Abstract
Abstract An information signal recording disc is recorded with a stereoscopic television signal comprising a stereoscopic video signal and audio signals. The disc comprises a spiral track made up of a plurality of track turns, and video signals related to four fields are recorded on each of the plurality of track turns. Each track turn is time-sequentially recorded with right-eye and left-eye video signals of mutually different field numbers out of the right-eye and left-eye video signals of a simultaneous stereoscopic television signal in a sequence of field numbers together with audio signals, so that the right-eye video signal and the left-eye video signal are respectively recorded for a time period of two fields in each track turn. The right-eye and left-eye video signals related to identical fields are recorded side by side to each other in two mutually adjacent track turns. A predetermined sequence with which the right-eye and left-eye video signals are recorded on the spiral track is repeated with a period of eight fields.

Claim 2
Dependent Claim
173 words
An information signal recording disc recorded with a stereoscopic television signal, said stereoscopic television signal comprising a stereoscopic video signal and audio signals, said information signal recording disc comprising: a spiral track comprising a plurality of track turns; and video signals related to four fields recorded on each of said plurality of track turns, each of said plurality of track turns comprising right-eye and left-eye video signals of mutually different field numbers out of the right-eye and left-eye video signals of a simultaneous stereoscopic television signal time-sequentially recorded in a sequence of field numbers together with audio signals so that the right-eye video signal and the left-eye video signal are respectively recorded for a time period of two fields in each of said plurality of track turns, two mutually adjacent track turns comprising the right-eye and left-eye video signals related to identical fields recorded side by side to each other, said spiral track comprising said right-eye and left-eye video signals in a predetermined sequence which is repeated with a period of eight fields.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
77 words
An information signal recording disc as claimed in claim 1 in which said predetermined sequence is made up of one of said right-eye and left-eye video signals related to one field, the other of said right-eye and left-eye video signals related to two fields, said one video signal related to one field, said other video signal related to one field, said one video signal related to two fields, and said other video signal related to one field.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
183 words
An information signal recording disc as claimed in claim 2 which further comprises a first kick instruction signal recorded on said spiral track within a vertical blanking period portion between a fourth field of said one video signal and a fifth field of said other video signal in said predetermined sequence and a second kick instruction signal recorded on said spiral track within a vertical blanking period portion immediately before a first field of said one video signal in said predetermined sequence, said first kick instruction signal instructing a reproducing element of a reproducing apparatus to kick by one track pitch in a backward direction approximately one field after a first reproducing point when the reproducing element reproduces said first kick instruction signal and to kick by one track pitch in a forward direction approximately three and four fields after said first reproducing point, said second kick instruction signal instructing the reproducing element to kick by one track pitch in the forward direction approximately three and foru fields after a second reproducing point when the reproducing element reproduces said second kick instruction signal.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
98 words
An information signal recording disc as claimed in claim 2 in which a track turn part corresponding to a fourth field of said one video signal in said predetermined sequence is divided into two portions at an arbitrary position on said track turn part, a first of said two portions being recorded with audio signals related to the fourth field of said one video signal, a latter of said two portions being recorded with audio signals related to a specific field of said other video signal recorded four fields before the fourth field of said one video signal.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
85 words
An information signal recording disc as claimed in claim 1 in which said predetermined sequence is made up of one of said right-eye and left-eye video signals related to one field, the other of said right-eye and left-eye video signals related to one field, said one video signal related to one field, said other video signal related to two fields, said one video signal related to one field, said other video signal related to one field, and said one video signal related to one field.
