie content storing function is selected, determines whether a frame rate of an image signal received by the broadcasting processing apparatus is identical to a preset frame rate, and which stores the image signal in the storage unit if the frame rate of the image signal is identical to the preset frame rate;
- a decoder which decodes the image signal;
- and
- an interlaced-to-progressive converter (IPC) which detects field images from the decoded image signal,
- wherein the controller determines the frame rate of the image signal based on a motion change pattern of the detected field images.
A control method of a broadcasting processing apparatus, the control method comprising:
- receiving a control signal to store movie content of an image signal received by the broadcasting processing apparatus;
- detecting field images by decoding the image signal;
- determining whether the image signal is a film image signal by using the detected field images;
- and
- storing the image signal if the image signal is determined to be a film image signal,
- wherein the determining whether the image signal is a film image signal comprises:
- generating a motion change pattern based on field images detected during a period of time;
- and
- determining whether the generated motion change pattern is a preset motion change pattern.
