Record regenerative treatment manner and record regenerative central processing unit

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To apply signal processing to a digital image signal reproduced from a recording medium recorded by squeezing or to an input digital signal of a squeezed image so as to be displayed on a monitor whose aspect ratio is 3:4 without a sense of incongruity. SOLUTION: Whether or not an image by a digital image signal reproduced from a recording medium by a reproduction section 11 is a squeezed image is discriminated by a digital signal processing section 13. In the case of a squeezed image, a control section 18 controls a selection section 14 to convert a digital image signal of the squeezed image into a letter box digital image signal by a conversion processing section 15 in the case of a 1st output form depending on the designated output form. When a 2nd output form is designated, the digital image signal of the squeezed image is outputted as it is.
