Abstract
The invention relates to a substitution method for replacing, in an audiovisual content, a part of the content defined by a time range with an audiovisual substitution sequence, the method being characterized in that the substitution sequence is representative of the part to be replaced. The invention also concerns a device and a terminal implementing the invention.
Claims9
A method for replacing, in an audiovisual content, a part of the content defined by a time range with an audiovisual substitution sequence, wherein the method comprises acts of:
- analyzing the part of the content defined by the time range, wherein start and end instants of the time range are identified by recognition of at least one keyword in an audio component of the audiovisual content,
- generating a substitution audiovisual sequence on the basis of the analyzed part of the content, the substitution sequence comprising at least one image that contains a message composed of representative keywords of the substituted part of said content,
- replacing, in the audiovisual content, the part of the content defined by the time range by the generated sequence, so that the generated sequence is played back in place of the replaced sequence when playing the audiovisual content, and
- storing the replaced sequence so that said replaced sequence can be played back by a user interaction on a hypertext link inserted in the substitution sequence, said hypertext link pointing to a storage location of the replaced sequence.
A device for replacing, in an audiovisual content, a part of the content defined by a time range with an audiovisual substitution sequence, the device comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon;
- and
- a processing unit configured by the instructions to perform acts of:
- analyzing the part of the content defined by the time range, wherein start and end instants of the time range are identified by recognition of at least one keyword in an audio component of the audiovisual content,
- generating a substitution audiovisual sequence on the basis of the analyzed part of the content, the substitution sequence is comprising at least one image that contains a message composed of representative keywords of the substituted part of said content,
- replacing, in the audiovisual content, the part of the content defined by the time range by the generated sequence, so that the generated sequence is played back in place of the replaced sequence when playing the audiovisual content, and
- storing the replaced sequence so that said replaced sequence can be played back by a user interaction on a hypertext link inserted in the substitution sequence, said hypertext link pointing to a storage location of the replaced sequence.
A non-transitory computer readable memory on which there is recorded a computer program comprising instructions for executing, when the instructions are executed by a processor, a method for replacing, in an audiovisual content, a part of the content defined by a time range with an audiovisual substitution sequence, wherein the method comprises acts of:
- analyzing the part of the content defined by the time range, wherein start and end instants of the time range are identified by recognition of at least one keyword in an audio component of the audiovisual content,
- generating a substitution sequence, the substitution sequence comprising at least one image that contains a message composed of representative keywords of the substituted part of said content,
- replacing the part of the content defined by the time range by the generated sequence, and
- storing the replaced sequence so that said replaced sequence can be played back by a user interaction on a hypertext link inserted in the substitution sequence, said hypertext link pointing to a storage location of the replaced sequence.
