An object of the present invention is to provide a stereoscopic video recording method, a stereoscopic video recording medium, a stereoscopic video reproducing method, a stereoscopic video recording apparatus, and a stereoscopic video reproducing apparatus that are capable of more optimally performing recording and reproduction of stereoscopic video. According to one solving means of the present invention, a stereoscopic video recording method records, in a recording medium, stereoscopic video including left-eye images (2) and right-eye images (1) utilizing parallax information, by using a stereoscopic video recording apparatus (6). From video content that contains stereoscopic images, the method grasps the amount of variation in parallactic angle having a given or larger value, a variation time that the variation in parallactic angle takes, and the number of times that the variation in parallactic angle occurs. The method then calculates an evaluation value that corresponds to the degree of eye fatigue on the basis of the amount of variation, the variation time, and the number of times of the variation, encodes the video content in such a manner that the evaluation value is within a given range, and records the encoded video content in the recording medium.

Method and system for memory usage in real-time audio systems
System and method for encoding, transmitting and decoding audio data. Audio bit steam syntax is re-organized to allow system optimizations that work well with memory latency and memory burst operations. Multiple small entropy coding tables are stored in RAM and loaded to on-chip memory as needed. Audio prediction is pipelined in the bitstream syntax. Intra frames, independent of other frames in the bitstream, are included in the bitstream for error recovery and channel change. New algorithms are implemented in legacy syntax by including the new information in the user data space of the audio frame. The new decoder can use projection to determine where the new information is and read ahead in the stream. Audio prediction from the immediately previous frame is restricted. Audio prediction is performed across channels within a single audio frame. A variable re-order function comprises storing channels of data to DRAM in the order they are decoded and reading them out in presentation order.

Reproduction accuracy of a digital signal, representing, for example, stereo audio signals, is improved by transmitting sample data which have been encoded to form transmission signals. The stereo audio signals are coded into sub(band) signals. Corresponding sub(band) signals of the stereo audio signals may be processed to obtain composite sub(band) signals, which are recorded on a record carrier. To identify whether corresponding sub(band) signals have been processed or not, a mode indicator control signal, indicating whether a corresponding sub signal of the at least two signal components have or have not been processed into a composite sub-signal, is also being recorded on the record carrier.
