An image encoding method includes: obtaining imaging information determined during a process of capturing an image; generating metadata for determining a compression strength of the image based on the imaging information; determining the compression strength of the image based on the metadata; and encoding the image based on the determined compression strength.

Method and device for compressing image on basis of photography information

Methods and apparatuses are provide for displaying a representative color of an image. One or more images are displayed on a display. A scroll operation corresponding to a user input is identified for displaying a plurality of images subsequently following the one or more images. During the scroll operation, at least one of the one or more images and a plurality of objects are displayed together on the display. Each of the plurality of objects is displayed in place of a respective one of the plurality of images and each of the plurality of objects is displayed as a solid-color object corresponding to one representative color of the respective one of the plurality of images. After the solid-color objects are displayed during the scroll operation, the at least one of the one or more images and the plurality of images are displayed together on the display. The plurality of images being displayed in place of the solid-color objects.

Method and electronic device for converting color of image

Provided are a method and apparatus for displaying contents-related items. The method includes using a correlation between a first attribute and a second attribute to determine values of the second attribute, wherein the first attribute is one of a plurality of attributes of the contents-related items, the second attribute is one of a plurality of attributes of a plurality of blocks which is a part or a region of a screen, and each one of the plurality of blocks corresponds to each one contents-related item; and displaying the one or more contents-related items by displaying each corresponding block having the determined value of the second attribute on the screen, wherein the first attribute and the second attribute can be quantitatively represented.

Method and apparatus for displaying items related to contents

The display apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a first image set, a storage configured to store a second image set with a size corresponding to the first image set, an image processor configured to receive the first image set and the second image set in units of frames and to synthesize the first image set and the second image set to generate a final image set, and a display configured to display the final image set. The image processor detects a region of the second image set, to be synthesized with the first image set, receives only partial data corresponding to the detected region with respect to the second image set of a next frame after the region is detected, and synthesizes the some received data and the first image set to generate a final image set.

Display apparatus and display method

A system and method for providing a guideline for optimizing a platform are provided. The system for providing a guideline for optimizing a platform includes: a virtual hardware platform which virtually simulates a hardware architecture equivalent to hardware and performs a function of the hardware; a software platform which provides an operating environment of software on the virtual hardware platform; an application class which installs and operates software to be inspected on the software platform; a simulation class which simulates the software to be inspected; and an optimization inspection class which inspects whether the software to be inspected is optimized to the hardware platform or the software platform, during the simulation, the optimization inspection class providing an optimization inspection result of the software to be inspected as the guideline for optimizing the platform.

System and method for providing a guideline for optimizing platform

A menu display apparatus and method, which enable a user to easily and quickly search for content of interest among a plurality of contents shared by a plurality of devices in a home network, are provided. The menu display method includes: receiving information regarding a zoom-in location or a zoom-out location on a current menu screen; and zooming in the current menu screen at the zoom-in location so that a plurality of menus currently displayed on the current menu screen are displayed in more detail, or zooming out the current menu screen at the zoom-out location so that the menus are displayed in less detail. Accordingly, it is possible to minimize content search delay and the user's inconvenience related to a content search, such as too much screen scrolling, and to help the user to easily and quickly search for the content of interest.

Menu display apparatus and method and recording medium storing computer program for executing the menu display method

An image processing apparatus and an image processing method processing a graphic image are provided. An image processing apparatus including: a display unit; a first image output unit which outputs a first image signal; a second image output unit which outputs a second image signal and a transparency information with respect to the second image signal; an image mixing unit which outputs a third image signal mixing the first image signal and the second image signal by using the transparency information; an image processing unit which processes the third image signal to output to the display unit; and a control unit which extracts the transparency information from the second image output unit, and outputs a position information about which the second image signal is displayed in the display unit based on the extracted transparency information to the image processing unit.

Image processing apparatus and image processing method

A method of displaying a state of an apparatus having a user interface which includes generating state display information indicating the state of the apparatus and displaying the generated state display information in the user interface. The state display information indicates the state of the apparatus through a metaphorical indicator.

Method and apparatus for displaying state of apparatus

Provided are a method and apparatus for displaying electronic program guide (EPG) information so that a broadcast program can be searched for even when the size of each display region of an EPG information screen, which displays program information, is small or reduced and a broadcast receiver therefor. The method includes detecting program information for each of a plurality of broadcast programs which are to be displayed from the electronic program guide information, adjusting or changing the program information to be suitable for a display region for each broadcast program in an electronic program guide information screen, and constructing and displaying the electronic program guide information screen so that the electronic program guide information reflects the adjusted or changed program information.

Electronic program guide information display method and apparatus, and broadcasting receiver thereof

A video contents recording apparatus and a method of managing a data storage medium include: a data storage medium in which a plurality of contents are recorded; and a controller displaying a list of contents to be deleted generated from the contents recorded in the data storage medium to a user via a display unit according to a predetermined delete priority and deleting contents selected by the user from the data storage medium with reference to the list. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a recording space of a data storage medium having limited data storage capacity may be efficiently managed by automatically deleting contents stored in the data storage medium according to a predetermined priority selected by a user or by providing a delete list for referring to when the user determines contents to be deleted.
