  • Patent number: 7603024
    Abstract: An audio/video data storing and searching apparatus is provided, which stores audio/video data including additional information of a user desired program, to thereby perform an easy searching. For this purpose, the present invention decodes a transport stream (TS) packet and reads additional information with respect to a user desired audio/video packet from program specific information (PSI), and inserts and stores the read result in a particular region of the audio/video packet and parses the additional information to perform a searching. Thus, the audio/video data storing apparatus extracts additional information, inserts the extracted additional information into a particular region, and stores resultant audio/video data. As a result, the audio/video data storing apparatus can reduce a capacity of a storage medium which is used for storing user desired audio/video data.

  • Patent number: 7457471
    Abstract: In a method of adaptively encoding input image data of a motion image in accordance with a temporal complexity of the motion image, and an apparatus therefore, the temporal complexity of the input image data is calculated. Next, an original frame rate of the input image data is converted into a converted frame rate based on the calculated temporal complexity. Thereafter, the input image data whose frame rate has been converted is encoded, and the encoding data of the encoded image data is controlled so that the encoded image data has information on the converted frame rate. Accordingly, the input image data is encoded at different frame rates in accordance with the temporal complexity of the input image data. Consequently, the encoded input image data is efficiently stored.
