Claims
- 1. A digital signal reproducing apparatus for reproducing a digital signal including address data to identify a data block from a recording medium, comprising:
- reproducing means for reproducing the digital signal including the address data recorded on the recording medium;
- memory means for storing the digital signal reproduced by said reproducing means;
- means for extracting the address data from the reproduced digital signal;
- means for forming reference address data from the extracted address data including multiple coincidence detecting means for detecting multiple, successive coincidences between successive, adjacent pairs of said extracted address data;
- comparing means for comparing the extracted address data and the reference address data; and
- means for writing the reproduced digital signal into said memory means in response to a comparison output signal from said comparing means.
- 2. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said means for selectively writing produces a write request signal to write the reproduced digital signal into said memory means when the comparison output signal from said comparing means indicates that the extracted address data coincides with the reference address data and for not writing the reproduced digital signal into said memory when said two data are not the same.
- 3. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said recording medium comprises a magnetic tape, said address data includes frame address data, and said reproducing means includes first and second rotary heads for reproducing a digital signal recorded on said tape and wherein said multiple coincidence detecting means includes first and second frame address multiple coincidence detecting means receiving frame addresses respectively reproduced by said first and second rotary heads, and said means for forming reference address data includes selector means for selecting an output of said first and second frame address multiple coincidence detecting means and for forming the reference address data from the selected output.
- 4. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said selector means operates in response to a signal fed thereto representing a mechanical reproducing mode of the digital signal reproducing apparatus.
- 5. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising error detecting means for detecting an error of the reproduced digital signal including the frame address data, and said first and second frame address multiple coincidence detecting means are controlled in response to an output of said error detection means.
- 6. Digital signal reproducing apparatus having two rotary heads for reproducing from a magnetic tape a digital signal including address data to identify a data block of the digital signal, comprising:
- reproducing means for reproducing the digital signal including the address data recorded on the recording medium;
- means for extracting the address data from the reproduced digital signal;
- means for forming reference address data from the extracted address data including multiple coincidence detecting means for detecting multiple, successive coincidences between successive, adjacent pairs of said extracted address data;
- comparing means for comparing the extracted address data and the reference address data and producing a coincidence output signal when said extracted address data and said reference address data coincide and belong to the same data block;
- memory means for storing as data blocks the digital signal reproduced by said reproducing means; and
- means for selectively writing the data blocks of the reproduced digital signal into said memory means when said coincidence output signal from said comparing means indicates coincidence between said extracted address data and said reference address data and for not writing therein when said coincidence output signal indicates no coincidence.
- 7. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 6, wherein said address data includes frame address data representing predetermined frame segments of the digital signal, and wherein said multiple coincidence detecting means includes first and second frame address multiple coincidence detecting means receiving frame addresses respectively reproduced by said two rotary heads, and said means for forming reference address data includes selector means for selecting an output from one or the other of said first and second frame address multiple coincidence detecting means and for forming the reference address data from the selected output.
- 8. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 7, wherein said selector means operates in response to a signal fed thereto representing a reproducing mode selected by a user of the digital signal reproducing apparatus.
- 9. A digital signal reproducing apparatus according to claim 7, further comprising error detecting means for detecting errors in the reproduced digital signal and the frame address data, and wherein said first and second frame address multiple coincidence detecting means are controlled in response to an output of said error detection means.
