An example method can comprise receiving content for presentation at a user device. The content can comprise a plurality of sections, and each section can comprise a video portion and an audio portion. The user device can also receive content metadata regarding one or more features of the content, where the features of the content comprise one or more candidate sections of the content for modification. The user device can apply one or more rules to the received content based on the content metadata to modify one or more of the audio portion and the video portion of at least one section of the content, creating modified content, and can cause presentation of the modified content on a display device.

A method of acquiring information about content includes the operations of receiving a video signal from an external apparatus connected to an image display apparatus, extracting an object included in an on screen display (OSD) image from an image that is produced using the video signal, and collecting the information about content by using the extracted object.

Multiple different versions of media content are contained in a single package of audio-video media content, using compression algorithms that reduce storage and bandwidth required for storing multiple full-resolution versions of the media. Portions of individual frames are replaced during playback so that only the pixels that differ between versions need to be stored.

A transmitter according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a detection section, a generation section, and a transmission unit. The detection section detects ROI image data on a basis of ROI instruction information. The generation section generates ROI information from the ROI image data detected by the detection section. The transmission unit transmits the ROI image data and the ROI information to an external device. The detection section detects motion information on the detected ROI image data on a basis of one of a plurality of pieces of image data obtained at different imaging timings and a plurality of pieces of the ROI image data obtained at different imaging timings.

Systems and methods are provided herein for determining whether to adjust volumes of individual audio components in a media asset based on a type of segment of the media asset that is playing back. A media guidance application may determine that a user is playing back a segment of a media asset. The media guidance application may determine a type corresponding to the segment. The media guidance application may parse a plurality of audio components of the media asset that are playing back during the segment. The media guidance application may determine, for each audio component, whether to adjust the volume playing back during the segment based on the type. For each audio component of the plurality of audio components, in response to determining to adjust the volume, the media guidance application may adjust the volume of the audio component playing back during the segment.

An automatic flagging of sensitive portions of a digital dataset for media production includes receiving the digital dataset comprising at least one of audio data, video data, or audio-video data for producing at least one media program. A processor identifies sensitive portions of the digital dataset likely to be in one or more defined content classifications, based at least in part on comparing unclassified portions of the digital dataset with classified portions of the prior media production using an algorithm, and generates a plurality of sensitivity tags each signifying a sensitivity assessment for a corresponding one of the sensitive portions. The processor may save the plurality of sensitivity tags each correlated to its corresponding one of the sensitive portions in a computer memory for use by a media production or localization team.
