ABSTRACT:
A video recorder for recording and reproducing video signals having a bandwidth with a limited upper transmission frequency, including HDTV signals. A recording signal processing circuit (14) with a first scanning circuit (10.1) for scanning the video signal to be recorded with first scanning recording pulses of a first scanning frequency that is at least equal to the limited upper transmission frequency, for providing the first recording signal (AS1), and a second scanning circuit (10.2) for scanning the video signal to be recorded with second scanning recording pulses that are displaced through half a cycle with respect to the first scanning pulses of the first scanning circuit (10.1), and having a second scanning frequency equal to the first scanning frequency, for providing the second recording signal (AS2). A recording/playback circuit (15, 16) includes recording-reproducing heads (11.1, 11.2) in close proximity to each other, for recording two recording signals (AS1, AS2) on two adjacent tracks of a magnetic tape (12), and for reading playback signals (LS1, LS2). The playback signal generating device (17 ) has a playback scanning switch (13) for alternately and successively scanning the playback signals (LS1, LS2) with playback scanning pulses, the switch (13) having a scanning frequency with pulses repeating at twice the first scanning frequency, for providing a composite playback video signal having the limited upper transmission frequency.
