Abstract: When copy protect is applied to a program indicated by a user,
the content of the copy protect is analyzed. On the basis of the
analysis result, such a message as "this program cannot be recorded
with IEEE1394, optical digital audio" is displayed. By displaying
such a message, the user can easily recognize that copy protect is
applied to an indicated program, so that it can be recorded (picture-recorded)
in an analog style, but it cannot be digitally recorded.
Accordingly, the user can easily recognize the copy protect.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and class D amplifier circuitry for compensating a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal. The method includes steps of generating a PWM signal for application to a driver stage; obtaining a filtered difference between the PWM signal and a version of the same PWM signal after the driver stage; generating a correction signal that is indicative of a sign of the filtered difference; and using the correction signal for adjusting at least one of the leading edge or the trailing edge of the PWM signal so as to compensate the version of the same PWM signal after the driver stage. The steps of obtaining and generating include steps of RC filtering, digital comparison and digital filtering. In the preferred embodiment the step of generating generates a one-bit correction signal. The correction signal is used to compensate the version of the same PWM signal after the driver stage for driver stage non-linearities and for power supply noise and variations. The PWM signal is preferably in a thermometer format, although other formats can be used, and the step of adjusting includes initial steps of combining two successive samples into one longer sample, and interpolating the longer sample by a factor in a range of about two to eight. In the presently preferred embodiment the step of generating generates the PWM signal from a multi-bit signal output from a sigma-delta modulator, where the multi-bit signal has 2<sup>n</sup> quantization levels, where n is in a range of about two to about eight.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for extending the cycle life of a battery by using different charge voltages or different current cut-offs to recharge the battery during the course of the battery's life. The capacity of a battery is gradually depleted as the battery is repeatedly charged and discharged. The rate at which the battery capacity is depleted varies in accordance to the charge voltage, or the current cut-off, used to recharge the battery. For example, higher charge voltages cause the capacity to be more rapidly depleted than lower charge voltages. A battery may be charged using a high charge voltage, e.g., its rated charge voltage, during periods of expected high usage. To extend the battery's cycle life, the battery may be charged using a low charge voltage during periods of expected low usage.
