Abstract

Video disc track numbers are conveyed during each video line by means of a tri-phase modulation of a data carrier recorded along with the picture and sound carriers on a video disc. Upon playback, the data sequence is processed to identify tracking errors occurring within each video field to thereby enable immediate correction of disc tracking errors on a line-by-line basis thus minimizing picture and sound interruptions caused by intra-field tracking errors.
