摘要:
A quantity of communication burden on a user is to be alleviated, and resetting of a terminal ensuing from user replacement is to take no time or a minimum length of time. To this end, there is provided a user decision unit which has a user list in which users having experience of using the terminal if only once can be referenced and registered as users and controls the resetting of terminal setting information by inquiring about the presence or absence of the user's experience of using the terminal. Further, a mechanism to hold setting information, which would otherwise be initialized after the user is replaced, as a user list to which management numbers which are valid only in the terminal are added in a region separate from the setting information region for terminal users even after the user replacement. This arrangement can dispense with the initialization of setting information for users having experience of using the terminal if only once, and the resetting of setting information, which would otherwise be required at the time of user replacement for every user, can be realized by replacing the setting information in current use with the setting information for users.
摘要:
A system of detecting a motion vector for an object block in a current frame of an orthogonally transformed video with respect to a stored reference frame. The motion victor is detected by: extracting a predetermined pattern of lower frequency components from the object block; orthogonally inverse transform the extracted lower frequency components within the pattern to yield the pattern of pixel data; searching the reference frame for a block having a maximum correlation with the pattern of pixel data; and calculating the motion vector from the object block to the block having a maximum correlation. As an orthogonal transform, DCT (discrete cosine transform) is preferable. Creating a row and a column image comprising sums obtained by adding all the pixels in each column and each row of the object block and applying the above searching and calculating process to the row and the column image enables the motion vector detection from a normal or noncompressed video.

A system is arranged by a service providing apparatus 109 for storing a plurality of contents data 110 and capable of transmitting the contents data via network interfaces 116a/116b and a communication path 112; and also a service relaying apparatus 101 for producing compressed moving picture data having a high image quality from still picture data, and capable of transmitting the compressed moving picture data via network interfaces 115a/115b and another communication path 111 to a'reproducing terminal 106. As a result, desirable contents data can be displayed by the reproducing terminal which owns a capability of displaying the compressed moving picture data, but does not own such a capability of displaying the desirable contents data.

A multimedia title including sources of plural data-types such as a motion picture, still picture and text data, presentation methods of respective sources, and the data-types is edited in every frame, so that a video signal is created. Based on a scenario, the video signal is coded adaptively to respective data-types of each source. As a result, calculation volume is reduced and picture quality is improved.

摘要:
The method involves performing intra frame coding of a non-compressed picture frame to produce one compresses picture frame which is then decoded to produce one reference picture frame. Inter frame coding is performed between the non-compresses picture frame and another reference picture frame to produce another compressed picture frame (615). The frame (615) is decoded to produce a third reference picture frame. An independent claim is also included for a stepwise image quality complementary type coding apparatus.

摘要:
A picture coding apparatus contains a rate control unit 100, an image buffer 200, an orthogonal transformation unit 300, a quantizing unit 400, a variable length coding unit 500, a motion predicting unit 600, a coding unit 700, and an output buffer 800. The rate control unit 100 allocates a target code amount to each of pictures, and transfers a quantizing value 100a which is determined by a code amount to the quantizing unit 400. This target code amount is calculated by adding a reference target code amount to a correction value. The correction value is calculated based on a difference between a predetermined target value and an actual value of a remaining coding picture amount of the output buffer 800.
