20100274371 | Content recording/reproducing apparatus - A voice recorder includes a microphone. When a recording mode is selected, surrounding audio is fetched by the microphone, and corresponding audio data is recorded on a flash memory by an encode/decode IC. When a normal reproducing mode is selected, audio data is reproduced from the flash memory by the encode/decode IC, and a corresponding audio signal is output from a speaker. In the recording mode, the CPU assigns status information indicating “0” to each of one or more partial audio components forming the audio data. However, the status information of the partial audio component reproduced in the normal reproducing mode is updated to “1”. When a skip reproducing mode is selected, a partial audio component of which status information indicates “0” is detected and reproduced from the flash memory. | 10-28-2010 |
