Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling digital video recording where parameters related to encoding video frames that are being currently encoded are stored when a pause command is received during recording and the method and apparatus continually record, based on the stored parameters, when the pause command stops, and a camcorder including the pause function. The method includes: receiving a pause command; storing parameters related to encoding video frames that are presently being encoded in a memory, and then stop encoding video frames that are input after the parameters are stored in the memory; and encoding video frames that are input after receiving a pause release command using parameter information related to encoding when the pause release command is received. Thus, video recording efficiency can be improved by having the pause function.
