Signal processing device
View Patent ↗In the present signal processing device, a recording unit is configured to record an inputted signal into a recording medium. A switch input unit is configured to input signal selection information for selecting any one of a plurality of signals. A meta-input unit is provided independently from the switch input unit. The meta-input unit is configured to input metadata. A switch list managing unit is configured to associate the signal selection information and the metadata and manage the signal selection information and the metadata as a switch metadata information every time the signal selection information is inputted into the switch input unit. A playlist recording unit is configured to determine a reproduction duration of each clip and generate a playlist including the metadata based on the switch metadata information. The playlist recording unit is configured to output the playlist to the recording medium.
1. A signal processing device, comprising:
a recording device configured to record an inputted signal in a recording medium;
a switch input device configured to input signal selection information for selecting any one of a plurality of signals;
a meta-input device configured to input metadata indicating a validity of timing in a signal selection, the meta-input device provided independently from the switch input device;
a switch list controller configured to manage the signal selection information and the metadata inputted in the meta-input device in association with each other as a switch metadata information every time the signal selection information is inputted into the switch input device; and
a playlist recording device configured to determine a reproduction duration of each clip and generate a playlist including the metadata based on the switch metadata information and to output the playlist to the recording medium.
2. The signal processing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the meta-input device is configured to receive the metadata during a predetermined period of time from a clock time when the signal selection information is inputted into the switch input device.
3. The signal processing device according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a first signal input device configured to input signals of a plurality of signal paths; and
a switch control device configured to select any one of the signal paths based on the signal selection information inputted into the switch input device, wherein
the recording device is configured to output the signals of the signal paths to the recording medium, and
the signal selection information for selecting the any one of the signal paths is inputted into the switch input device.
4. The signal processing device according to claim 3 , wherein
the signal selection information includes at least one of clock time information and signal path information.
5. The signal processing device according to claim 2 , wherein
the playlist recording device is configured to generate the playlist and output the playlist to the recording medium every time the signal selection information is inputted into the switch input device.
6. The signal processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a playlist change device configured to change the reproduction duration in the playlist based on the metadata contained and recorded in the playlist.
7. The signal processing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the signal includes a video signal.
