ABSTRACT:
A signal processing device and method which performs stable video signal reproduction in a slow mode function of a video tape recorder by digitally storing only those slow mode images which are stable. The signal processing device includes a signal separator for receiving a composite video signal which is scanned from a video tape in a slow mode of the VTR and separating the received signals into a luminance signal and chrominance signals; an analog-to-digital converter for converting the separated analog luminance and chrominance signals to digital signals; a storage unit for storing the digital luminance and chrominance signals of each field; a digital-to-analog converter for converting the stored signals to analog signals; a microcomputer for generating slow mode signals when a direct current component of an envelope of the scanned composite video signal exceeds a predetermined value; a digital-to-analog converter for converting the stored digital signals to analog signals and outputting the converted signals; a sync signal generator for receiving sub-carrier signals and outputting the composite sync signals and the sub-carrier signals which are frequency-divided; an encoder for encoding the analog-converted signals in response to the composite sync signals and outputting the encoded composite video signals as signals for constituting the slow mode image; and a controller for controlling the storage unit and encoder in response to the slow mode signals and composite sync signals.
