<p>When the low bit rate coding is effected in a recording system 1A, a signal is coded and recorded in a hierarchical structure. On the reproduction side, the type of a recorded signal (the low bit rate coded signal of the hierarchical structure, non-hierarchical structure, conventional analog recording or the like) is determined by a determination system 1E and the operation modes of a digital signal processing system 1G and an analog signal processing system 1F are set. The analog signal processing system processes a reproduced signal when it is analog signal. The digital signal processing system processes a reproduced signal when it is a digital signal or when a reproduced output from the analog signal processing system is processed in a digital manner. Further, hierarchical decoding means G30 and inverse converting means G40 are provided, a signal processed in the hierarchical structure can be restored to an original form, and the restored reproduced signal can be processed by use of system conversion means G60 and converted to a desired system and output. As a result, various types of input video signals can be recorded in a preset form and various forms of recorded video signals can be reproduced and output in a desired form. Further, an analog recorded signal can be reproduced and output after converted to a desired form. <IMAGE></p> |
