Patent

CA 2263260

A video playback device includes video and audio event detectors (102 and 104) which detect the presence of events in the video signal as it is played. When the viewer commands the device to skip past a portion of a recorded program, a processor (114) monitors the detect events to locate an event corresponding to the beginning of a next program segment. The device then returns to that location and begins normal play. Alternatively, the viewer may manually terminate the skipping process, at which time the device automatically returns to the location of the most recently detected event.

Un système de lecture vidéo comprend des détecteurs d'événements vidéo et audio (102, 104) qui détectent en lecture la présence d'événements dans le signal vidéo. Lorsque le télespectateur active une commande du système pour sauter un passage d'un programme enregistré, un processeur (114) surveille les événements détectés pour localiser un événement correspondant au début d'un segment de programme suivant. Le système revient alors à cet emplacement et commence une lecture normale. Dans une autre forme d'exécution, le télespectateur peut terminer manuellement le processus de saut, auquel cas le système revient automatiquement à l'emplacement de l'événement détecté en dernier.
