<p>A magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus which is designed to record and reproduce an image signal on and from a magnetic tape (1) in an amount that corresponds to a predetermined unit of image in each read or write cycle has a video head (2, 3) for reproducing the image signal from the magnetic tape; a video head position detector (5, 6, 7) for detecting the position of the video head; a reference circuit (11) for obtaining a signal defining a reference used to determine the phase of the video head; a memory element (15) sufficient to store the image signal obtained from the video head in an amount corresponding to the predetermined unit of image; a means for storing the image signal for the predetermined unit of image in the memory element; and a controller (12) for controlling the operation of reading and writing the image signal from and into the memory element. In synchronization of the reproduction of an image, when the signal output from the memory element is not used, the controller is synchronized with the video head position detector, whereas, when the signal output from the memory element is used, the controller is activated so as to operate at the same period as that of the reference circuit, thereby obtaining a steady image even during the intermittent drive of the magnetic tape.</p> |
