| abstract |
An information receiving/recording/reproduction apparatus according to the present invention includes, as shown in FIG. 1 , a compressively uncodable signal detection unit ( 102 ) for detecting information that indicates whether an inputted analog video/audio signal can be compressively encoded or not; and a recording/reproduction management unit ( 104 ) for managing a recording/reproduction state of the compressively encoded data on the basis of the information that is obtained from the compressively uncodable signal detection unit ( 102 ), to manage the recording/reproduction state of the compressively encoded data. n Accordingly, when the data are reproduced, problems such as disturbance of images, and in the worst case, freeze of the system are prevented on the basis of a state of the inputted analog video/audio signal. |
