Abstract: A control apparatus comprises: a storage unit configured to store a plurality of profiles corresponding to a distribution setting for each of a plurality of image capturing units; a generation unit configured to integrate the plurality of profiles and generate a virtual profile; and a distribution unit configured to distribute a plurality of videos as a single stream, based on the virtual profile, the plurality of videos being obtained from the plurality of image capturing units. When the virtual profile becomes an invalid configuration during distribution by the distribution unit, the generation unit updates the virtual profile to a valid configuration while maintaining an encoding setting included in the plurality of profiles, and the distribution unit continues the distribution of the stream based on the virtual profile updated.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus capable of audio communication with a client apparatus in an established session with the client apparatus, the imaging apparatus establishing a session with the client apparatus, accepting a request for establishment of the session from a user, transmitting, in a case where the request for establishment of the session is accepted, a notification compliant with the Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF) standard to the client apparatus as a notification that requests establishment of the session.

Abstract: An image pickup signal processing apparatus includes a video processing unit for processing an image pickup signal acquired from an image pickup unit based on a predetermined video setting to generate video data, a recording unit for recording the video data based on a predetermined video recording setting, a control unit for performing recording of the video data by using a first recording job that corresponds to the video setting and the video recording setting, and a receiving unit for receiving a change request to change the video setting, wherein the control unit performs the recording of the video data by using a second recording job that corresponds to the video setting that has been changed based on the change request, which is different from the first recording job, based on the change request received by the receiving unit.

Abstract: An image capturing apparatus is provided and includes a driving unit configured to drive the image capturing apparatus and change an imaging region by an image capturing unit; a tracking unit configured to track a subject included in the imaging region in a captured video obtained by the image capturing unit; a communication unit configured to receive a control command from an external apparatus; and a control unit configured to control at least one of the driving unit and the tracking unit based on a control command received by the communication unit. When a control command includes a change request to change an imaging region and a tracking request to track a subject and there is an inconsistency in a setting value group of the change request, the control unit does not use at least one setting value included in the setting value group.

Abstract: A communication apparatus determines, in a case where connection with an external apparatus is disconnected, whether the disconnection is performed by the external apparatus. In a case where reconnection to a network is performed after connection to the external apparatus is disconnected and it is determined that the disconnection is not performed by the external apparatus, a communication unit is controlled to maintain a limitation for communication with another external apparatus and to transmit a reconnection notification to the external apparatus by unicast. In a case where reconnection to the network is performed after connection to the external apparatus is disconnected and it is determined that the disconnection is performed by the external apparatus, the communication unit is controlled to communicate with the other external apparatus without the limitation.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes a storage unit that stores a profile that is referred to in control of the imaging apparatus and that includes an area type of a captured image to be controlled; a transmitting unit that transmits a setting value that is involved in a process to change an area of the captured image and that does not depend on a method for the changing process and an identifier for identifying the setting value to an external apparatus; a receiving unit that receives an instruction to add the setting value to the profile with the identifier of the setting value from the external apparatus; and an adding unit that adds the setting value indicated in the adding instruction to the profile.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a first network interface configured to function as an interface with a first network; a second network interface configured to function as an interface with a second network that is different from the first network; and a processing unit having a first mode in which multicast distribution of an image acquired by an image capturing unit is performed via one of the first network interface and the second network interface and multicast distribution is not performed via the other network interface, and a second mode in which multicast distribution is performed in a different form from the first mode, wherein the processing unit, upon the first network interface or the second network interface accepting a request for multicast distribution, selects one of the first mode and the second mode.

Abstract: A communication apparatus capable of executing, while the communication apparatus is connected to a network, communication for allowing another apparatus connected to the network to recognize the communication apparatus and of limiting the communication is provided. The communication apparatus maintains the limitation when reconnection to the network is performed after connection to a communication partner apparatus via the network is disconnected regardless of control by the communication partner apparatus while the limitation is imposed.
