Abstract
A video signal recording apparatus is provided with first and second channels for transmitting an input video signal. The first channel has a line memory for conducting a 1H delay on data and a time-base-extension line memory for conducting time base extension on the data with the 1H delay. The data subjected to the time base extension undergoes D/A conversion to be an output of the first channel. On the other hand, the second channel does not have a line memory for a 1H delay, and the video signal without delay is subjected, to time base extension and undergoes D/A conversion to be an output of the second channel. In the arrangement, odd lines and even lines respectively contained in adjoining two frames in each channel are reversed such that in a certain frame, odd lines of the input video signal are transmitted through the first channel with even lines through the second channel. In the next frame, even lines are transmitted through the first channel with odd lines through the second channel. Thus, influences on the reproduced picture due to the difference of circuit characteristics is averaged and the perception of unevenness of color or brightness is avoided.
