Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [Purpose] The present invention automatically stores information such as the date / time / channel at the start of recording and the time at the end of recording, and displays the information as freely callable. so,
The purpose is to easily confirm the recorded contents without reproducing the recorded tape, and further to improve the usability of the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus. [Structure] According to the structure of the present invention, the date / time / channel at the start of recording and the time at the end of recording are automatically stored in the memory 3. After the recording is completed, the input key 1 is operated to call up the information stored in the memory 3 and display it on the television receiver 7. When a plurality of programs are recorded, the date / time / channel are displayed sequentially.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of displaying recording information of a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the conventional apparatus, when the reserved recording setting of the program is set, the setting contents of the date, time and channel are automatically erased after the recording is executed.

A program reservation control system of the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus is known as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-113950.

[0004]

In the prior art, when the reserved recording setting of the program is performed, the reserved setting contents such as date, time and channel are automatically erased after the recording is executed.
In order to see what was scheduled for recording at a later date, it was necessary to make a note or play the recorded tape. Further, even when the recording is manually performed, it is similarly difficult to confirm the recorded content.

According to the present invention, information such as a date / time / channel at the start of recording and a time at the end of recording is automatically stored in the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus main body, and the information can be arbitrarily called and displayed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus suitable for creating a video tape library, for the purpose of easily confirming the recorded date / time / channel without reproducing the recorded tape.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention automatically stores the date / time / channel at the start of recording and the time at the end of the recording so that it can be called up and displayed. .

Further, this is achieved by configuring a system with a storage device and a display device in order to store, call up and display the recorded contents.

[0008]

In the magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus, the date / time / channel at the start of recording is stored. Further, the time at the end of recording is also stored. The information is operated so as to be arbitrarily called and displayed. As a result, the recorded date / time / channel can be easily confirmed without reproducing the recorded tape, and a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus that is easier to use can be provided.

In order to identify the video cassette tape used, the video cassette tape No. It is also possible to store.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a block system diagram.

Date / time / channel / video cassette tape No. of the program to be reserved for recording. And the like are input using the input key 1. The contents are input to the microcomputer 2 to put the recording / playback unit 6 in a recording standby state. At the recording start time, the microcomputer 2 causes the tuner 4 to receive the set program, instructs the recording / playback unit 6 to start recording, and starts recording. Date / time / channel / video cassette tape No. when recording started Information such as is input from the microcomputer 2 to the memory 3 and stored therein.

At the recording end time, the microcomputer 2 instructs the tuner 4 and the recording / playback unit 6 to end the recording, and ends the recording. The time is input and stored in the memory 3. When a plurality of programs are reserved, they are recorded sequentially according to the above procedure, and the date / time / channel / video cassette tape No. Is stored in the memory 3.

When recording a program manually, the input key 1 is operated to enter the recording mode. The microcomputer 2 causes the tuner 4 to receive the program and record / record it.
The playback unit 6 is instructed to record, and the recording start date / time / channel / video cassette tape No. Memorize When the recording stop is input by the input key 1 or when the tape is finished during the recording, the microcomputer 2 instructs the tuner 4 and the recording / playback unit 6 to stop the recording, and causes the memory 3 to store the time. .

On the other hand, the recording date / time / channel / video cassette tape No. Information such as is called from the memory 3 by operating the input key 1, and the character display circuit 5
And is displayed as characters on the screen of the television receiver 7. When a plurality of programs are recorded, the information is sequentially displayed. FIG. 2 shows an example thereof. This makes it easy to check the recorded contents without playing the recorded tape.

[0015]

According to the present invention, since the recorded contents can be easily confirmed without reproducing the recorded tape, it is possible to provide a magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus suitable for creating a video library.
