Abstract: In order to prevent delays in error recovery, provided are an FEC packet generation unit configured to generate restoration data packets for restoration of lost data packets by using first data packets, which are data packets forming transmission data and which are transmitted as data packets of a first data stream, and second data packets, which are data packets forming the transmission data and which are transmitted as data packets of a second data stream different from the first data stream, and a packet transmission unit configured to transmit the restoration data packets based on transmissions of the first data packets and the second data packets.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes: storing means for storing audio data and related information corresponding to the audio data; receiving means for acquiring electronic program guide information indicating programs scheduled to be broadcasted; and program selecting means for executing comparison processing for comparing predetermined related information corresponding to predetermined audio data among the audio data and the electronic program guide information and selecting, on the basis of a result of the comparison processing, a predetermined program from the broadcast-scheduled programs indicated by the electronic program guide information.

Abstract: A reproducing apparatus is disclosed. The reproducing apparatus includes a reproducing section, a notifying section, and a notification controlling section. The reproducing section reproduces content data. The notifying section notifies a user that there are content data correlated with content data reproduced by the reproducing section. The notification controlling section determines whether content data correlated with content data reproduced by the reproducing section have been retrieved and controls the notifying section to notify the user that there are the correlated content data when the correlated content data have been retrieved.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus generates, for two or more videos including an overlapping region that overlap each other, overlapping region information that indicates the overlapping region, and transmits the overlapping region information to a display control apparatus that generates a video by concatenating the two or more videos. The display control apparatus obtains the overlapping region information from another apparatus, generates a video by concatenating the two or more videos based on the overlap information, and causes the display unit to display the generated video.

Abstract: A communication apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire image capture information associated with a plurality of image capturing apparatuses, a generation unit configured to generate a playlist in which access information associated with a plurality of pieces of video data captured by the plurality of image capturing apparatuses and the image capture information acquired by the acquisition unit are described, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the playlist generated by the generation unit to another communication apparatus.

Abstract: There is provided a content selection view in which the user can select a content intuitively and easily. When the user places a touch pen in touch with a touch panel in a position corresponding to a position P1 in a map and drags the touch pen along a locus to a position P2 with the touch pen being kept in touch with the touch panel, PD will judge that a grid is still an option. Thereafter, when the user takes the touch pen off the touch panel surface, the PD will select the grid corresponding to the position P2 where the touch pen has finally been in touch with the touch panel. The PD will output not only content data assigned to the selected grid but a sound corresponding to predetermined content data even while the grid is still an option. The present invention is applicable to a portable recorder/player.
