Abstract
A dynamic searching method and apparatus of video contents is disclosed. The dynamic searching apparatus of video contents according to the present invention determines a normal replay section and a fast forward replay section the shot index information with considering current replay location and shot index information and replays the video contents from the current replay location at the determined corresponding speed according to the sections alternatively so as to replay video contents. Here, audio is replayed along with the video in the normal replay section.
Claims19
A dynamic searching method of video contents comprising the steps of:
- (a) determining a normal replay section and a fast forward replay section with considering shot index information and a current replay location;
- and
- (b) replaying the video contents from the current replay location at corresponding speeds according to the determined sections.
A dynamic searching method of video contents comprising the steps of:
- (a) when a dynamic search is requested during a video browsing, determining a normal replay section with considering shot index information and a current replay location of video contents;
