Video tape recorder capable of recording and reproducing wide-band chrominance signal.

摘要

In a video tape recorder of the color under recording type, in which a low frequency band converted carrier chrominance signal is recorded together with an FM luminance signal, another FM modulator is provided for modulating a wide band chrominance signal. An additional head records the FM chrominance signal on at least a part of a track on which video signal has been recorded in the color under recording. In reproduction, it is checked whether the FM chrominance signal is reproduced or not for selecting the FM chrominance signal or the color under recorded carrier chrominance signal as a reproduced chrominance signal output. <IMAGE>
