Information recording and reproducing apparatus

Abstract

An information recording / reproducing apparatus, when a file library is created in a hard disk by the recording / reproducing section 3, in the event of an interruption of the recording operation, such as a power outage or a communication failure, the system controls the microprocessor 31 to control the automatic The incompletely recorded half of the file is deleted in a timely manner, thereby preventing the accumulation of the half recorded file in the hard disk B.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an information recording / reproducing apparatus for reproducing program information recorded on a first recording medium and recording program information on a second recording medium. Background technique [0002] There is an information recording / reproducing apparatus for reproducing and recording program information, in which program information recorded on, for example, a CD (Compact Disc) is reproduced and recorded on a hard disk, and the recorded program information is processed from the hard disk. read and reproduce. [0003] The hard disk records information compressed by a compression method including MP3 (MPEG: Moving Picture Experts Group; Audio Layer III) and ATRAC3 improved from ATRAC (Adaptive Transform Acoustic Coding). [0004] For example, in the case of compressing and recording music information to be played for 1 minute on a hard disk, the total recordable size of the har...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, for example, in an information recording / reproducing device mounted on a vehicle, if the driver stops the engine and leaves the car during the reproduction of the program information recorded on the CD, the power supply of the device is cut off, thereby interrupting the Reproduction operation and recording operation on hard disk

Therefore, at the time of interruption, the program information cannot be completely recorded at the end of the data

[0008] If the user extracts the CD from the device main body to replace the CD during reproduction of the program information recorded on the CD, the reproduction / recording operation is interrupted, whereby the program information cannot be completely record to end of data

In addition, when the extracted CD is inserted into the apparatus main body and reproduced, program information different from reproduced program information that may have been reproduced before may result in a state that the different program information may be recorded in the immediate vicinity of the On the recording area of ​​the recording area where half of the program information is recorded

[0009] Therefore, if the file library is automatically created on the hard disk by reproducing only the program information recorded on the CD without user intervention, various events may occur, thereby causing the above-mentioned troubles.
