System and method for jumping to a timepoint in a MPEG file

A system and method for performing seek or jump functions in a digitally stored audiovisual file are described. When the audiovisual file is recorded onto a storage medium, headers, which are distinct and separable from the audiovisual file datastream, are set in the audiovisual file in the storage medium. Each header contains a timestamp. When jumping / seeking, an estimated position for the desired timepoint on the storage medium is calculated by multiplying the storage unit per time unit rate by the desired timepoint. Then the system and method jumps to the estimated position, where the timestamp in the nearest header is checked to determine whether the time it indicates is close enough to the desired timepoint. If it is not, a new estimated position is calculated and the method repeats until either an iteration limit is reached or the estimated position is determined to be close enough to the desired timepoint.

Method for synchronising metadata with an audiovisual document by using parts of frames and a device for producing such metadata

The invention relates to a method and a device for synchronising metadata associated by a first signature to a first version of an audiovisual document, with a second version of this audiovisual document. The method is characterised in that it synchronises the metadata with the second version of the audiovisual document from a second signature detected in the portion of the second version of the audiovisual document, said portion of the second version of the audiovisual document being obtained by detecting the first signature in the second version of the audiovisual document. In this way, the precision of the synchronisation between the two items of video content carried out by the first signature is improved by the second signature, and new, more accurate metadata is created.

Method for creating a new summary of an audiovisual document that already includes a summary and reports and a receiver that can implement said method

The invention relates to a method for creating a new summary of an audiovisual document that has been pre-recorded in an apparatus. The document contains two parts, namely: the summary and a plurality of reports. The summary is in turn divided into a plurality of parts. According to the invention, the apparatus first looks for associations between the summary parts and the reports and then detects the reports that are not associated with summary parts. Subsequently, abstracts are created for the reports that are not associated with the summary and said abstracts are incorporated into the initial summary in order to create a new summary. In this way, the user can easily select any of the reports from the summary part associated with said report. The invention also relates to the receiver that can implement said method.
