Abstract: The present invention provides an image sensing apparatus including an encoding unit for converting video from an image sensing unit so as to generate stream data, and store the stream data in a buffer unit, a control unit for controlling the encoding unit, in a case where, in a fixed time recording mode for recording for a fixed time in response to an instruction to start recording, a second instruction to start recording is issued before the fixed time has elapsed since a first instruction to start recording was issued, to store in the buffer unit stream data that lasts for the fixed time corresponding to the first instruction to start recording, and stream data that lasts for the fixed time corresponding to the second instruction to start recording, and a recording unit for recording each piece of stream data stored in the buffer unit on a recording medium.

Abstract: An image capturing apparatus is able to record a moving image in a first image capturing mode or a second image capturing mode. In the first image capturing mode, the apparatus starts recording of a moving image signal in response to an instruction to start recording and stops recording of the moving image signal in response to an instruction to stop recording. In the second image capturing mode, the apparatus starts recording of a moving image signal in response to the instruction to start recording, and automatically stops recording of the moving image signal when a predetermined period elapses after recording of the moving image signal starts. The apparatus controls so as to extract a moving image signal of the predetermined period from a moving image signal recorded in the first image capturing mode on a recording medium, and to record the extracted moving image signal on a recording medium.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a recording unit configured to record a file on a recording medium, a management unit configured to store the file recorded on the recording medium in a folder to manage the file, and a control unit configured to control the management unit to move a file which is different from a file to be divided and is stored in a folder which stores the file to be divided, to a folder other than the folder which stores the file to be divided according to an instruction to divide the file recorded on the recording medium and then store a new file created by the division in the folder which stores the file to be divided.

Abstract: Only images captured in a snapshot movie capture mode are extracted and are continuously reproduced. Also, second audio data prepared separately from first audio data that is recorded during image capturing is reproduced in place of the first audio data. Accordingly, an effect of change in images at predetermined intervals at a good tempo can be obtained. Furthermore, an interrupt of audio data at change of images can be prevented, so that discomfort felt by a user can be decreased.

Abstract: A reproducing apparatus arranged to reproduce a moving image signal of a scene from a recording medium, set one of a first reproduction mode for reproducing one scene selected from the moving image signal of a selected one scene and a second reproduction mode for reproducing the moving image signals according to a playlist, convert the moving image signal recorded on the recording medium into a format designated by a transmission destination of the moving image signal, and effect control in response to a conversion instruction such that, in the first reproduction mode, the moving image signal of the one scene is divided on a unit basis of predetermined time related to an upper limit time designated by the transmission destination of the moving image signal and in the second reproduction mode, the moving image signals of the plurality of scenes are combined and the combined moving image signal is divided on the predetermined time basis.

Abstract: Information regarding frames of a moving image, which are included in a predetermined segment that includes the current playback position and a segment that has not been played back yet, is displayed in a time-series indicator region along with the moving image that is being played back. Furthermore, a segment indicator that indicates the start position and end position of a fixed segment that includes the current playback position is displayed in the time-series indicator. For example, in the case where moving image data at a position corresponding to the segment indicator is generated as a separated moving image file in accordance with a moving image copy instruction that has been given, the user can become aware ahead of time what kind of moving image file would be generated if such an instruction were given.

Also, second audio data prepared separately from first audio data that is recorded during image capturing is reproduced in place of the first audio data. Accordingly, an effect of change in images at predetermined intervals at a good tempo can be obtained. Furthermore, an interrupt of audio data at change of images can be prevented, so that discomfort felt by a user can be decreased.
