Method and apparatus for signal processing for controlling a digital audio source may include retrieving a time code signal from a rotating recording medium. The time code signal may be a sum of a binary signal and a sinusoidal pilot signal in the audible range, and the binary signal has a symbol frequency less than a frequency of the pilot signal. The time code signal may be filtered to recover the pilot signal and the binary signal. An estimated speed of rotation of the recording medium may be determined from a recovered pilot signal, and an estimated position may be determined from a recovered binary signal, for controlling the digital audio source.

A method and an arrangement for distributing processor load in a data processing system while executing of block-based computing instructions, as well as a corresponding computer program and a corresponding computer-readable storage medium, which can be used to uniformly distribute the processor load in processors for periodically occurring computing operations. The block-based computing instructions are divided into blocks. Each block requires a number of time-sequential incoming input values. The number can be predetermined for each block. A particular area of application is the field of digital processing of multimedia signals, such as audio signals, video signals, and the like. For distributing the processor load in a data processing system during execution of block-based computing instructions, the operations of the computing instruction to be performed in a block are divided into at least two computing steps, and the computing steps within a block are sequentially processed.
