ABSTRACT:
The video-to-data converter buffers and converts the video data received from a camera or a conventional video tape drive into a data record format that is compatible with a computer data tape drive subsystem and its media, such as a 3480-type magnetic tape cartridge. In addition, a header is interposed between a leader portion of the magnetic tape and the remainder of the magnetic tape. This header segment contains two sections, a first of which is a data record directory that is used by the control unit to denote the location of each data record on the magnetic tape as well as administrative data associated with the data record. The second section of the header is an administrative information section that contains data relating to the magnetic tape itself.
