Magnetic recording and reproducing device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To make it possible to discriminate easily a program by recording time information at the head of the program recorded on a magnetic tape. CONSTITUTION: Time information, generated by timer circuit 1, is adequately selected by information selection switch 2 and then stored in memory part 3. Next, parallel-series converter 6 converts the content of memory part 3 into serial codes, which are recorded on magnetic tape 4 by recording head 13 through switch 12 in response to a recording signal muting button or muting pause button. Namely, individual time information can be recorded at the head of each program. Therefore, the time information is read out at the time of the retrieval of the program on the magnetic tape, so that the contents of the program can easily be discriminated. In addition to time information, program number information, for example, can also be recorded. COPYRIGHT: (C)1980,JPO&Japio
