Abstract

Abstract Digital data consisting of different kinds of digital audio signals having sampling frequencies, numbers of quantization bits and the like that are different from those of the two-channel digital audio signals, display data, program data, and the like are recorded in the same signal format as that of the two-channel digital audio signals. A code signal representing either of the two-channel digital audio signals and the digital data is recorded and control data indicative of the linear velocity of the digital disc upon reproduction are inserted in every frame of the recording signal. One block of the digital data is formed by a predetermined amount of data and the same control data used for controlling the processing of the digital data is recorded at least twice in one block. The digital disc is rotated at a constant linear velocity on the basis of the control data upon reproduction. The reproduced audio data from the reproducing circuit is D/A converted, and the pass band of the low-pass filter to which the reproduced analog audio signals are supplied is adapted to the band of the reproduced analog audio signals.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 137 words
A method of arranging digital data including control data for subsequent recording in tracks on a rotating disc, comprising the steps of: arranging the data and control data into a block having a predetermined number of lines each line including a predetermined number of words; interleaving the data and control data using odd/even interleaving, where odd and even represent alternate successive lines; generating error correction words from the interleaved data and control data; and recording the interleaved data and control data and the error correction words on the disc in a line-by-line basis relative to said block, including the step of recording the control data twice in succession, whereby upon playback of said disc said data and control data is rearranged into said block, with said control data in two adjacent lines of said block being identical.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 137 words
A method of arranging digital data including control data for subsequent recording in tracks on a rotating disc, comprising the steps of: arranging the data and control data into a block having a predetermined number of lines each line including a predetermined number of words; interleaving the data and control data using odd/even interleaving, where odd and even represent alternate successive lines; generating error correction words from the interleaved data and control data; and recording the interleaved data and control data and the error correction words on the disc in a line-by-line basis relative to said block, including the step of recording the control data twice in succession, whereby upon playback of said disc said data and control data is rearranged into said block, with said control data in two adjacent lines of said block being identical.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 48 words
A method according to claim 1, further comprising the steps of setting a first two bits of a first line in said block to (0,0), a first two bits of a second line to (0,1), and a first bit of each remaining line in a block to (1).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
A method according to claim 1, further comprising the steps of dividing the control data into a mode control portion and an address portion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 40 words
A method according to claim 3, further comprising the step of using said error correction words to detect an error in said mode control portion and said address portion of each of said first and second lines of control data.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
A method according to claim 4, comprising the further step of selecting a correct mode control portion and a correct address portion using said error correction words.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 28 words
A method according to claim 1, in which said step of recording includes the further step of recording the interleaved data twice in succession on said rotating disc.
