Abstract: An image reproduction apparatus that can select arbitrary
video/audio data among plural MPEG transport streams which have
been recorded in a storage medium at different times, and can
re-multiplex the selected video and audio data into one MPEG
transport stream to be reproduced. When a MPEG transport stream
is recorded in the storage medium, a reference clock is generated
from Program_clock_reference in the stream, and then the MPEG
transport stream is recorded with the generated reference clock
being attached thereto as an Arrived Time Stamp. At the start of
reproduction, a common PCR is generated on the basis of the ATS
value to be used as a video/audio PCR. Further, as for PTS and
DTS, the difference value in the ATS of packets having PTS and
DTS in the same video/audio is calculated, and the video or audio
is outputted so as not to vary the difference value.

Abstract: A improved method for abstracting geothermal energy has water injected into underground strata by a series of bores (1), equally spaced about a second set of bores (4) which collect the heated water. The heat is extracted by a heat exchanger (6) and the cooled water is re-injected into the strata. Each collecting bore is surrounded by a set of injecting bores in a polygonal array, e.g. six injection bores around a collecting bore. The spacing (S) between the injector and collector bores is selected for optimum heat collection and is typically 200 to 800 metres. For improved efficiency the collecting bores reach deeper than the injecting bores by about 5 percent of the bore spacing and are wider than the injecting bores. The injection and collecting pipes have inlet/outlet ports spaced through depth of the hot strata. For added collection efficiency the strata between the bores can be fragmented, e.g. by hydraulic fragmentation.
