Abstract: An information processing apparatus capable of reducing the burden of user's operation for sharing uploaded images, in a case where image upload destinations set by the users using their own devices are different. The apparatus includes a device detection section that detects a device that holds image information, a device communication section that communicates with the detected device, and a server communication that communicates with a plurality of servers via a communication network. Server information indicative of an image upload destination set for each detected device is acquired via the device communication section. Image information held by each device is acquired via the device communication section. The acquired image information is uploaded to the servers corresponding to the server information.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus obtains moving image data having a pixel array of a Bayer structure, transmits the obtained moving image data in accordance with a transmission method of transmitting image data having a pixel array different from the Bayer structure and auxiliary data indicating transparency of a plurality of pieces of color data included in the image data by using a plurality of channels, and controls image data of predetermined one of a plurality of colors where the number of pixels corresponding to the predetermined color is larger than that of other color of the plurality of colors, by using a channel for transmitting the auxiliary data.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus obtains information of an effective pixel of an image pickup element and information of a pixel on the periphery thereof, sets a position where image data of the peripheral pixel is multiplexed in accordance with a transmission method, generates a data stream by multiplexing image data of the effective pixel and the image data of the peripheral pixel in accordance with the set multiplexing position and the transmission method, and multiplexes information on the set multiplexing position and information on the peripheral pixel area to the data stream.

Abstract: A scenario editing apparatus which generates and edits scenario data to be referred at an image capturing, comprises: a first recording unit which records first scenario data appended with identification numbers for respective captured contents; a read-out unit which reads out image data captured with reference to the first scenario data and identification numbers for the respective captured contents; a selection unit which selects image data to be re-captured; a generation unit which generates second scenario data to be re-captured while reproducing the selected image data; and a second recording unit which records the generated second scenario data.

Abstract: A list of moving image data is displayed using preset representative images. When a predetermined person is selected in response to a user operation and a frame containing the predetermined person exists in moving image data, the list is displayed using a representative image generated from the frame containing the predetermined person, in place of the preset representative image.
