Abstract:
A device for controlling frame rate of an image signal on a motion image is provided. The device contains a manipulation portion that a user manipulates to select a desired variation of the frame rate change over time from plural variations thereof, and a control portion that controls generation of a frame rate control signal for bring the frame rate automatically to the variation of the frame rate change selected by the manipulation portion.
Abstract:
An electronic apparatus includes a first apparatus that carries out a plurality of functions, and a second apparatus that is coupled to the first apparatus. The second apparatus comprises a control unit that includes a processing unit for supplying commands to the first apparatus for carrying out the selected one of the plurality of functions: a display driver for displaying on a display a screen utilized to select one of the plurality of functions; and a memory slot operable to receive a memory stick that includes a key file for activating at least one other function. When the key file is uninstalled, the plurality of functions executable by the first apparatus include basic functions, and alternatively when the key file is installed, the plurality of executable functions include both the basic functions and at least one other function upon the processing unit validating authorization data stored on the key file.
Abstract:
A tag information display control apparatus disclosed allows information regarding a particular partial region in moving pictures to be displayed on a screen only by clicking the partial region. Movement of a pointer in a screen by a viewer of a main image is accepted, and the position of the pointer in the screen is acquired. A key image reproduced in synchronism with the main image is referred to decide whether the pointer is within a key region. Region identification information set with regard to the key region is read out when the pointer is within the key region. Index information with link information is referred to based on the region identification information together with time information of the key image to read out corresponding link information. Related information is acquired from a linking destination specified with the link information and is displayed.
Abstract:
There is provided a recording and reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing data on and from a recording medium with a sequential access system. The apparatus includes a connection unit configured to connect a network, a processor configured to mount a disk apparatus, to reproduce data from the recording medium, to convert the reproduced data into files, to write the files in the disk apparatus based on receiving first information via a network that instructs the recording and reproducing apparatus to import data recorded on the recording medium into the disk apparatus, to read the files from the disk apparatus, and to record data converted from the read files on the recording medium based on receiving second information via a network that instructs the recording and reproducing apparatus to write the files in the disk apparatus on the recording medium.
Abstract:
A reproduction apparatus includes: a reproduction unit configured to reproduce, from a recording medium that records a video signal, the video signal; a first GUI supplying unit configured to supply first GUI data to a terminal apparatus connected via a network, the first GUI data being data for causing a user to select an arbitrary scene in the reproduced video signal and color modulation information applied to the scene; and a metadata processing unit configured to perform color modulation of the selected scene with the selected color modulation information to thereby create an image as a snapshot, and to store metadata in a server apparatus connected via the network, the metadata including access information necessary to access the snapshot.
Abstract:
A tag information production apparatus is disclosed which can apply tag information to a main image through a realistic amount of work. A time information acquisition section acquires time information of a main image selected on a working screen, and a key region setting section sets a key region at a position corresponding to a partial region in the main image specified arbitrarily by an operator. An identification information application section applies, to the set key region, region identification information which allows identification between the key region and a peripheral region. A key image production section produces a key image to which time information same as the time information of the main image is applied and in which the region identification information is applied to the key region set through the working screen.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a production apparatus for index information with link information. The apparatus includes a database in which a corresponding relationship between region identification information applied to a key region which provides a partial region in a main image specified arbitrarily by an operator and link information for accessing to related information of the partial region is listed. The apparatus further includes an information embedding section configured to refer to said database to embed, into index information in which a corresponding relationship between the region identification information applied to the key region and time information is listed, the corresponding link information.
