Abstract
An information recording apparatus has several function units that perform: storing a time when dubbing is started, halting the dubbing temporarily when that the connecting cable is disconnected, and storing a dubbing time and the picture and audio data for a predetermined time period when the dubbing process is halted temporarily as temporary halt picture and audio information; and when the cable is reconnected, calculating a disconnection time of the cable, rewinding magnetic tape to a predetermined time period ahead of a presumed temporary halt position based on the disconnection time, reproducing the magnetic tape, determining whether a data pattern of the reproduced picture and audio data matches a data pattern of the temporary halt picture and audio information; and if they match, restarting the dubbing process from a position on the magnetic tape corresponding to final recording of the temporary halt picture and audio information.
