Optical disc playback device having uniform frame interval track jump based on disc rotation angle

Claim 2

An optical disc playback device comprising: a picture memory storing picture data reproduced from an optical disc; memory control means for storing, when a still picture command has been given, picture data which is being reproduced in said picture memory and reading out the stored picture data repeatedly; rotation signal generation means for generating, at a predetermined interval, a predetermined number of signals for each rotation of a disc motor coupled to the optical disc, said predetermined interval corresponding to a rotation angle determined by dividing a rotation of the disc motor into a predetermined number of equal rotational increments; a system control means for detecting, when the still picture command has been given, a record position on the optical disc at which the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded, and supplying a jump pulse to a tracking actuator of an optical pickup each time a position on the optical disc which has a specific relation with the record position has been detected in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means, thereby to cause a beam spot to jump a predetermined number of tracks in a backward direction; and recorded data angle amount detection means for detecting, in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means, an angle amount of recording on the optical disc of the picture data stored in said picture memory in the still picture playback mode; said system control means detecting, when a still picture shifting command in a backward direction has been given, a position on the optical disc at which a forward picture data of one frame before the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded from the detected recorded data angle amount to cause the optical pickup to perform track jump to a position before said position, and said memory control means storing the forward picture data in said picture memory and reading out the stored forward picture data repeatedly upon reaching the recorded position of the forward picture data.

Claim 3

An optical disc playback device as defined in claim 1 wherein said optical disc is of a constant linear velocity disc type.

Claim 4

An optical disc playback device as defined in claim 2, wherein movie film-to-television converted data is recorded on said optical disc.

Claim 5

An optical disc playback device as defined in claim 1, wherein: the memory control means stores, when a fast/slow playback command has been given, picture data which is reproduced at each track jump in said picture memory and reads out stored picture data repeatedly; the recorded data angle amount detection means detects, when the fast/slow playback command has been given, recorded data angle amount on the optical disc of the picture data stored in said picture memory in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means; and the system control means computes, in accordance with the detected recorded data angle amount, a trace angle amount necessary for reading one picture data from the optical disc and a track jump amount necessary for achieving a multiplying number of playback speed set on the basis of the trace angle amount and, when the computed trace angle amount has been detected by said recorded data angle amount detection means, causes an optical pickup to jump the computed track jump amount.

Claim 6

Claim 7

An optical disc playback device as defined in claim 5, wherein movie-to-television converted data is recorded on said optical disc.

Claim 8

An optical disc playback device comprising: a picture memory storing picture data reproduced from an optical disc; memory control means for storing, when a still picture command has been given, picture data which is being reproduced in said picture memory and reading out the stored picture data repeatedly; rotation signal generation means for generating, at a predetermined interval, a predetermined number of signals for each rotation of a disc motor coupled to the optical disc, said predetermined interval corresponding to a rotation angle determined by dividing a rotation of the disc motor into a predetermined number of equal rotational increments; a system control means for detecting, when the still picture command has been given, a record position on the optical disc at which the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded, and supplying a jump pulse to a tracking actuator of an optical pickup each time a position on the optical disc which has a specific relation with the record position has been detected in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means, thereby to cause a beam spot to jump a predetermined number of tracks in a backward direction; said system control means detecting, when a still picture shifting command in a forward direction has been given in a still picture playback mode, a position on the optical disc at which backward picture data which is one frame after the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means and said memory control means storing the backward picture data in said picture memory and reading out the stored backward picture data repeatedly; and recorded data angle amount detection means for detecting, in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means, an angle amount of recording on the optical disc of the picture data stored in said picture memory in the still picture playback mode; said system control means detecting, when a still picture shifting command in a backward direction has been given, a position on the optical disc at which a forward picture data of one frame before the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded from the detected recorded data angle amount to cause the optical pickup to perform track jump to a position before said position, and said memory control means storing the forward picture data in said picture memory and reading out the stored forward picture data repeatedly upon reaching the recorded position of the forward picture data.

Claim 9

An optical disc playback device comprising: a picture memory storing picture data reproduced from an optical disc; memory control means for storing, when a still picture command has been given, picture data which is being reproduced in said picture memory and reading out the stored picture data repeatedly; rotation signal generation means for generating, at a predetermined interval, a predetermined number of signals for each rotation of a disc motor coupled to the optical disc, said predetermined interval corresponding to a rotation angle determined by dividing a rotation of the disc motor into a predetermined number of equal rotational increments; a system control means for detecting, when the still picture command has been given, a record position on the optical disc at which the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded, and supplying a jump pulse to a tracking actuator of an optical pickup each time a position on the optical disc which has a specific relation with the record position has been detected in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means, thereby to cause a beam spot to jump a predetermined number of tracks in a backward direction; said system control means detecting, when a still picture shifting command in a forward direction has been given in a still picture playback mode, a position on the optical disc at which backward picture data which is one frame after the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means and said memory control means storing the backward picture data in said picture memory and reading out the stored backward picture data repeatedly; and recorded data angle amount detection means for detecting, in response to the signal generated by said rotation signal generation means, an angle amount of recording on the optical disc of the picture data stored in said picture memory in the still picture playback mode; said system control means detecting, when a still picture shifting command in a backward direction has been given, a position on the optical disc at which a forward picture data of one frame before the picture data stored in said picture memory is recorded from the detected recorded data angle amount to cause the optical pickup to perform track jump to a position before said position, and said memory control means storing the forward picture data in said picture memory and reading out the stored forward picture data repeatedly upon reaching the recorded position of the forward picture data.
