A digital video tape recorder/playback apparatus has interpolation and crossfading circuits (154-157; 160, 161) and records audio and video signals in independent frames, the audio frames being offset with respect to the video frames and the even and odd samples being recorded near different edges (24, 25) of the tape (1), enabling burst errors near one edge to be recovered efficiently by interpolating the audio signal from the other edge. When audio dubbing is performed, the first and last dubbed frames contain the even samples of the new signal and the odd samples of the old signal, or vice versa, and audio-dubbing flags are recorded in these frames. When these frames are played back, the old and new signals are regenerated by interpolation and crossfaded to create a smooth transition between them. Although a four-channel audio signal is shown, the same apparatus can also be used to record a two-channel signal, by recording each sample twice. <IMAGE> |
