  The present invention relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, a program, and a storage medium, and more particularly to a technique suitable for use in recording moving image data having a large file size.

  In recent years, a video camera has been introduced which has a built-in large-capacity hard disk (HDD) composed of several tens of gigabytes (GB) and records and reproduces video data and audio data on the HDD. In this type of video camera, recorded data is generally managed by a predetermined file system, and a FAT file system is widely used as a file system. The FAT file system is a file system adopted by many digital cameras, but the upper limit of the capacity per file is 4 GB.

  On the other hand, in a video camera having a recording capacity of several tens GB, it is desirable to be able to support continuous recording for a long time in order to make use of the large capacity, and for that purpose, a stream of 4 GB or more can be recorded. is necessary. As a countermeasure, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method for seamlessly reproducing AV signals, and information indicating the state of the IN point and PUT point of each scene with respect to the Playlist arranged in the reproduction order. Is described. In order to indicate that one file is divided, “E type” is described in this information.

  If this technology is used, recording of a stream file is continued, and when the file size reaches 4 GB, it is recorded in the next file, and a series of scenes are recorded as “E type” as information of this connection point. It becomes possible to divide and record into files.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of a file structure when compressed video data is recorded on the HDD 112.
In FIG. 2, 201 is a root directory. Reference numeral 202 denotes a directory for recording a moving image file group recorded by the file system of the present embodiment, and is named “AV”. Furthermore, subdirectories such as a “PLAYLIST” directory 203, a “STREAM” directory 204, and a “PRIVATE” directory 205 are provided.

  Each of the compressed video data groups 207 from “00000.MTS” to “00002.MTS” is compressed video data, and the “STREAM” directory 204 is recorded as a parent directory. The subsequent “00003.MTS” and “00004.MTS” are also compressed video data, and are recorded with the “STREAM” directory 204 as a parent directory.

  A file “00000.PL” 206 is a playlist file that functions as a part of management information, and a “PLAYLIST” directory 203 is recorded as a parent directory. The compressed video data recorded in this way is reproduced in the order described in the playlist. The details of the playlist and the file “00000.PLB” 208 will be described later. In this embodiment, compressed video data, a playlist, and the like are recorded in the HDD 112, but may be recorded in another nonvolatile storage medium.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a state when compressed video data is recorded.
In FIG. 3, “00000” to “00004” indicate the MTS files from “00000.MTS” to “00004.MTS” described above. In the example illustrated in FIG. 3, recording starts from a file “00000.MTS”.

  The file is closed when a predetermined file size is reached due to file system restrictions. Here, the file size serving as a reference for closing the file differs depending on the file system, such as 2 GB or 4 GB. However, it is necessary to continue recording the compressed video data without interruption while the camera shooting is continued until an instruction to stop recording is given. Therefore, in the present embodiment, control is performed to continue recording while dividing into a plurality of compressed video data. Hereinafter, the process of recording while dividing into a plurality of compressed video data is referred to as file division recording.

  In the example shown in FIG. 3, “00000”, “00001”, and “00002” are compressed video data recorded by file division recording. “00003” and “00004” are scenes in which recording is completed in one file.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of description contents of a playlist in the present embodiment. In this embodiment, a playlist when recording as shown in FIG. 3 is performed is shown.
The playlist shown in FIG. 4 includes PlayItem information, which will be described later, and device specific information (device information). In the present embodiment, each MTS file is managed as a PlayItem. In the playlist shown in FIG. 4, the number of PlayItems is described, and information is followed by the number of PlayItems. Also, the compressed video data is reproduced according to the description order.

  Each PlayItem includes at least recording order information including a file number, recording date and time, IN TIME and OUT TIME, and connection information. Here, the file number indicates the five characters of the numeric part of the MTS file such as “00000” and “00001”. IN TIME and OUT TIME indicate reproduction time information called PTS (Presentation Time Stamp) defined by MPEG2. In the present embodiment, the connection portion recorded by the file division recording is at the same time. For example, OUT TIME of “00000” and IN TIME of “00001” shown in FIG. 3 are the same time.

  The connection information is information for determining whether the file is generated by file division recording. Based on the value of this connection information, it can be determined whether or not the file is generated by divided recording. PlayItem [1] and PlayItem [2] shown in FIG. 4 are “00001.MTS” and “00002.MTS” shown in FIG. 3, respectively. The value of the connection information for these two files is “1” to indicate that file division recording has been performed.

  On the other hand, the device-specific information includes a manufacturer ID that can identify the manufacturer and a model ID that enables the model to be specified. The model ID further includes unique identification information such as a serial number. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a playlist that includes detailed information in the present embodiment, and shows a playlist in the same state as in FIGS. 2 and 3. Thus, the playlist is generated by the recording / reproducing circuit 110 and recorded in the HDD 112.

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a state in which an external device is connected via the USB terminal 114 illustrated in FIG.
In the example shown in FIG. 5A, a video camera 501 and a PC 502 are connected via a USB cable 503. The PC 502 has a DVD drive 505 built therein. In the example shown in FIG. 5B, a video camera 501 and an external DVD drive 506 are connected via a USB cable 503.

  In the video camera 100 with a built-in hard disk in the present embodiment, the microcomputer 107 functions as a transmission unit and can transmit a recording file to an external medium such as a DVD disk. In the example shown in FIG. 5A, the recording file of the video camera 501 can be copied and recorded on the DVD disc mounted on the DVD drive 505 under the control of application software installed in the PC 502. .

  5B, when connected to the external DVD drive 506, the control firmware of both the video camera 501 and the external DVD drive 506 cooperate to record a recording file on the DVD disk. It is possible to copy.

  When the compressed video data group 207 is copied to a DVD disk of about 4 GB which is an external recording medium, each compressed video data is divided into a plurality of disks. Therefore, for example, when each compressed video data is 4 GB and one file is recorded on one DVD disk, file division recording is not performed because each DVD disk is not subject to file system restrictions.

  For this reason, when compressed video data is recorded on each DVD disk by the external PC 502 or the external DVD drive 506, it is necessary to change the connection information to other than “1”. In this case, the DVD disc does not include information indicating that the file division recording has been performed. FIG. 7 shows this state. As a result, it becomes impossible to determine whether or not the compressed video data recorded on the DVD disc is divided compressed video data. Therefore, in the future, it will take much time and effort to copy the divided files again to a larger-capacity disk and combine them into one scene.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, a PLB file made up of information for restoring the original playlist information is copied as a part of the management information to the “PRIVATE” directory 205 of each DVD disc. FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a description example of the file “00000.PLB” illustrated in FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, in the file “00000.PLB”, PlayItem information relating to all of a plurality of files constituting a scene where file division recording has been performed is described. Thereby, other divided compressed video data can be specified.

  Thus, when compressed video data is recorded on a DVD disc, the connection information is changed to other than “1”, but the connection information is recorded as “1” in the PLB file. Accordingly, this file is one of a plurality of files that originally constituted one scene, and other files recorded in a divided manner can be easily detected. Therefore, later, a plurality of files that are divided and recorded can be easily combined as one scene on a large-capacity disc.

FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a recording processing procedure in the present embodiment. Each step shown in FIG. 9 is performed by the recording / reproducing circuit 110 functioning as a recording unit under the control of the microcomputer 107.
In FIG. 9, when the recording process is started, first, in step S901, it is determined whether or not the file size of the compressed video data being recorded has reached 4 GB. In the file system of this embodiment, the upper limit value is 4 GB. Also, at the start of recording of one file, thumbnail image data is generated using the first screen of the file, and stored and recorded at a predetermined position in the file.

  If the result of this determination is that 4 GB has been reached, processing proceeds to step S902. In step S902, the compressed video data is divided and recording processing for the next compressed video data is started. At this time, information such as a file number, recording date and time, IN TIME, and OUT TIME is described in PlayItem. The description timing of PlayItem is not limited to the point in time when the recording process of the compressed video data is completed, and any timing may be used.

  Next, in step S903, the connection information included in the PlayItem of the compressed video data that has been recorded in step S902 is set to “1”. Then, the process returns to step S901.

  On the other hand, if 4 GB has not been reached as a result of the determination in step S903, the process proceeds to step S904, and it is determined whether or not the recording process for one scene has ended. If the result of this determination is that the recording process for one scene has not been completed, processing returns to step S901.

  On the other hand, if the result of determination in step S904 is that the recording process for one scene has been completed, processing proceeds to step S905. Next, in step S905, information such as the file number, recording date, IN TIME, and OUT TIME is described in the PlayItem of the compressed video data that has been recorded last. Then, a PLB file as shown in FIG. 9 is created and stored in the “PLIVATE” directory 205, and the process is terminated.

  In addition, when recording each compressed video data on which file division recording has been performed on a DVD disk, the file “00000.PLB” 208 is copied and transferred to an external PC 502 or an external DVD drive 506.

Next, processing when data recorded on the HDD 112 is copied to a DVD that is another recording medium connected as shown in FIG. 5 will be described.
When the copy mode is set by operating the video camera 100 with the PC 502 or the external DVD drive 506 connected to the video camera 100, the microcomputer 107 sets the file of each scene based on the playlist of FIG. Is detected. Then, thumbnail image data indicating the contents of each scene is reproduced from the HDD 112 and displayed on the liquid crystal panel 106. The user selects a scene to be copied from the displayed scenes and instructs to start copying.

  When the microcomputer 107 is instructed to start copying, the microcomputer 107 detects files constituting the selected scene based on the playlist. Then, the file storing the first data of the scene is reproduced from the HDD 112 and transmitted together with the recording start command via the USB terminal 114. When the reproduction and transmission of the video data file are completed, the PLB file related to this file is reproduced from the HDD 112 and transmitted via the USB terminal 114.

  Here, when the selected scene is composed of a plurality of files, when copying of one file is completed, information is displayed on the liquid crystal panel 106 so as to mount the next DVD. When a new DVD is loaded, the microcomputer 107 reproduces the next file from the HDD 112 and similarly transmits it via the USB terminal 114. Then, the PLB file is transmitted. In this way, when all the files of the selected scene and its PLB file are copied to the DVD, the copy process is terminated.

  By using the backup information described in the PLB file, it is possible to construct an application that collects data on a single disk as described above or writes it back to the HDD 112 as a scene. Further, by using this information, it is possible to provide a function such as requesting the next disc in another DVD player.

  In the present embodiment, the file “00000.PLB” 208 is created. However, an area in which unique information can be described in the playlist may be provided and described there. Further, the connection information has been described as information for identifying file division recording, but other seamless information may exist.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the example in which the compressed video data is transferred to the external PC 502 or the external DVD drive 506 and recorded on the DVD disk has been described. On the other hand, when the video camera 100 according to the present embodiment has a function of recording on a DVD disk, the video camera 100 may record on the DVD disk.

  In this case, the recording / reproducing circuit 110 functions as a second recording unit. For example, a file “00000.MTS” on the first DVD disk, a playlist for PlayItem [0], and a file “00000.PLB”. Record the file 208. In addition, a file “00001.MTS”, a playlist for PlayItem [1], and a file “00000.PLB” 208 are recorded on another DVD disc. Similarly, a file “00002.MTS”, a play list for PlayItem [2], and a file “00000.PLB” 208 are recorded on another DVD disc.

  In this embodiment, the manufacturer ID and the model ID are used as device information for identifying the recording device. However, when analyzing the file “00000.PLB” 208 (PLB file), other information may be used as long as it can be distinguished from those recorded by another recording device.

  Therefore, when the video camera 100 according to the present embodiment has a function of recording on a DVD disc, when the identification information is included in the previously copied DVD disc, the identification information is read and the other It may be recorded on a DVD disc. In particular, if copying is started from a DVD on which the last data of the scene is recorded, identification information of all DVD disks can be recorded as the DVD on which the first data of the scene is recorded is copied. As a result, the identification information of all subsequent DVD disks can be recorded on the DVD disk to which the first compressed video data is copied.

  For example, the recording / reproducing circuit 110 first copies the file “00002.MTS” to the DVD disc. Next, when the identification information is read from the DVD disk in which the file “00002.MTS” is recorded and the next file “00001.MTS” is copied, the identification information is copied to another DVD disk together with the read identification information. . Then, when the identification information is read from the DVD disk on which the file “00001.MTS” is recorded and the next file “00000.MTS” is copied, the two identification information that has been read are copied to another DVD disk. make a copy.

  In this embodiment, an example in which divided compressed video data is recorded on a DVD disk has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to a DVD disk, and may be a removable card-type recording medium incorporating a nonvolatile storage medium.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, even when the compressed video data group 207 recorded by dividing the file is divided and copied to a plurality of DVD disks, the PLB file can be referred to, so that it can be easily restored as one scene again. It becomes possible to make it.
