ABSTRACT:
A time base correcting circuit for a digital video tape recorder incorporates a circuit improvement which ameliorates the consequences of erroneous synchronizing address data which is at times supplied with the digitized video signal. Since normally the synchronized address data is incremented for each subsequent block of digital data, the circuit compares incoming synchronized address data to an internally calculated address data field. If the incoming synchronized address data does not match the self-generated synchronized address data, the self-generated address data is substituted for the incoming address data. Preferably, the correction is provided only over short predetermined periods. The circuit reduces degradation of the video signal which is otherwise caused by reception of inaccurate synchronized address data.
