A method of video encoding is provided to reduce the cost of network DVR storage by building on a concept of Just-In Time (JIT) transcoding which eliminates storing all formats of content in a DVR. A super-encoding procedure is provided that encodes a high resolution format, such as HEVC, while metadata is provided for lower resolution formats, such as MPEG4. The metadata can include items like motion vectors to reduce the computational costs during JIT transcoding. The super-encoded data is stored in memory of the DVR. High resolution encoded data is read directly out of the DVR memory, while lower resolutions are transcoded from the DVR memory data using the metadata to increase efficiency.

An image processing apparatus includes a memory configured to store compressed data; and frame buffer compressing circuitry which includes encoder circuitry configured to compress at least some of source data to generate the compressed data and transmit the compressed data to the memory, and decoder circuitry configured to read and decompress the compressed data from the memory, in which the compressed data includes a payload and a header including actual compressed data and flag, the frame buffer compressing circuitry is configured to reflect a result obtained by comparing an accumulated compressibility corresponding to the compressed data with a reference compressibility in the flag, and is configured to perform compression or decompression in a lossy mode or a lossless mode depending on the flag.

A radiographic image processing apparatus includes a hardware processor and an image processor. The hardware processor obtains moving image data captured by a radiographic imaging apparatus, causes a display to display a moving image based on the moving image data, and specifies a part of the moving image data that is to be output to an external device. The image processor performs image processing on the part of the moving image data. The hardware processor outputs, to the external device, the part of the moving image data on which the image processing has been performed by the image processor.

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a video decoding control method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method includes detecting, in response to detecting a plurality of application programs running in a split-screen mode, one or more application programs in a video playback state among the plurality of application programs; acquiring the one or more application programs detected in the video playback state to serve as one or more to-be-configured application programs; and providing a configuration to decode a video played by the one or more to-be-configured application programs in a manner of hard decoding.

The present disclosure teaches a method and apparatus for allowing a user to select and view one or multiple programs at random whenever he desires and to suspend viewing in the middle of a program to accommodate an interruption and to continue viewing after the interruption without missing any of the program. In addition, previously stored programs may be viewed at accelerated or decelerated speed, or repeated or portions reviewed, to allow the user to review such in other than real time.

An image capturing apparatus comprises an image capturing unit that includes an image sensor that has an effective pixel region and a reference pixel region which outputs a reference signal for correcting an output signal of the effective pixel region. In a case where a predetermined condition is satisfied, a reduction unit reduces a data amount of reference pixel region data that corresponds to the reference pixel region in an image data obtained by the image capturing unit. A recording unit records the image data after the processing performed by the reduction unit.

A system comprises a writer to form a plurality of color mits on a base material, wherein at least one of the color mits may represent computer-readable instructions comprising data other than pixel-image data. The plurality of color mits may include a first color mit and a second color mit, wherein the first color mit represents information data, and the second color mit represents that the first color mit contains a particular type of information data. The system also may include a reader to read colors of the plurality of color mits on the base material. The system may comprise a device to map at least one of the color mits to computer-readable instructions. The system may further comprise a processor configured to transmit signals using a colored light.

A system and method disposed to enable encoding, decoding and manipulation of digital video with substantially less processing load than would otherwise be required. In particular, one disclosed method is directed to generating a compressed video data structure that is selectively decodable to a plurality of resolutions including the full resolution of the uncompressed stream. The desired number of data components and the content of the data components that make up the compressed video data, which determine the available video resolutions, are variable based upon the processing carried out and the resources available to decode and process the data components. During decoding, efficiency is substantially improved because only the data components necessary to generate a desired resolution are decoded. In variations, both temporal and spatial decoding are utilized to reduce frame rates, and hence, further reduce processor load. The system and method are particularly useful for real-time video editing applications.

An image capture device for recording HDR (high dynamic range) image data obtained through image capture performs control so as to, when encoding HDR image data obtained by capturing an image with an image sensor, divide part of the HDR image data corresponding to a coding area to be encoded into a plurality of divided HDR image data, encode each of the plurality of divided HDR image data by using encoding means, and record the plurality of divided HDR image data that are encoded on a recording medium in a predetermined recording format.

Disclosed in embodiments of the present disclosure are a method and an apparatus used for image display. A specific embodiment of the present method comprises: determining a selected time point of a user performing adjustment of playback progress of a target video, the target video comprising a key frame set; determining a target key frame in the key frame set, a difference between a time point corresponding to the target key frame and the selected time point meeting a first pre-determined condition; on the basis of the target key frame, performing decoding of a video frame corresponding to the selected time point, obtaining a decoded video frame; displaying the decoded video frame in a first target display region. The present embodiment increases flexibility of video frame display, and helps increase user positioning and video frame processing effectiveness.
