Abstract: A method and system for composing a video of a course of actions along a track in an area monitored by a plurality of video cameras. A first sequence of user inputs defining the track is received. Each user input in the first sequence is associated with a time stamp and is received as an indication of a position in a map of the area being monitored. For each user input in the first sequence, video recordings from those that have a field-of-view covering the position indicated by the user input are collected. The collected video recordings are recorded in a time period starting at the time stamp associated with the user input and ending at a time stamp associated with a next user input in the first sequence or when an indication to stop the collecting is received. A video material is then composed from the collected video recordings.

Abstract: A method for streaming a live video stream in a system comprising a video camera generating the live video stream, a video recorder, and a video. The method comprises: at the video server, receiving, from a client device, a request for the live video stream from the video camera; transmitting from the video server, a push trigger to the video camera, the push trigger instructing the video camera to push the live video stream to the video recorder; upon receiving the push trigger, initiating a push of the live video stream from the video camera to the video recorder; pushing the live video stream from the video camera to the video recorder; pulling, by the video server, the live video stream from the video recorder; and transmitting, by the video server, the live video stream to the client device.

Abstract: A video processing device which generates motion metadata for encoded video comprises a decoder configured to decode frames of an encoded video into image frames; and a processing circuitry configured to execute a motion meta data deriving operation on image frames decoded by the decoder. The motion meta data deriving operation comprises: a dividing function configured to divide a current image frame into a mesh of cells, wherein each cell comprises multiple image pixels, a comparison function configured to determine a metric of change for each cell by comparing pixel data of each cell with pixel data of a correspondingly positioned cell of a previous and/or subsequent image frame, and a storing function configured to store the metric of change for each cell as the motion metadata related to the current image frame.
