Abstract: A pre-processing method for video data playback and a playback interface apparatus are provided, wherein a video receiver module receives a video data with clips, the clips corresponding to numbers in first and second time-sequences, and wherein a display module creates a corresponding GUI component for each clip and arranges the GUI components in the playback interface. When two clips consecutive in the first time-sequence are not consecutive in the second, the display module places their corresponding GUI components separately or distinguishably. By discerning the several time-sequences of the video data, this invention ensures random access of data while being visually intuitive and uniform design-wise.

When the focusing values of the first and second digital images are different, a hint sound played by an audio output section is adjusted.

Abstract: An image recording system, an image recorder and a data accessing method are provided. Some of memory blocks of a flash memory are set as first blocks, and the other memory blocks are set as second blocks. When a target image file received from a capturing unit of an image reorder is being written into the first blocks, a control unit of the flash memory detects whether the first block into which a processing unit of the image recorder tries to write a piece of data of the target image file is faulty. When the first block is faulty, the control unit selects normal one of the second blocks and then writes the piece of the data of the target image file into the selected second block instead of the first block.

Abstract: A de-warping processing method for digital images includes the following steps. A first image window is segmented into a plurality of first blocks. A second image window is segmented into a plurality of second blocks according to locations and an amount of the first blocks. A coordinate transformation parameter is calculated by a group of first vertex coordinate values of the first block and a group of second vertex coordinate values of the corresponding second block. Each of coordinate values of the first block is transformed into an estimated coordinate value of the corresponding second block according to the coordinate transformation parameter. A pixel content value is obtained from the second image window according to each of the estimated coordinate values, and is written into a pixel with the corresponding coordinate value in the first block. All the first blocks are processed for outputting a first image.
