Successive Moving Picture File Reproduction via Index Frame Classification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing digital image processing systems cannot reproduce multiple moving picture files successively, requiring separate operations for each file, which is inefficient and inconvenient for users.
Innovation Solution
A digital image processing apparatus with a moving picture detector, frame classifier, and successive reproducing unit that detects and classifies moving picture files based on index frames, allowing for sequential reproduction of classified files.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If multiple moving picture files are stored in a storage unit, then the quantity of stored files increases, but the ability to reproduce them successively is lost (only separate reproduction is possible)
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the reproduction process into distinct phases: detection phase (identifying moving picture files), classification phase (organizing by index frames), and reproduction phase (sequential playback). This segmentation enables the system to handle multiple files systematically while maintaining successive reproduction capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary detection and classification of moving picture files before reproduction. By pre-identifying files and organizing them based on index frames, the system prepares the necessary metadata and structure that enables subsequent successive reproduction without requiring separate operations for each file.
2Ease of operation
If separate operations are used for each moving picture file, then the simplicity of individual file reproduction is maintained, but the overall efficiency and user convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges multiple separate reproduction operations into a single successive reproduction process. By combining detection, classification, and playback functions into one integrated workflow, the system maintains operational simplicity while significantly improving efficiency and user convenience.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically detects, classifies, and reproduces moving picture files without requiring manual intervention for each file. The automated successive reproduction process serves itself by using index frames to organize and play files sequentially, eliminating the need for separate user operations.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a classification system based on index frames is introduced, then the organization and successive reproduction capability improves, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The index frame-based classification system serves multiple functions: it identifies moving picture files, organizes them by content characteristics, and enables successive reproduction. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate specialized components, thereby limiting the increase in device complexity while enhancing adaptability.

AI summary
A method and apparatus successively reproduce moving picture files stored in a digital image processing apparatus. The digital image processing apparatus includes a moving picture detector that detects one or more moving picture files from a storage unit which stores one or more kinds of files, a frame classifier that classifies the one or more detected moving picture files based on index frames of the moving picture files, and a successive reproducing unit that reproduces the classified moving picture files successively.
