ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for preventing unauthorized recording of video programs on tape, in which the frame repetition frequency of the signals to be transmitted is changed in such a manner that, on the one hand, the operation of a television apparatus used for reproducing said signals will not be disturbed, but that, on the other hand, the cooperation between the driving means for the tape and the recording head displacement in the tape recording apparatus will be disturbed. The apparatus comprises an input stage (4) for digitalizing the video signals, a shift memory (5), an output stage (8) for converting the video signals to be used into analog form, an input control stage (6) for the memory (5) and an output control stage (7) for the memory (5). The control frequency of the input control stage (6) is adapted to the frame repetition frequency of the digitalized video signals to be stored in the memory (5). The control frequency of the output control stage (7) is different from the control frequency of the input control stage (6), and the capacity of the memory (5) is sufficient to compensate the differences between the signal input and output.
