Abstract
Abstract Method of recording and reproducing picture information and a recording medium on which the picture information is recorded by the method, and an apparatus for playing such a recording medium. In addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information being inserted as a subcode of the coded information signal and identification information indicating areas of the recording medium in which predetermined sections of the subcode are recorded are recorded on the recording medium. At the time of playback of the recording medium, the areas are searched in response to a command by using the identification information and a picture signal corresponding to the graphic codes obtained by reading information recorded in that areas of the recording medium.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
115 words
A method of recording and reproducing picture information on a recording medium, comprising the steps of: recording, in addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information on said recording medium by inserting said graphic codes in a subcode of said coded information signal, and recording on said recording medium identification information indicating positions of said recording medium in which predetermined sections of said subcode are recorded; searching, at a time of playback of said recording medium, said positions in response to a picture information displaying command by using said identification information; and generating a picture signal corresponding to said graphic codes as the subcode obtained by reading information recorded in said positions.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
115 words
A method of recording and reproducing picture information on a recording medium, comprising the steps of: recording, in addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information on said recording medium by inserting said graphic codes in a subcode of said coded information signal, and recording on said recording medium identification information indicating positions of said recording medium in which predetermined sections of said subcode are recorded; searching, at a time of playback of said recording medium, said positions in response to a picture information displaying command by using said identification information; and generating a picture signal corresponding to said graphic codes as the subcode obtained by reading information recorded in said positions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
A method as set forth in claim 1, wherein said identification information is recorded in a lead-in area of said recording medium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
52 words
A method as set forth in claim 1, further comprising a step for displaying a picture by said picture signal corresponding to said graphic codes in information recorded in said positions at a position in a display area determined according to a property of said coded information signal recorded in said positions.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
170 words
An apparatus for playing a recording medium on which are recorded, in addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information being inserted as a subcode of said coded information signal, and identification information indicating positions of said recording medium in which predetermined sections of said subcode are recorded, said apparatus comprising: a pickup means for reading signals recorded on said recording medium and generating a pickup output signal; a coded information signal demodulating means for demodulating said coded information signal from said pickup output signal; a graphic codes demodulating means for demodulating said graphic codes from an output signal of said coded information signal demodulating means; an identification information demodulating means for demodulating said identification information from said output signal of said coded information signal demodulating means; searching means for searching said positions in response to a picture information displaying command by using said identification information; and a means for generating a picture signal corresponding to said graphic codes obtained by reading information recorded in said positions.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
170 words
An apparatus for playing a recording medium on which are recorded, in addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information being inserted as a subcode of said coded information signal, and identification information indicating positions of said recording medium in which predetermined sections of said subcode are recorded, said apparatus comprising: a pickup means for reading signals recorded on said recording medium and generating a pickup output signal; a coded information signal demodulating means for demodulating said coded information signal from said pickup output signal; a graphic codes demodulating means for demodulating said graphic codes from an output signal of said coded information signal demodulating means; an identification information demodulating means for demodulating said identification information from said output signal of said coded information signal demodulating means; searching means for searching said positions in response to a picture information displaying command by using said identification information; and a means for generating a picture signal corresponding to said graphic codes obtained by reading information recorded in said positions.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
48 words
A picture information recording medium, on which are recorded, in addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information inserted as a subcode of said coded information signal and identification information indicating positions of said recording medium in which predetermined sections of said subcode are recorded.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
48 words
A picture information recording medium, on which are recorded, in addition to a coded information signal, graphic codes including picture information inserted as a subcode of said coded information signal and identification information indicating positions of said recording medium in which predetermined sections of said subcode are recorded.
