An apparatus for and a method of extracting a video segment from a multiplexed video are disclosed. According to some aspects of the disclosed embodiment, an apparatus, service and method for video selection/extraction are provided for when a service provider delivers a video sized greater than the screen of a user-owned device without a separate conversion, in order to extract predefined video areas in real time from the user device for a customized display on the device display screen, or extract from a network gateway or streaming server in real time the predefined video areas for a customized delivery to meet the specification of the terminal that ordered the video segment, or upon receiving user's navigated and selected video location from the terminal, extract the video segment and enlarge specified location and provides multifaceted viewing experiences for the user.

Examples of system architectures for cameras are described herein. Described architectures may facilitate small form-factor cameras which may be devoid of a viewfinder. In some example architectures, external RAM may not be provided. In some example architectures, an image signal processing (ISP) chip and a separate processing unit (e.g., a microcontroller unit (MCU) may be provided. The MCU may have sufficient internal memory so that little or no external volatile memory or RAM is used, for example, for image data buffering.

To be able to simply record RAW image data, and quickly output images according to the recorded RAW image data. First, the apparatus can shift operation modes to a still image photographing mode, a still image playing mode, a moving image photographing mode, or a moving image playing mode. Photographed images are subjected to rough development and recorded in a recording medium, and RAW files are generated and recorded. Then, the apparatus shifts to an idle state when processing loads are small in each mode and performs high image quality development processing using the recorded RAW files if high image quality development has not been performed to replace the image files subjected to rough development.

A file managing method for a digital apparatus includes (a) establishing a folder corresponding to a file type generated in an operational mode of the digital apparatus, and (b) storing a file according to its file type to the folder corresponding to the file type established in step (a).

The present disclosure relates to a an electronic device such as a digital camera 300 that includes a deletion mode whereby a camera/electronic device user can delete captured images or data files that have already been transferred in order to make room in the electronic device or digital camera memory for capturing further images. In one embodiment a digital camera keep track of which images have already been transferred to an external storage device and presents those to the user as potential images to be deleted. In another embodiment, the user is presented with a delete all transferred images which when selected deletes all the captured images that have already been transferred. In still another embodiment, a deletion criteria is used to prioritize which images are deleted first.

An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit, a first image processor, and a second image processor. The imaging unit sequentially acquires image frames whose photography conditions have been changed. The first image processor generates moving image data by performing image processing to maintain continuity between the image frames obtained by changing the photography conditions. The second image processor composes the image frames whose photography conditions have been changed, to generate condition-changed still image data.

An image capturing apparatus which captures an image of a subject with an image sensor having pixels each including a plurality of areas and generates a RAW image for each of the plurality of areas from a signal generated by the image sensor. The apparatus generates a first RAW image and a second RAW image from the RAW images, generates first image data by performing first development on the first RAW image, generates first RAW image data and second RAW image data by compressing the first RAW image and the second RAW image and performs second development on the first RAW image having a higher processing load than the first development. Second image data is generated by the second development on the first RAW image by using the second RAW image.

A device, system and method for decoding. A noisy version of an error correction codeword may be received, for example, over a noisy communication channel or retrieved from a memory device (e.g. a flash memory device). One or more symbol probabilities may be transformed, from an initial domain to a transformed domain, the symbol probabilities being one or more individual symbols of the received error correction codeword were transmitted as one or more symbols in candidate transmitted error correction codewords. In the transformed domain, a plurality of the transformed symbol probabilities may be composed to generate a combined coset probability defining the likelihood that the transmitted error correction codeword is associated with the individual symbols belongs to a particular one of a plurality of candidate cosets. A plurality of the coset probabilities for the plurality of respective cosets may be inverse transformed from the transformed domain to the initial domain.

A method and apparatus for delivering video program content with selective viewing capability. An apparatus in accordance with the present invention comprises a personal video recorder (PVR), which can be a portion of an Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD), an access key, coupled to the PVR, and a storage medium containing the video program content, wherein the video program content is stored on the storage medium in an encrypted manner, the access key is used to access the program content on the storage medium, and the storage medium is removable from the PVR.

The present invention relates to an apparatus of providing a user interface for playing and editing moving pictures (i.e., video) and the method thereof, the user interface being capable of maximizing learning and practice effects by providing an interface which allows inserting of cue-points in the video on the basis of beats in music or periodic signals equivalent thereto and visibly displaying cue-points, recording of one's practice clips while playing the video so as to allow video playback and practice at the same time, and the instantaneous comparison/analysis of the recorded practice clips and reference video.
