Video recorder apparatus for recording moving picture file in detachable recording medium
A television video recorder apparatus is provided which is capable of generating a moving picture file reproducible in user's intended video quality and volume on a mobile terminal apparatus. The television video recorder apparatus extracts encoding condition information from a memory card in which a first moving picture file encoded under predetermined encoding conditions and having the encoding conditions is stored, and stores the extracted encoding condition information in a rewritable ROM. Next, the television video recorder apparatus sets the encoding conditions on the basis of the encoding condition information stored in the rewritable ROM, generates a second moving picture file by encoding a video signal and an audio signal to be recorded in accordance with the set encoding conditions, and stores the generated second moving picture file in the memory card.

a selecting unit configured to select one of the plurality of items of reproduction environment information; and
a signal processing unit configured to execute the predetermined processing on the video signal and the audio signal on the basis of parameters of the selected reproduction environment information, generate processed video signal and the audio signal, and supply a generated video signal and the audio signal to the encoding unit as the video signal and the audio signal to be recorded.
6. The video recorder apparatus as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein the second storage unit stores reproduction environment information inputted by a user.
7. The video recorder apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
a third storing unit configured to store a plurality of items of user preference information, each including a plurality of parameters upon executing a predetermined processing on the video signal and the audio signal in response to user preference;
a selecting unit configured to select one of the plurality of items of user preference information; and
a signal processing unit configured to execute the predetermined processing on the video signal and the audio signal on the basis of parameters of the selected user preference information, generate processed video signal and the audio signal, and supply a generated video signal and an audio signal to the encoding unit as the video signal and the audio signal to be recorded.
8. The video recorder apparatus as claimed in claim 7 ,
wherein the third storing unit stores user preference information inputted by a user.
9. The video recorder apparatus as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein the first and the second moving picture files encoded by the encoding conditions are reproduced by a predetermined reproduction apparatus.
10. The video recorder apparatus as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein the first storage unit further stores encoding conditions inputted by a user.
11. The video recorder apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising:
a second storage unit configured to store a plurality of items of reproduction environment information, each including a plurality of parameters upon executing a predetermined processing on the video signal and the audio signal in response to a plurality of reproduction environments different from each other upon reproducing a moving picture file;
