  • Patent number: 10897655
    Abstract: To make it possible to easily use video data of raw data of a high frame rate input from a single-chip camera in a server system that is different from an AV server system in which an AV server itself is included. First AV clip data is obtained by performing a compression encoding process to raw data of a high frame rate input from a single-chip camera and is written in a storage. The raw data of the high frame rate is obtained by reading the first AV clip data from the storage and processing a compression decoding process on the first AV clip data, video data of a high frame rate is obtained by performing a demosaic process on the raw data, and second AV clip data is obtained by performing a compression encoding process on the video data and is written in the storage. The second AV clip data is read from the storage and transmitted to a second AV server system that is different from a first AV server system in which an AV server itself is included.

  • Patent number: 10887636
    Abstract: To increase the number of IO ports and to increase the storage amount easily. An AV server system includes: a plurality of AV servers including internet protocol (IP) input-output ports for connecting to other AV servers, the IP input-output ports being independent from input-output ports to an outside of the system; a client controller configured to control the plurality of AV servers; a manager storing information relevant to AV clip data recorded in the plurality of AV servers and AV clip data input into the plurality of AV servers; and a frame synchronization unit configured to perform frame synchronization between the plurality of AV servers.

  • Publication number: 20180300052
    Abstract: This operation input apparatus includes: a display unit; a touch sensor panel disposed on a display screen; and a control circuit that performs control to display a rotational operation element on the display screen, determines the number of operation points according to a user's touch with respect to the rotational operation element on the basis of an output of the touch sensor panel, and performs, on the basis of the determined number of operation points, switching between a first operation mode for generating a jump command for jumping a reproduction position of information that is a reproduction target by a distance depending on an operation rotational angle of the rotational operation element and a second operation mode for generating a fast-forward command for fast-forward-reproducing the information at a speed depending on the operation rotational angle of the rotational operation element.

  • Patent number: 8924397
    Abstract: An information processing device includes a file-information acquirer and a conversion-management information generator. The file-information acquirer is configured to acquire file information that is information regarding a file to be subjected to conversion processing for converting a clip format. The conversion-management-information generator generates conversion management information that manages an identity of a clip created by the conversion processing performed on a clip to which the file corresponding to the file information belongs, by using the file information acquired by the file-information acquirer.

  • Publication number: 20110080941
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: on the basis of management information of a transcoding system of transcoding processing transcoding a format of a clip, an image generation mechanism generating a family tree being an image representing the clip by a node and representing a relationship between the clips on the transcoding processing by a link; and a display control mechanism displaying the family tree generated by the image generation mechanism on a display screen.

  • Publication number: 20110082870
    Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus including: an input metadata table acquisition unit which acquires an input metadata table which is a list of items included in a metadata before format conversion; an output metadata table acquisition unit which acquires an output metadata table which is a list of items included in a metadata after the format conversion; and a user map template generation unit which generates a user map template which is a template of a conversion pattern of each item of the metadata, which is used for a conversion process of converting the format of the metadata by performing linking between the items included in the input metadata table acquired by the input metadata table acquisition unit and the items included in the output metadata table acquired by the output metadata table acquisition unit.
