1. Transmitter for transmitting a first and second digital information signal via a transmission medium, said first digital information signal comprising first frames having at least a first synchronization signal and a data portion stored in them, the transmitter comprising: input means for receiving the first and second digital information signal; processing means for processing the second digital information signal into subsequent second frames, said second frames comprising blocks of information of the second digital information signal; signal combination means for inserting a second synchronisation signal and at least the data portion of a first frame into a second frame of the second digital information signal so as to obtain a composite frame; output means for supplying the composite frames to an output terminal so as to obtain a composite signal to be transmitted; characterized in that said signal combination means are adapted to strip the first synchronization signal from said first frames prior to inserting at least the data portion of the first frames into the second frames. 2. Transmitter as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the signal combination means are adapted to insert the data portion of a first frame into a second frame of the second digital information signal by using buried data techniques. 3. Transmitter as claimed in claim 1 or 2, characterized in that a second frame represents a portion of the second digital information signal of a predefined duration and a first frame represents a portion of a third digital information signal of a substantially the same duration. 4. Transmitter as claimed in claim 3, characterized in that the first digital information signal is obtained by datacompression of the third digital information signal. 5. Transmitter as claimed in claim 4, characterized in that the first digital information signal is in the form of an MPEG encoded signal. 6. Transmitter as claimed in claim 4 or 5, charaterized in that the transmitter further comprises means for detecting the capacity available in a second frame to insert a first frame and generating a control signal for controlling the datacompression of the third digital information signal, said control signal being indicative for the capacity availabe in said second frame. 7. Transmitter as claimed in any of the preceding claims, characterized in that the second digital information signal comprises at least one PCM signal. 8. Transmitter as claimed in anyone of the preceding claims, the transmitter being in the form of an apparatus for recording the digital information signal on a record carrier. 9. Transmitter as claimed in anyone of the preceding claims, characterized in that the transmitter further comprises channel-encoding means for channel encoding the transmission signal prior to transmission. 10 Method of transmitting a first and second digital information signal via a transmission medium, said first digital information signal comprising first frames having at least a first synchronization signal and a data portion stored in them, the method comprising the steps: receiving the first and second digital information signal; processing the second digital information signal into subsequent second frames, said second frames comprising blocks of information of the second digital information signal; inserting a second synchronization signal and at least the data portion of a first frame into a second frame of the second digital information signal so as to obtain a composite frame; supplying the composite frames to an output terminal so as to obtain a composite signal to be transmitted; characterized in that method further comprises the step stripping the first synchronization signal from said first frames prior to inserting at least the data portion of said first frames into the second frames. 11. Method as claimed in claim 10, characterized in that the at least the data portion of a first frame is inserted into a second frame of the second digital information signal by using buried data techniques. 12. Method as claimed in claim 10 or 11, characterized in that a second frame represents a portion of the second digital information signal of a predefined duration and a first frame represents a portion of a third digital information signal of a substantially the same duration. 13. Method as claimed in claim 12, characterized in that the first digital information signal is obtained by datacompression of the third digital information signal. 14. Method as claimed in claim 13, characterized in that the first digital information signal is in the form of an MPEG encoded signal. 15.
