DATA PROCESSING METHOD, DATA PROCESSOR, AND PROGRAM RECORDED MEDIUM

摘要

When inputting moving image data into a personal computer for display or for recording on a recording medium, there often occur cases where processing cannot catch up with the input, resulting in interruption of the processing. Also, when performing conversion from an input digital signal having an arbitrary number of samples to an output digital signal having an arbitrary number of samples, prior art methods entail the possibility that the memory capacity and the amount of computation may become enormous. In view of this, according to the present invention, if the image processing cannot catch up with the input, the data is re-input for processing by utilizing information concerning the recorded position, the recorded time, or the time at which playback is to be performed; this achieves the same effect as processing continuous moving image data without interruption.
