Methods, systems, and techniques for projecting streamed video are provided. An Example Surround Video Projection System (SVPS) provides support for interacting with the displayed virtual reality environment, capturing a video of a user in the VR environment, and displaying the VR environment on deformations. Also, the SVPS may change the displayed VR environment responsive to attributes and/or characteristics of the user. In one example, the SVPS comprises a real time, interactive rendering system, a display system, and one or more display units. The rendering system comprises a high resolution graphics engine capable of generating high resolution video. The projection system comprises video capture cards to capture the generated video stream and forward it to a projection mapping engine. The projection mapping engine consolidates and stitches together the received video stream as appropriate to render the video stream over display units to the target viewing environment such as a dome/sphere.

The present invention relates to a content producing device and method for matching and storing music information when an electronic device captures an image and, particularly, to a content producing device and method for storing, together with a captured image, information on music played by an electronic device or around the electronic device when the image is captured. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a control method for an electronic device comprises the steps of: capturing an image when a photographing instruction is inputted by a user; acquiring, during capturing of the image, sound source information on music played in a space in which the electronic device is located; and matching the sound source information on music to the captured image and storing the same.

In some embodiments, a method determines a combination of sub-bitstream chunks from a plurality of sub-bitstreams for a video. The combination of sub-bitstream chunks includes a quality measurement. The method exchanges a sub-bitstream chunk in the combination of sub-bitstream chunks with another sub-bitstream chunk from another sub-bitstream in the plurality of sub-bitstreams based on a relationship of a change in bitrate to a change in quality due to the exchanging. The method continues to exchange a sub-bitstream chunk in the combination of sub-bitstream chunks with another sub-bitstream chunk until the quality measurement of the combination of sub-bitstream chunks meets a target quality and outputs the combination of sub-bitstream chunks

At least one video stream that is encoded video information, and a management information file indicating attributes relating to the entire recording medium, are recorded in a recording medium. The management information file includes attribute information indicating whether the dynamic range of luminance of an initial video stream, which is played first out of the at least one video stream when the recording medium is inserted into a playback device, is a first dynamic range, or a second dynamic range that is broader than the first dynamic range.

A display control apparatus is provided with: a first controlling device configured to perform still picture reproduction or motion picture reproduction of motion picture content, within a screen of a displaying device; a second controlling device configured to superimpose and display bookmark data indicating a bookmark having a predetermined shape, on the motion picture content only in a predetermined period on a time axis of the motion picture content, in a predetermined position or range within the screen, during the still picture reproduction or the motion picture reproduction of the motion picture content; and a holding device configured to hold the bookmark data in association with the time axis of the motion picture content.

An image capturing device, image capturing system, and image processing method, each of which: obtains a video image of an object; converts a wide-angle video image to generate a low-definition, wide-angle image; applies projection transformation to a part of the wide-angle video image to generate a high-definition, narrow-angle video image in different projection; combines each frame of the low-definition, wide-angle video image and a corresponding frame of the high-definition, narrow-angle video image, into one frame data while reducing a resolution of each video image, to generate a combined video image; transmits the combined video image for display at a communication terminal; in response to a request from the communication terminal, applies projection transformation to a part of a frame of the wide-angle video image to generate an ultra-high-definition, narrow-angle still image in different projection; and transmits the ultra-high-definition, narrow-angle still image for display at the communication terminal.

A system is provided that presents video content on an electronic device such that, when a user swipes to dismiss the video content, non-video summary information or contextual material about the video content is automatically displayed in place of the video content. The non-video summary information is presented on a summary card dragged on-screen responsive to user swipe input. If, for example, the user swipes to dismiss a video advertisement before an informational payload of the video advertisement has been delivered, the informational payload can automatically be displayed in text format on a summary card dragged by the user in replacement of the dismissed video advertisement.
