Abstract
A first input signal, which has a first playback sequence, is resequenced based upon a characteristic of a second input signal. The resequencing occurs analyzing the characteristic in the second input signal, and modifying the first playback sequence of the first input signal based upon the analysis of the characteristic to generate a second playback sequence. Finally, a third signal is output using the second playback sequence.
Claims29
A processor implemented method for automatically modifying a video sequence, the method comprising:
- inputting a first video frame sequence;
- analyzing an audio signal for selected characteristics;
- and
- outputting a second video frame sequence comprising the frames that make up the first video frame sequence in a modified playback sequence or frame rate, wherein the modifications are based on the analysis of the selected characteristics of the audio signal.
A computer readable medium storing computer executable instructions for implementing a method on a device, comprising:
- receiving information defining a plurality of video frames, and characteristics comprising a presentation sequence for the video frames, and a preferred rate at which the frames are to be presented;
- detecting characteristics of an attribute of an audio signal;
- and
- delivering a video signal comprising video frames from the received information presented, the video signal having characteristics derived from the characteristics defined by the information, at least one characteristic of the delivered video signal modified based on the detected characteristics of the attribute of the audio signal.
A system comprising:
- a processor for receiving a first input comprising a first sequence of video frames, and a second input comprising an audio signal, the processor further performing an analysis of the second input and outputting a new sequence of video frames, the new sequence dependent on results of the analysis of the second input;
- a display for displaying the new sequence of video frames;
- and
- an audio presentation device for outputting the audio signal in conjunction with the new sequence of video frames.
