A system and method may analyze an input video content to produce analysis results. An event captured in the input video content may be identified based on the analysis results. A start time and an end time of a segment of the input video content, the segment including the event, may be determined and, an output video content may be generated by including the segment in the output video content.

A clip of shots is uploaded to a conformance platform. The conformance platform evaluates the clip type and initiates shot boundary evaluation and detection. The identified shot boundaries are then seeded for OCR evaluation and the burned in metadata is extracted into categories using a custom OCR module based on the location of the burn-ins within the frame. The extracted metadata is then error corrected based on OCR evaluation of the neighboring frame and arbitrary frames at pre-computed timecode offsets from the frame boundary. The error corrected metadata and categories are then packaged into a metadata package and returned back to a conform editor. The application then presents the metadata package as an edit decision list with associated pictures and confidence level to the user. The user can further validate and override the edit decision list if necessary and then use it to directly to conform to the online content.

Power reduction through clock management techniques are disclosed. In one aspect, the clock management is applied to a clock signal on a SOUNDWIRE communication bus. In particular, a control system associated with a master device on the communication bus may evaluate frequency requirements of audio streams on the communication bus and select a lowest possible clock frequency that meets the frequency requirements. Lower clock frequencies result in fewer clock transitions and result in a net power saving relative to higher clock frequencies. In the event of a clock frequency change, the master device communicates the clock frequency that will be used prospectively to slave devices on the communication bus, and all devices transition to the new frequency at the same frame boundary. In addition to the power savings, exemplary aspects of the present disclosure do not impact an active audio stream.

A positional recording synchronization system can include: creating a time stamped telemetry point for an unmanned aerial vehicle; creating a time stamped recording; creating transformed data from the time stamped recording, the transformed data being tiles for zooming or thumbnails; creating a flightpath array, an image metadata array, and a video metadata array; determining whether entries of the video metadata array match with the flightpath array; determining whether entries of the image metadata array match with the flightpath array; synchronizing the time stamped telemetry point with the time stamped recording based on either the entries of the image metadata array matching the flightpath array, the entries of the visualizer module matching the flightpath array, or a combination thereof; and displaying the time stamped telemetry point as a selection tool for calling, viewing, or manipulating the time stamped recording on a display.

Disclosed are systems and methods for improving image recognition by using information from sensor data. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving one or more sensor records, the sensor records representing timestamped sensor data collected by a sensor recording device; selecting an event based on the sensor records; identifying a time associated with the event; retrieving a plurality of timestamped video frames; synchronizing the sensor records and the video frames, wherein synchronizing the sensor records and the video frames comprises synchronizing the timestamped sensor data with individual frames of the timestamped video frames according to a common timeframe; and selecting a subset of video frames from the plurality of timestamped video frames based on the selected event.

A method and an apparatus for rearrangement of media data using visual representations of the media data are described. A displaying unit displays visual representations of media data items in a temporal order according to temporal metadata of the media data items. An operation unit changes the position of the visual representation of a first media data item upon receipt of a user input. Automatically, the position of the visual representations of some other media data items are changed corresponding to the position change of the visual representation of the first media data item.

The present disclosure relates to a method for recording user activity on a computer. The method includes creating a video file for a video sequence of a user interface of an application of the computer. Video frames may be recorded in the video file, wherein a video frame comprises data indicative of the visual representation of the user interface and corresponding timestamp, wherein the data of the video frame is parsable.

A video production server comprising at least one processor and a storage is suggested. Software modules composed of executable program code are loaded into a working memory of the at least one processor. Each software module, when executed by the at least one processor, provides an elementary service. A concatenation of elementary services provides for a functionality involving processing of video and/or audio signals needed for producing a broadcast program. The video production server includes a set of software components that runs on conventional hardware. Each functionality of the video production server is achieved by using a specific piece of software that is assembled from reusable functional software blocks and that can run on any compatible hardware platform. Furthermore, a method for operating the video production server and a distributed video production system including the video production server is suggested.

Innovations in the area of sample metadata processing can help a media playback tool avoid loss of synchronization between sample metadata and media samples. For example, a media playback tool identifies encoded data and sample metadata for a current media sample, then couples the sample metadata with the current media sample. The media playback tool provides the sample metadata and encoded data for the current media sample to a media decoder, which maintains the coupling between at least one element of the sample metadata and the current media sample during at least one stage of decoding, even when the current media sample is dropped, delayed, split, or repeated. For example, the media playback tool can determine whether to drop the current media sample and, if the current media sample is dropped, also drop the sample metadata that is coupled with the current media sample.
