According to one embodiment, a voice interactive device configure to transmit a voice content to a plurality of voice interactive services through a network, wherein the plurality of voice interactive services are selected based at least in part on the voice content.

Voice interactive device and method for controlling voice interactive device

According to one embodiment, a basic format for a 3D signal having a first area to arrange main video data, a second area to arrange graphic data, a third area to arrange depth information of pixels of the main video data, and a fourth area to arrange depth information of pixels of the graphic data are defined. When depth information of pixels of the main video data is generated, a 3D processing module can select whether to use a first pattern obtained by inserting the graphic data into the main video data and a second pattern obtained by not inserting the graphic data into the main video data. A 3D related controller decides on the first or second pattern to be used by the 3D processing module.

Stereoscopic video signal processing apparatus and method thereof

According to one embodiment, an information storage medium, and the program comprises referring to a manifest from a playlist that manages playback presentation of a playback presentation object, referring to one of a markup and a script from the manifest, monitoring defining of a name corresponding to an event in the markup, and generation of an event in response to the name corresponding to the event defined in the markup using an event listener in the script, and designating function contents that execute processing when the event is generated.

Information processing regarding different transfer

According to one embodiment, there is provided an information playback method, comprising reading out management information used to manage one or more video titles from an information storage medium, the medium storing an advanced content including the management information in which a title timeline indicating playback timings of objects of each video title being individually defined, and playing back objects of each video title in accordance with the title timeline defined in the readout management information.

Information recording and reproducing method using management information including mapping information

Information storage medium, information reproducing apparatus, and information reproducing method

An information storage medium of this invention comprises a first representation object, and a first time map wherein playback management information which controls simultaneous reproduction of the first representation object and a second representation object in at least a specific period includes first reference information to refer to the first time map, the first time map includes second reference information to refer to second management information including first management information about the first representation object, the first management information includes third reference information to refer to the first representation object, the playback management information includes fourth reference information to refer to a second time map, and the second time map has a data structure including fifth reference information to refer to the second representation object.

A content reproduction apparatus including reproduction unit configured to reproduce content data item stored in recording medium storing first server identifier and content data item including destination identifier, reads first server identifier from recording medium, to store first server identifier in table, certifies first server corresponding to first sever identifier, receives first server policy from first server being certified, first server policy including second server identifier redirecting to second server, to store second server identifier in table, certifies second server, acquires destination identifier while reproduction unit reproduces content data item, determines whether destination identifier being acquired is equal to first identifier stored in table, and accesses to second server, when at least destination identifier is equal to first identifier and second server is certified.

Content reproduction apparatus, and content reproduction method

When one video image (e.g., second video image) is blended or synthesized to video image (e.g., main video image), time base correction is made between both video data. A video data processing apparatus comprising a first video generator generating a first video data having an arbitrary frame rate, a second video generator generating a second video data having an arbitrary frame rate different from the first video data, and a synchronization controller using video reproduction time managed by the first video generator as a reference time, and correcting video reproduction time of the second video generator shifted from the reference time by repeatedly using the second video data to obtain frame synchronization.

Video data processing apparatus

A video data recording/reproducing apparatus includes an input device, a data storage unit that stores the video data item input by the input device, a communication unit that executes communicates with an external unit via a network, a unit that moves one of a plurality of video data items stored in the data storage unit to the external unit, a unit that reproduces to-be-reproduced video data item from the data storage unit if the to-be-reproduced video data item is stored in the data storage unit, and a unit that executes a streaming process to reproduce a stream of the to-be-reproduced video data item that is transferred from the external unit while the stream of the to-be-reproduced video data item is being received by the communication unit, if the to-be-reproduced video data item is stored in the external unit.
