Patent attributes
A moving image reproducing apparatus includes a CPU mounted with a real-time OS. When a set key is pressed, the CPU executes concurrently a transfer process of compressed image data and sound data from a magneto-optical disk to an SDRAM and a reproduce process of compressed image data and sound data stored in the SDRAM. Herein, the reproduce process includes a process of setting a command of transferring the compressed image data and sound data to an instruction list and a process of outputting the compressed image data and sound data stored in the SDRAM. Meanwhile, the transfer process includes a process of seeking a desired address on the magneto-optical disk by making reference to the instruction list and a process of writing desired data to a desired address in the SDRAM by making reference to the instruct on list.
