Abstract
A recording and reproduction allows recording and playback of video and audio signals. While viewing a recorded video and audio signal, it is sometimes desirable to switch to a real-time transmission. A time lag, however, can occur during this switching when a disk recording device is used. By providing a system with both a disk recording device and a high speed semiconductor recording device, it is possible to realize a smaller time lag and therefore smooth switching from a recorded signal to a real-time signal.
