摘要:
A video playback apparatus informs a user of scene change. The video playback apparatus includes a feature extraction unit to extract feature scenes having audio/video content and a playback unit to replay feature scenes that have been extracted by the feature extraction unit. The playback unit further includes an identification information output unit that outputs information that identifies a feature scene being replayed.

A silent detector detects a silent segment based on output of an audio signal of contents. A determination unit determines a segment, in which the time length of each silent segment is essentially a multiplication of the predetermined time, as a first content segment regarding continuous plural silent segments that are detected in the silent detector, to determine a segment in which the time length of each silent segment is not essentially a multiplication of the predetermined time, as a second content segment, and to extract a silent segment between the first content segment and the second content segment as a changing segment. A playback controller sets a playback position of contents to the position before a predetermined time from the changing segment when a first action instruction is received.

An aspect of the invention provides a commercial detection apparatus for detecting commercials that includes a silent detector configured to detect a silent segment based on the strength of the audio signal output in content, and a determination unit configured to determine a sound segment as a commercial if three or more silent segments are detected essentially within a set time span, and if the sound segment is found between two of the three silent segments.

A video recording and reproducing apparatus includes: an audio signal decoder configured to acquire an audio signal from an inputted audio-video signal; a recording section configured to record the inputted audio-video signal; a peak time point detecting section configured to detect, as a peak time point, a time point having a power value, which satisfies a predetermined condition, selected from among power values in the acquired audio signal; a digest scene extracting section configured to select a predetermined number of peak time points from among the detected peak time points, and to extract, as a digest scene, each piece of the audio-video signal within a predetermined digest scene cutting time period set to each of the selected peak time points in advance; and a reproduction controlling section configured to reproduce the extracted digest scenes.

Characteristic amounts are calculated from each of multiple musical piece contents, and then time points when the characteristic amounts exceed a threshold are detected as cut points. Information on the cut point concerning each of the multiple musical piece contents is stored. Based on the stored information on the cut point, a judgment is made as to whether the multiple musical piece contents match each other.

Provided is a sound recording/playback device (1) that records onto a recording medium (5) sound data captured by a microphone (6), pulls the sound data from the recording medium (5), and plays said sound data. The sound recording/playback device is provided with a discrimination means (21, 22, 23, 24) which discriminates between human sound and non-sound audio. Upon recording, the device records the start position and end position of human sound, as determined by the discrimination means (21, 22, 23, 24), and upon playback, the data between the afore-mentioned start position and the subsequent end position is extracted and outputted.

Provided is a recording or playback apparatus capable of separating a musical piece from an audio including the musical piece and a speech through a simple arithmetic process. A cut point detector detects, as a cut point, a time point at which an audio signal level or an amount of change in the audio signal level is not lower than a predetermined value. A frequency characteristic amount calculator calculates a characteristic amount in a frequency area of the audio signal only at each cut point and in its proximity. A cut point judging unit judges an attribute of the cut point on a basis of the calculated characteristic amount of the frequency. A music section detector detects a start and end points of each music section on a basis of the attribute and an interval between sampling points.
