IMAGE INFORMATION RECORDING APPARATUS AND IMAGE INFORMATION REGENERATING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image information recording apparatus and an image information reproducing apparatus which can cope with special reproduction and editings required for VTR. SOLUTION: An inputted television signal of n fields (or n frames) is subjected to compression coding as a recording unit block by a high efficiency encoder 110. The television signal of n fields (or n frames), which is subjected to the compression coding, is divided into a recording area of m tracks which are calculated from the amount of information to be recorded and the recording capacity of one track, and recorded. The reproduced signal of m tracks is decoded to the television signal of n fields (or n frames) by a high efficiency decoder 111.
