ABSTRACT:
A reserved-recording method and apparatus is provided in which a plurality of broadcast programs reserved within a certain time are recorded as many as possible within the limit of capacity of a recording medium. The apparatus includes a key input portion, am memory for storing reserved-recording information of the programs, an on-screen-display (OSD) for displaying character data involving reserved-recording set states of the programs, a timer for checking a current time of a system, and a recording start time and a recording end time of the reserved programs, a detector for detecting and outputting states of a supply reel and a take-up reel and a frequency generator (FG) signal of the capstan motor, a recorder for recording the received broadcast programs, and a system controller for controlling the above whole blocks in order to reserved-record the plurality of broadcast programs. When it becomes a reserved-recording start time, the system controller calculates a tape remaining time and a just-recording time based on the whole reserved broadcast programs, and then controls the programs to be recorded in the SP recording speed mode if the just-recording time is shorter than the tape remaining time, while it controls the programs to be recorded in the SLP recording speed if the former is equal to or longer than the latter. Thus, the reserved-recording method and apparatus records the plurality of the reserved programs as many as possible within the limit of capacity of the recording medium, in which the programs are recorded in the SP mode having a good picture quality up to a proper certain point of time, and then recorded in the SLP mode, thereby providing the picture quality of the programs to be enhanced at best.
