Abstract
Various aspects of a method and system to process audio data are disclosed herein. In accordance with an embodiment, the method includes identification of a source-of-interest (SOI), via a user interface (UI), when video content is played back. The SOI is identified based on one or more parameters. An audio portion of the identified SOI is selectively enhanced when the video content is played back.
Claims20
A method for processing audio data of video content, said method comprising:
- in an electronic device:
- identifying a source-of-interest (SOI) during a playback of said video content, wherein said SOI is identified based on one or more parameters;
- and
- selectively enhancing an audio portion of said identified SOI during said playback of said video content, wherein said audio portion of said identified SOI corresponds to a signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio, wherein said SNR ratio is higher than a pre-determined threshold value.
1 more element
A system for processing audio data at video content, said system comprising:
- one or more circuits in an electronic device being operable to:
- identity a source-of-interest (SOI) during a playback of said video content, wherein said SOI is identified based on one or more parameters;
- and
- selectively enhance an audio portion of said identified SOI during said playback of said video content, wherein said audio portion of said identified SOI corresponds to a signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio, wherein said SNR ratio is higher than a pre-determined threshold value.
1 more element
A method of processing audio data of video content, said method comprising:
- in an electronic device:
- identifying a source-of-interest (SOI) during a playback of said video content, wherein said SOI is identified based on one or more parameters;
- estimating a correlation of an audio portion from said audio data associated with said video content and said identified SOI based on a spatio-temporal audio pattern matching technique;
- and
- selectively enhancing the audio portion of said identified SOI during said playback of said video content.
