Abstract

An improved 8-8 mpping table system in digitally and magnetically recording video signals. Video signals coded into natural binary codes consisting of 8 bits are converted into different binary codes consisting of 8 bits constituted by patterns in which a continuous number of the 1's or the 0's does not exceed a predetermined number. In these codes, the continuous number of the 1's or the 0's is so limited that a maximum magnetization interval is reduced in magnetically recording the signals. Therefore, erroneous code is prevented from occurring in reproducing the signals.
