20090263105 | TRANSPORT STREAM GENERATING APPARATUS, RECORDING APPARATUS HAVING THE SAME, AND TRANSPORT STREAM GENERATING METHOD - The present invention provides a recording apparatus that generates a transport stream so that a boundary between recording units (aligned units) and a file division point (i.e., a boundary between GOPs) always coincide with each other without obtaining information on the file size or the like. When generating a transport stream by time-division multiplexing transport packets, n or more transport packets (e.g., null packets N) other than a video packet are inserted between a video packet group generated from a single encoding unit (GOP) and a video packet group subsequent to the video packet group. When d indicates the data length of the transport packet, h indicates the data length of a fixed-length header added to each of the transport packets before being recorded on a data recording medium, and L indicates a recording unit length to the data recording medium, | 10-22-2009 |

20100119214 | VIDEO RECORDING APPARATUS, MULTIPLEXING METHOD, PICTURE ENCODING METHOD, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM FOR VARIABLE FRAME-RATE RECORDING - A video recording apparatus provides a slow motion effect or a quick motion effect by digitally converting the frame-rate instead of by changing the playback speed of the film, and using few recording media without requiring any special device at playing. A picture encoding part encodes only valid frames by changing a rate-controlling method so that a predetermined playing frame-rate is obtained at a standard data-rate at playing. And a TS multiplexing part multiplexes by converting a frequency of a standard STC clock by only a ratio of valid frame-rate and playing frame-rate, and generating values for PCR, PTS, and DTS. | 05-13-2010 |
