This application discloses a video playing method, apparatus, and system, and a computer storage medium, which belongs to the field of video processing technologies. In this application, after receiving the rotation fragment, the terminal decodes the rotation fragment, so that surround playing of a video picture can be implemented, and resolution of a played video picture can be the same as resolution of the video picture in the rotation fragment. This application is not limited by a quantity of cameras used for front-end shooting, and is widely applied.

A method and a system configured to execute the mentioned method is suggested, where the method is capturing media content associated with at least one object, using a plurality of media capturing devices, each carried by a mobile communication device, together forming a mobile media device. The method comprise: controlling each of the mobile media devices according to a respective, predefined role and role specific rules for mobile media device movements, while capturing media content, following the movement of the at least one determined object; acquiring sensor data, indicative of the mobile media device movements, from the mobile media devices, and updating the roles of the mobile media devices, based on the acquired sensor data.

A record-and-replay control device includes a video data acquisition unit configured to acquire video data from an imaging unit to capture an image of outside of a vehicle; an event detector configured to detect an event of the vehicle; an event detection direction acquisition unit configured to acquire an event detection direction of the event; a recording controller configured to store video data caused by the detected event as event recording data with a first angle of view; a replay controller configured to replay selected event recording data; and a display controller configured to control a display unit to display, out of thumbnail images of the stored event recording data, a thumbnail image indicating the event recording data to which the event detection direction is correlated, as a thumbnail image obtained by adopting a second angle of view with enlargement in the event detection direction.

Systems and methods are described to address shortcomings in conventional conversation systems by executing a customized supplemental function for a natural language query based on the user's profile. In some aspects, the systems and methods receive a user query for a media asset, determine a query template in the user's profile matching the user's query, and identify and execute a supplemental function corresponding to the query template in addition to responding to the user's query. The user's profile is customized on the user's usage patterns of an interactive media guidance application. By monitoring the user's usage patterns and learning from the user's actions in conjunction with the user's natural language queries on which supplemental functions to execute, the interactive media guidance application may provide a smarter and more efficient user experience.

A media file processing method includes: recognizing content features of a target media file, wherein the content features include an image feature and/or a sound feature; determining a target aggregation theme of the target media file according to the recognized content features of the target media file; determining the target media file as media files under the target aggregation theme; and synthesizing the media files under the target aggregation theme in response to a video clip instruction with respect to the target aggregation theme, to obtain a target video corresponding to the target aggregation theme.

A system for integrated analysis and management of video data includes a routing server configured to receive video data from an external input video providing device, a video database configured to store the received video data, a video analyzing server cluster including a plurality of video analyzing servers configured to analyze the video data, a metadata database configured to store metadata of the video data, and a video search server configured to search the metadata database and the video database. As described in various embodiments of the present disclosure, the system can perform integrated analysis of various video data received from a number of channels and provide an analysis result, and can also rapidly provide an accurate search result in response to a user's request for search.

Systems and methods are described herein for a media guidance application that detects, and responds to, a user's review of video content on a media device. The media guidance application detects a rewind operation during playback of a video comprising a media asset. In response, the media guidance application determines if the playback position reached during the rewind operation occurs during a first break in the media asset and, if so, identifies objects depicted in the video at the playback position, and presents auxiliary video relating to an object at a second break in the media asset.

A scratchpad creation method and an electronic device are disclosed. The method includes: receiving a first input performed by a user on a target identifier, where the target identifier is associated with a first video file; and displaying a first scratchpad in response to the first input, where the first scratchpad is a scratchpad created based on content of the first video file, the first scratchpad includes at least one video identifier and at least one progress identifier, the video identifier is used to indicate a video clip in the first video file, and the progress identifier is used to indicate completion progress of an operation corresponding to the video clip.

Methods, devices, and systems for segmenting and annotating videos for analysis are disclosed. A user identifies specific moments of the video that provide a teachable moment. A pre-context and a post-context portion of the video surrounding the identified moment are used to create a tile video. One or more tile videos are compiled in a user-defined order to generate a weave video with a specific focus or theme. The generated weave video is shared with one or more users and can be annotated to facilitate teaching and/or discussion.
