Claims
- 1. An information reception apparatus comprising:
- a reception circuit which receives transmission information at transmission information addresses; and
- a record controller which records the transmission information received by said reception circuit on a record medium;
- wherein said record controller starts recording in response to reception of the transmission information by said reception circuit, and wherein recording of the transmission information starts at an intermediate point of a transmission information address, and wherein the transmission information is recorded completely.
- 2. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said record controller starts recording in response to reception of the transmission information by said reception circuit, and recording of the transmission information starts at an intermediate point of a transmission information and is completed at another intermediate point of a transmission information address.
- 3. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, said reception circuit receives transmission information indicated at transmission information addresses sequentially and repeatedly.
- 4. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said record controller records the transmission information on said record medium, based on the transmission information addresses, said transmission information addresses being added to the transmission information.
- 5. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said record controller records the transmission information on said record medium, based on a total amount information indicating a total information amount of the transmission information, said total amount information being added to the transmission information.
- 6. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said record controller reserves a record area on said record medium based on a total information amount of the information to be received, and specifies record addresses of the record area based on the transmission information address.
- 7. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein said record controller comprises:
- a recordable area detector which detects a recordable area on said record medium based on a total amount information indicating a total information amount of the transmission information, said total amount information being added to the transmission information;
- an address generator which generates addresses on said record medium from a start address to completion address, based on the recordable area detected by said recordable area detector; and
- a controller which controls recording of the transmission information at the address on said record medium corresponding to the transmission information address added the transmission information.
- 8. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the information transmission received by said reception circuit contains picture information such as a movie.
- 9. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 1, wherein the information transmission received by said reception circuit contains audio information such as music.
- 10. An information reception apparatus comprising:
- a reception circuit which receives transmission information indicated at transmission information addresses from A to A+E (0<E and A+E>1); and
- a record controller which records the transmission information received by said reception circuit on a record medium;
- wherein said record controller starts recording in response to reception of the transmission information by said reception circuit, and when recording of the transmission information starts from a transmission information address A+N (0<N.ltoreq.E and A+N>1), the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A+N to A+E is recorded and then, sequentially, the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A to A+N-1 is recorded on said record medium.
- 11. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, said reception circuit receives transmission information indicated at transmission information addresses from A to A+E (0<E and A+E>1) sequentially and repeatedly.
- 12. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, wherein said record controller records the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A+N to A+E and then, sequentially, the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A to A+N-1 on said record medium, based on the transmission information addresses, said transmission information addresses being added to the transmission information.
- 13. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, wherein said record controller records the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A+N to A+E and then, sequentially, the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A to A+N-1 on said record medium, based on a total amount information indicating a total information amount of the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A to A+E, said total amount information being added to the transmission information.
- 14. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, wherein said record controller reserves a record area on said record medium based on a total information amount of the information to be received, and specifies record addresses of the record area based on the transmission information address.
- 15. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, wherein said record controller comprises:
- a recordable area detector which detects a recordable area on said record medium based on a total amount information indicating a total information amount of the transmission information indicated at the transmission information addresses from A to A+E, said total amount information being added to the transmission information;
- an address generator which generates addresses on said record medium from an address corresponding to the transmission information address A+N to an address corresponding to the transmission information address A+N-1 sequentially, based on the recordable area detected by said recordable area detector;
- a controller which controls recording of the transmission information at the address on said record medium corresponding to the transmission information address added to the transmission information.
- 16. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, wherein the information transmission received by said reception circuit contains picture information such as a movie.
- 17. An information reception apparatus as defined in claim 10, wherein the information transmission received by said reception circuit contains audio information such as music.
