Abstract
A line number LN is extracted from serial data corresponding to BTA S-004 standard. The line number LN is placed as LN and LN to each of a luminance signal Y and color difference signals Pr/Pb of a 4:2:2 signal. The 4:2:2 signal is converted into a 3:1:1 signal by a bandwidth-compressing means. In addition, the 3:1:1 signal is re-arranged to two-channel signals Ch and Ch with the same format at a transmission rate of 46.40625 MHz. Thereafter, the, signals are processed at the transmission rate of 46.40625. The line number LN is placed as LN and LN at the beginning of one horizontal interval.
