Abstract
Apparatus for controlling replay of video and/or audio material comprises cursor control means for providing user control of a cursor on the display screen; selection control means for selecting an operation to be performed by the apparatus in dependence on the current position of the cursor on the display screen when the selection control means is activated by the user; means for defining a shuttle control display screen area for use in controlling shuttle replay operation; means for detecting an initial activation of the selection control means while the cursor is at an initial activation point within the shuttle control display screen area; and means, responsive to the detecting means, for controlling shuttle replay of the recorded material at a shuttle speed dependent on a current displacement on the display screen of the cursor from the initial activation point while the selection control means remains continuously activated after the initial activation.
