Abstract

During a period of a burst signal that controls a color in a video signal, a signal having the reverse phase and double the amplitude of the burst signal is added to superpose the signal on the burst signal by less than some cycles of the burst signal. A processed burst signal thus made is recorded on the magnetic tape. And, when reproducing the magnetic tape, a color signal detection circuit of a TV monitor is not influenced to reproduce a normal picture image. And, the color signal detection circuit of a video tape recorder is influenced to malfunction, which prevents a correct recording. To reproduce a magnetic tape duplicated by the video tape recorder by the TV monitor will present an abnormal picture image. Thus, the invention intends to prevent an unfair duplication, by making the color of the picture image abnormal in the unfair duplication.
