Abstract
To provide a technology of properly specifying a process target frame in a dynamic image in accordance with a user's instruction. A frame specifying device plays a dynamic image, receives, when a user performs an operation of instructing execution of a process about a partial scene in the dynamic image, an instruction signal based on the user's operation, and specifies, as triggered by receiving the instruction signal, a frame under the play or a frame distanced by a predetermined length of time from the frame under the play as the process target frame when receiving the instruction signal in the frames constructing the dynamic image.
Claims20
A frame specifying method executed by a computer, comprising:
- playing a dynamic image;
- receiving an instruction signal based on an operation of instructing execution of a process about a partial scene in the dynamic image by a user;
- and
- specifying, as triggered by receiving the instruction signal, a frame under the play when receiving the instruction signal as a process target frame in the frames constructing the dynamic image, and if a keyword character does not exist in the process target frame, specifying any one of a first frame and a second frame oppositely distanced to each other by a predetermined length of time from the process target frame;
- wherein the predetermined length of time is determined based on a time-lag between the user's operation and receiving the instruction signal.
A frame specifying device comprising:
- a playing unit to play a dynamic image;
- an instruction receiving unit to receive an instruction signal based on an operation of instructing execution of a process about a partial scene in the dynamic image by a user;
- and
- a frame specifying unit to specify, as triggered by receiving the instruction signal, a frame under the play when receiving the instruction signal as a process target frame in the frames constructing the dynamic image, and if a keyword character does not exist in the process target frame, to specify any one of a first frame and a second frame oppositely distanced to each other by a predetermined length of time from the process target frame;
- wherein the predetermined length of time is determined based on a time-lag between the user's operation and receiving the instruction signal.
A storage medium readable by a computer, tangible embodying a program of instructions executable by the computer to perform method steps comprising:
- playing a dynamic image;
- receiving an instruction signal based on an operation of instructing execution of a process about a partial scene in the dynamic image by a user;
- and
- specifying, as triggered by receiving the instruction signal, a frame under the play when receiving the instruction signal as a process target frame in the frames constructing the dynamic image, and if a keyword character does not exist in the process target frame, specifying any one of a first frame and a second frame oppositely distanced to each other by a predetermined length of time from the process target frame;
- wherein the predetermined length of time is determined based on a time-lag between the user's operation and receiving the instruction signal.
