The information processing apparatus which plays video sent from a image capturing apparatus, comprises a list requesting unit which sends a request for segment list to the image capturing apparatus to acquire the segment list, a determination unit that determines a segment to be requested among the segments indicated in the acquired segment list, a first segment requesting unit that sends a request for the determined segment to the image capturing apparatus, a first segment acquisition unit that acquires the requested segment, and a playing unit that plays the acquired segment, wherein the list requesting unit sends a request for a latest segment list to the image capturing apparatus, whenever the segment is acquired a predetermined number of times by the first segment acquisition unit, and the determination unit determines a segment to be requested, based on the latest segment list.
An information processing apparatus that has a communication unit for communicating with an image capturing apparatus and plays video data captured by the image capturing apparatus by sequentially acquiring segments, which are each a portion of the video data, said apparatus comprising:
A method for controlling an information processing apparatus that has a communication unit configured to communicate with an image capturing apparatus and plays video data captured by the image capturing apparatus by sequentially acquiring segments, which are each a portion of the video data, comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable storing medium storing a program which, when executed on a computer, causes that computer to perform a method for controlling an information processing apparatus that has a communication unit configured to communicate with an image capturing apparatus and plays video data captured by the image capturing apparatus by sequentially acquiring segments, which are each a portion of the video data, the method comprising:

Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, an image capturing apparatus, and a control method for the same.
Description of the Related Art
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an exemplary configuration of a camera 1000 to which a first embodiment is applicable.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an exemplary configuration of a terminal apparatus 2000 to which the first embodiment is applicable.
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a communication sequence in a communication system according to the first embodiment.
Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail in accordance with the accompanying drawings.
FIGS. 1 and 2 show exemplary configurations of a camera 1000 serving as an image capturing apparatus and a terminal apparatus 2000 serving as an information processing apparatus that displays video received from the camera 1000, the camera 1000 and the terminal apparatus 2000 being constituent members of a video processing system of a first embodiment. As the image capturing apparatus, a camera mobile phone or a so-called tablet can also be used, besides a still camera or a video camera whose main function is so-called image capture. Information processing apparatuses including a mobile phone such as a so-called smart phone, a so-called tablet, a TV and the like can also be used for the terminal apparatus 2000, besides a typical personal computer.
In the camera 1000 of FIG. 1, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 1001, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 1002, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 1003, an input processing unit 1004, an output processing unit 1006, a communication controller 1008, a recording medium controller 1011, a camera signal processor 1015 and an encoding/decoding processing unit 1016 are connected to an internal bus 1010. The constituent elements connected to the internal bus 1010 are configured so as to be able to exchange data with each other via the internal bus 1010.
