Abstract: A content data processing method generates a first-time code indicating an elapsed time from a start of the live event, generates first content data from first data, which includes the one of the audio or video data, received from the live event by adding, to the first data, the first-time code with a first start time and a first end time associated with the first data, and generates a second-time code indicating a duration associated with the first data reflecting the first start time and the first end time.

Abstract: A sound signal output method of outputting sound to a plurality of areas comprises obtaining a sound signal of a sound source, receiving a setting of reproduction information indicating whether or not to output the sound signal of the above-mentioned sound source to each of the plurality of areas where the above-mentioned sound signal is to be output, and outputting the above-mentioned reproduction information and the above-mentioned sound signal, or reproducing the above-mentioned sound signal based on the above-mentioned reproduction information.

Abstract: A live data distribution method obtains information on a sound source according to sound generated at the first venue, and information on space reverberation, as distribution data, distributes the distribution data to the second venue, and renders the distribution data and providing sound according to the distribution data at the second venue.

Abstract: A live data distribution method obtains first sound source information according to sound of a first sound source generated at a first location of the first venue and position information of the first sound source, and second sound source information according to a second sound source including an ambient sound generated at a second location of the first venue, as distribution data, distributes the distributed data to the second venue, and renders the distribution data and providing first sound of the first sound source having been performed with localization processing based on the position information of the first sound source, and second sound of the second sound source, at the second venue.

Abstract: An information processing method includes: receiving first space information including a first coordinate system of one of a logical space or a physical space, and second space information including a second coordinate system of the other of the logical space or the physical space; receiving first sound localization information indicating a position where a sound image is to be localized in the first coordinate system; and transforming the first sound localization information into second sound localization information indicating a position where the sound image is to be localized in the second coordinate system.

Abstract: An audio signal processor includes a first block including a first input interface and a first output interface, and a second block including a second input interface and a second output interface. The audio signal processor further includes a routing matrix that is connected to each of the first input interface, the first output interface, the second input interface, and the second output interface. The routing matrix outputs a signal inputted from each of the first output interface and the second output interface, to each of the first input interface and the second input interface.
