A video reproduction apparatus includes audio data reading unit for reading audio data in a second file; video data reading units for reading video data in a first file; audio decoding unit for generating an audio signal from the audio data read by the audio data reading unit; video decoding unit for decoding the demultiplexed video data; and read controlling unit for controlling the audio data reading unit and the video data reading unit. The read controlling unit reads the first file using a band other than a band required to read the second file, and instructs to output skipped video data.

Video recording device, video reproduction device, and method thereof

In recording materials of a video program or the like, the video materials are efficiently and optimally acquired so that processing steps in and after an editing step subsequent to a recording step can be reduced. A recording support information (metadata) on a schedule of and a performer for an imaging operation, and the like, which are determined in advance is recorded in a first recording mediumby a program constitution input device. The first recording mediumis inserted in to an imaging device, materials to be recorded are classified and confirmed based on the metadata, and the materials which can constitute a desirable program as potentially as possible are acquired in the recording operation.

Imaging device and imaging system

An object of the present invention is to reduce a possibility of existence of a plurality of identical file names in files which are created by a plurality of apparatuses. This is accomplished using a file name generation apparatus having an UMID generation unit () generating a globally unique identifier, and a file name generation unit () generating a file name including the globally unique identifier generated by the UMID generation unit ().

File name generating unit

A frame rate converting apparatus provided with: a frame rate converter performing conversion of frame rate information on a frame rate, on all, a single or a plurality of sections of a video signal having an input time code which video signal is externally inputted and generated by use of a frame rate that changes or does not change; a time code calculator performing calculation of an output time code to be replaced with the input time code, on all, single or plurality of sections where the conversion of the frame rate information is performed; and a time code generator assigning the calculated output time code to all, single or plurality of sections where the conversion of the frame rate information is performed.
