MOBILE GEOTAGGING DEVICES AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF MOBILE GEOTAGGING SYSTEMS
Aspects of present disclosure relates to a mobile geotagging device, a mobile geotagging system, and methods of mobile geotagging system. In certain embodiments, mobile geotagging device includes: a display screen, a processor, and a non-volatile storage device storing a mobile geotagging application. When executed by processor, mobile geotagging application causes the processor to: generate a time-coded image containing an initial starting point of time, track timing and geolocation information of mobile geotagging device while a digital camera is in use, and store tracked timing and geolocation data, receive a set of images and videos from digital camera, append timing and geolocation information in EXIF into corresponding image files and video files based on a timing difference between digital camera and mobile geotagging device and tracked timing and geolocation information data stored in geolocation/timing tracking storage, and store the images and videos having updated timing and geolocation information in image/video storage.
COMMERCIALS ON MOBILE DEVICES
Among other things, videos and commercials are downloaded to a mobile device for storage on the mobile device and later playout on the mobile device. The downloading includes downloading of metadata associated with the commercials and based on which the mobile device can select commercials for insertion into videos being played back to the user of the mobile device. The commercials to be downloaded are selected based on one or a combination of any two or more of the location of the user, the type of mobile device, and personally-identifiable information about a user of the mobile device.

IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
There is provided an image processing apparatus. An obtaining unit obtains an image, and first NR information defining noise reduction processing using a first noise reduction processing method which an external apparatus can apply to the image. A generating unit generates, on the basis of the first NR information, second NR information defining noise reduction processing using a second noise reduction processing method which is different from the first noise reduction processing method. A noise reducing unit applies the noise reduction processing using the second noise reduction processing method to the image in accordance with the second NR information.

Methods and systems for customizing virtual reality data
An exemplary virtual reality system provides an experience selection data structure to a media player device. The experience selection data structure comprises a plurality of entries each corresponding to a different virtual reality dataset, and each virtual reality dataset is customized to a different virtual reality experience associated with a different virtual viewpoint positioned at a different location with respect to a three-dimensional (3D) scene. The virtual reality system detects that the media player device selects an entry from the plurality of entries by way of the experience selection data structure. The selected entry corresponds to a particular virtual reality dataset customized to a particular virtual reality experience. Thus, in response to the detecting, the virtual reality system provides the particular virtual reality dataset to the media player device. Corresponding methods and systems, including details regarding corresponding media player devices, are also disclosed.
RECORDING PRESENTATIONS USING LAYERED KEYFRAMES
A layered-keyframe-based, presentation recording service provides for presentation recording sessions, the recording of presentations, and the creation of presentation videos. A user records with the user's device the document pages and page annotations, as well audio and video streams, that are presented using the device during the course of a presentation recording session. The pages, annotations and video streams are efficiently and separately recorded as keyframes. These keyframes are used as document, annotation and video layers to create layered keyframes. A presentation video is created from the layered keyframes and the recorded audio stream. Users can then playback presentation videos at a time, place and manner that is available to, accessible by and/or convenient to them.
Video encoding and decoding method based on entry point information in a slice header, and apparatus using same
A video encoding method includes deriving entry point information specifying an entry point of a substream for a picture. The entry point information includes an offset syntax element when the number of the offset syntax elements is larger than 0, where the offset syntax element represents an entry point offset between two entry points. The entry point information includes a length syntax element when the number of the offset syntax elements is larger than 0, where the length syntax element represents a bits length for the offset syntax element. The offset syntax element represents the number of bytes between the two entry points. A value of the length syntax element plus one corresponds to the bits length of the offset syntax element. A value of the number syntax element corresponds to the number of offset syntax elements in the slice header.
Recording medium, playback device, and playback method
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.
Menu navigation mode for media discs
Systems and methods are provided for reordering and/or bypassing certain informational content or menus that are conventionally presented prior to playback of media content stored on physical media discs. Upon initial use of a physical media disc, certain information content or menus may be presented to a user or viewer, for example, piracy warnings, language selection menus, etc. However, upon subsequent use of the physical media disc, such informational content or menus may be bypassed. The user or viewer is given an option to immediately begin consuming the media content stored on the physical media disc. Conventional content, such as trailers are not played prior to playback of the media content.
