A home multimedia storage system includes an analog storing part for
storing analog signal from a displayer in a video tape and playing the
stored analog signal, and an analog/digital converting part for
converting an analog signal from the displayer into a digital signal. A
digital storing part is provided to store the digital signal converted by
the analog/digital converting part and playing the stored digital signal.
A digital/analog converting part also provided to convert the digital
data output from the digital storing part into an analog play signal. A
controller selects and transmits one of the analog signal stored in the
analog storing part and the digital signal stored in the digital storing
part to the displayer during a sound/image playback operation.
