Color video signal reproducing apparatus

DETAILED DESCRIPTION This invention is directed to the solution of the above stated problem of the prior art.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an apparatus which is capable of correcting a reproduced color video signal with simple arrangement and without deteriorating color information.
Under this object, a color video signal reproducing apparatus arranged as an embodiment of this invention to reproduce a color video signal from a recording medium on which at least a luminance signal and a chrominance signal are recorded together in the form of a multiplexed signal comprises: reproducing means for reproducing the multiplexed signal from the recording medium; separating means arranged to separate the luminance signal and the chrominance signal from the multiplexed signal reproduced by the reproducing means and to produce the separated signals respectively; and demodulating means arranged to demodulate the chrominance signal separated by the separating means into base-band signals and to produce these base-band signals respectively.
It is another object of this invention to reduce the size and cost of an apparatus by arranging a component part of the apparatus to perform combined functions.
Under that object, a color video signal reproducing apparatus arranged as an embodiment of this invention to reproduce a color video signal from a recording medium on which at least a luminance signal and a low-zone converted chrominance signal are recorded in the form of a multiplexed signal comprises: reproducing means for reproducing the multiplexed signal from the recording medium; separating means arranged to separate the luminance signal and the low-band converted chrominance signal from the multiplexed signal reproduced by the reproducing means and to produce the separated signals respectively; reference signal generating means for generating a reference signal; first conversion means arranged to convert the low-band converted chrominance signal separated by the separating means into a different frequency band by using the reference signal of the reference signal generating means and to produce the converted signal; and second conversion means arranged to convert, using the reference signal of the reference signal generating means, the signal obtained from the first conversion means into a plurality of different base-band signals and to produce the base-band signals
