Edit seaming in a video data recording/reproducing apparatus

摘要

In recording one frame of video data in a plurality of tracks, high-frequency components of the video data are recorded in first and last ones of the plurality of tracks while low-frequency components thereof are recorded in the other tracks. In an editing/recording operation, a first frame of video data is recorded twice for first two consecutive frame periods after the start of the recording, and a last frame of video data is recorded twice for last two consecutive frame periods before the end of the recording. In a reproducing operation, one frame of video data is not used immediately before and after the start of the editing/recording operation and immediately before and after the end of the editing/recording operation.
