摘要： An information processing apparatus, an information processing method, a recording medium, and a program for allowing communicating parties at remote locations to view the same displayed content and to point to desired positions on the displayed image of the content. A user A and a user B viewing themselves and the content on a cross-faded mode may point to desired positions on the content image with their fingertips. Motion vectors of the fingertips are then detected in particular areas extracted from the image in a manner containing the detected positions. The detected motion vectors are translated into a pointer for the user A and a pointer for the user B, the pointers being alpha-blended with the content image. The two pointers extracted from a single image are associated with the users A and B by use of different Cyber Codes (2D code) attached to the fingertips of each user, for example. This invention applies illustratively to communication apparatuses for permitting communication between remote locations.

摘要： The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus and method, a recording medium, and a program which make it possible for persons at remote places to view the same content in synchronism with each other. For example, if a user A performs an operation for playback starting of a content at time t1, then a line delay when operation information is transmitted is taken into consideration to determine reproduction starting scheduled time t2, and operation information representing that an operation for playback starting is performed and also representing reproduction starting scheduled time t2 and a playback position of the content at time t2 is produced and transmitted to an user X side. Then, the user A side starts playback of the content at time t2. Also on the user X side, when the reproduction starting scheduled time t2 represented by the received operation information comes, playback of the content is started from the playback position of the content represented by the received operation information. Accordingly, after time t2, a state wherein synchronous playback of the content is performed continues. The present invention can be applied, for example, to a communication apparatus between remote places.

摘要： The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus and method, a recording medium, and a program by which a content viewed at the same time by speakers at remote places and images and sound of the speakers are recorded in such a state that the images and sound of the speakers can be reproduced. At step S11, synthesis information including parameters relating to setting of a synthesis situation of an image and sound of a content and images and sound of users and information representative of standard time at present is produced and stored. At step S13, recording of the content being currently played back is started with the standard time added to the content. At step S15, recording of real-time data of the user A and so forth is started with the standard time added to the real-time data. At step S17, recording of real-time data of the user X is started with the standard time added to the real-time data. At step S18, it is decided whether or not the setting for synthesis is changed, and if the setting is changed, then the synthesis information is re-produced and stored at step S19. The present invention can be applied, for example, to communication apparatus for communication between remote places.
