Abstract
Abstract A magnetic disk contains video signals, representing an image, recorded on some tracks thereof in the form of digital signals, and also contains video signals, representing the same image, recorded on other tracks thereof. A recording apparatus receives analog video signals representative of an image, and converts the received signals into associated digital data to be temporarily stored in a storage. The data stored in the storage is read out to be recorded on tracks of the magnetic disk, and also to be converted into corresponding analog signals to be recorded on other tracks thereof.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
41 words
A magnetic disk comprising a first track on which video signals representing a picture are recorded in the form of digital signals, and a second track on which video signals representing said picture are recorded in the form of analog signals.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
41 words
A magnetic disk comprising a first track on which video signals representing a picture are recorded in the form of digital signals, and a second track on which video signals representing said picture are recorded in the form of analog signals.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
A magnetic disk in accordance with claim 1, wherein said disk is used in an electronic still camera system.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
67 words
A magnetic disk in accordance with claim 1, wherein said video signals are in the form of two interlaced fields constituting one frame of a picture, said video signals being recorded on the outermost two of said tracks in the form of analog signals on a one-field-to-one-track basis, said video signals being recorded on the remaining inner ones of said tracks in the form of digital data.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
113 words
An apparatus for recording video signals on tracks of a magnetic disk, comprising: analog-to-digital converting means for receiving analog video signals representing a picture, and for converting said video signals into corresponding digital video signals; record means for recording said video signals on said magnetic disk; and control means for controlling said analog-to-digital converting means and said record means; said control means controlling said record means and said analog-to-digital converting means to record said analog video signals on desired tracks of said magnetic disk, while causing said analog-to-digital converting means to convert said analog video signals into digital video signals so as to be recorded on other desired tracks of said magnetic disk.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
113 words
An apparatus for recording video signals on tracks of a magnetic disk, comprising: analog-to-digital converting means for receiving analog video signals representing a picture, and for converting said video signals into corresponding digital video signals; record means for recording said video signals on said magnetic disk; and control means for controlling said analog-to-digital converting means and said record means; said control means controlling said record means and said analog-to-digital converting means to record said analog video signals on desired tracks of said magnetic disk, while causing said analog-to-digital converting means to convert said analog video signals into digital video signals so as to be recorded on other desired tracks of said magnetic disk.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
45 words
An apparatus in accordance with claim 4 further comprising memory means for storing said digital video signals, said control means reading out said digital video signals from said memory means to said record means to record the readout digital video signals on said magnetic disk.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
75 words
An apparatus in accordance with claim 4, wherein said video signals are in the form of two interlaced fields constituting one frame of a picture, said control means causing said video signals to be recorded on the outermost two of said tracks on said magnetic disk in the form of analog signals on a one-field-to-one-track basis, while causing video signals developed from said analog-to-digital converting means to be recorded on inner ones of said tracks.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
101 words
An apparatus in accordance with claim 5, comprising: digital-to-analog converting means for converting digital video signals read out from said memory means into corresponding analog video signals; and selecting means responsive to said control means for selectively transmitting an output from said memory means and an output from said digital-to-analog converting means to said record means; said control means controlling said selecting means to cause said record means to record video signals developed from said digital-to-analog converting means on a track on said magnetic disk, and video signals read out from said memory means on another track on said magnetic disk.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
128 words
An apparatus in accordance with claim 7, wherein said video signals are in the form of two interlaced fields constituting one frame of a picture, said control means controlling said selecting means to supply video signals developed from said digital-to-analog converting means to said record means to cause said record means to record output video signals from said digital-to-analog converting means on the outermost two of said tracks on said magnetic disk on a one-field-to-one-track basis, and controlling said selecting means to supply video signals read out from said memory means to supply video signals read out from said memory means to said record means to cause said record means to record the readout video signals on tracks disposed on the inner side of said outermost two tracks.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
19 words
An apparatus in accordance with claim 4, wherein said magnetic disk is used in an electronic still camera system.
