In an embodiment, an electronic device may be configured to capture still frames during video capture but may capture the still frames in the 43 aspect ratio and at higher resolution than the 169 aspect ratio video frames. The device may interleave high resolution, 43 frames and lower resolution 169 frames in the video sequence, and may capture the nearest higher resolution, 43 frame when the user indicates the capture of a still frame. Alternatively, the device may display 169 frames in the video sequence, and then expand to 43 frames when a shutter button is pressed. The device may capture the still frame and return to the 169 video frames responsive to a release of the shutter button.

An information processing apparatus includes an image capturing unit, a display, and a controller. The image capturing unit is configured to capture images of a real space. The display is configured to display the images. If an image of a specific portion of a target an operation of which is to be described is included in the images captured by the image capturing unit, the controller generate operation description images by adding an image for instructing the operation to the captured images and controls the display to sequentially display the generated operation description images. When generating the operation description images, the controller stores a part of the generated operation description images. If the specific portion cannot be detected from the images captured by the image capturing unit before description on the operation of the specific portion is completed, the controller displays the stored operation description images on the display.

In response to a video aspect ratio of a frame of video not matching an aspect ratio of a display panel of a display device, a source device of a processing system transmits only the frame to the display device and metadata indicating that the display device is to generate bars for letterboxing or pillarboxing. By generating the bars for letterboxing or pillarboxing at the display device instead of transmitting the bars from the source device to the display device or storing the bars at a frame buffer of the display device, the processing system conserves power and bandwidth.

There is provided an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that make it possible to decrease reduction in a recognition rate corresponding to the amount of exercise of a user wearing a wearable device. Acceleration information is acquired as exercise state information, and movement speed is calculated. If the movement speed exceeds certain speed, a plurality of pieces of information is displayed in a time-division manner for a certain amount of information each with which amount a recognition rate is not decreased, whereby a plurality of pieces of information is displayed while reduction in the recognition rate is controlled. The present technology can be applied to a wearable device.

Techniques are described for enabling the insertion of semi-targeted content in live content streams consumed by devices that do not support unconstrained dynamic fragment insertion.

A reception apparatus comprises circuitry configured to send, based on an activated mode, to an external apparatus information on gamma correction that the reception apparatus is capable of processing to display high dynamic range images on a display panel. The circuitry is further configured to receive a high dynamic range signal comprising image data in high dynamic range from the external apparatus over a transmission path, and receive information in an InfoFrame packet on gamma correction for the image data in high dynamic range. The circuitry is configured to store EDID data that includes at least information on the gamma correction for the image data.

Transmission of HDR image data is satisfactorily performed between apparatuses. A transmission apparatus (synchronized apparatus) transmits the HDR image data to a reception apparatus (source apparatus) over a transmission path. At that time, the transmission apparatus transmits information on a transmission method for and/or information on gamma correction for the HDR image data to the reception apparatus over the transmission path. The reception apparatus performs processing (decoding processing, gamma correction processing, and the like) on the received HDR image data, based on the information on the transmission method and/or the information on the gamma correction that are received. For example, the transmission apparatus receives from the reception apparatus the pieces of information on the transmission method and/or the gamma correction that the reception apparatus can support, selects the method that the reception apparatus can support, and thus uses the selected method.
