Patent application number | Description | Published |
20110038595 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM - A communication apparatus includes a communication unit that communicates with an external apparatus via communication lines conforming to HDMI standard, a first detection unit that determines whether a first signal is detected indicating that the communication unit and the external apparatus are connected, a second detection unit that determines whether a second signal is detected indicating that the external apparatus is in a state where the external apparatus displays video data transmitted from the communication unit, and a control unit that controls the communication unit to transmit the video data to the external apparatus if the first signal and the second signal are detected. | 02-17-2011 |
20110047586 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM - A communication apparatus includes a communication unit, an acquisition unit, and a control unit. The control unit controls the acquisition unit to acquire again information for generating video data to be transmitted to an external apparatus by the communication unit from an apparatus if the predetermined signal is detected, the predetermined signal indicates that a state of the apparatus is changed to a first state from a second state after the state of the apparatus is changed to the second state from the first state. | 02-24-2011 |
20110176017 | DATA RECORDING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A data recording apparatus records data onto a recording medium having a flash memory in which data can be written in block units using a part of a recording region as an alternative block for a defect block in which normal data writing cannot be performed. The data recording apparatus causes a user to select one of plural recording modes including a first recording mode and a second recording mode in which an amount of data to be processed is larger than that of the first recording mode, then obtains data in the selected recording mode and stores the data onto the recording medium. If an alternative block remaining amount obtained from the recording medium is equal to or less than a threshold value, the data recording apparatus allows recording in the first recording mode and inhibits recording in the second recording mode. | 07-21-2011 |
20110187894 | RECORDING APPARATUS AND METHOD - A recording apparatus records data in a recording medium which has a plurality of blocks and includes an alternative block for a defect block, in accordance with a recording unit of a set data amount. The recording apparatus sets the data amount of the recording unit based on an alternative block remaining amount in the recording medium. | 08-04-2011 |
20110246841 | STORING APPARATUS - A storing apparatus, equipped with a control unit configured to control the writing of data into a memory and to communicate a notice to an external device with a communication unit if the remaining amount of substitute blocks becomes equal to or less than a threshold value specified by stored threshold value information, includes the control unit configured to change the threshold value information, used for the notice communicated by the control unit, by the use of threshold value information received from the external device with the communication unit. | 10-06-2011 |
20130057662 | DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - When a user views a three-dimensional video on an external apparatus, the user cannot always simultaneously view the three-dimensional video on another video display apparatus, because of the difference between the display methods used by these apparatuses, for example. In such case, when a three-dimensional video signal is output to the external apparatus, a display unit of the video display apparatus displays a two-dimensional video. In this way, even when the external apparatus is displaying a three-dimensional video, a user can simultaneously view the display unit of the video display apparatus easily. | 03-07-2013 |
20130104183 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - An electronic apparatus includes a first communication unit that includes a first connector, a second communication unit that includes a second connector, and a control unit that controls not to set the second communication unit to one of a first mode and a second mode based on a predetermined device connected to the first connector, wherein the first mode is used for transmitting video data, and the second mode is different from the first mode. | 04-25-2013 |
20140270694 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM - A communication apparatus includes a communication unit that communicates with an external apparatus via communication lines conforming to HDMI standard, a first detection unit that determines whether a first signal is detected indicating that the communication unit and the external apparatus are connected, a second detection unit that determines whether a second signal is detected indicating that the external apparatus is in a state where the external apparatus displays video data transmitted from the communication unit, and a control unit that controls the communication unit to transmit the video data to the external apparatus if the first signal and the second signal are detected. | 09-18-2014 |
