Abstract: An acquisition section 104 acquires a plurality of sets of content data and stores the plurality of sets of content data in a content storage section 132. An editing processing section 110 generates a stream of continuous data obtained by temporally concatenating a plurality of sets of content data. An opening image generation section 114 generates, for each content, a set of opening image data. A clipping processing section 116 clips at least a portion of a set of content image data. A concatenating section 118 generates an edited set of image data obtained by temporally concatenating the set of opening image data and a clipped set of content image data.

Abstract: Digital events to dynamically establish avatar emotion may include particular dynamic metadata happening on live TV, Internet streamed video, live computer gameplay, movie scene, particular voice trigger from users or spectators, the dynamic position/state of an input device (such as a game controller resting on a table), etc. The system dynamically changes the state of a user avatar to various emotional and rig transformation state through this smart system. This brings in more life to the existing static chat/video chat conversation which is active, and user driven while this system is dynamically trigger-driven and autonomous in nature. The avatar world is thus rendered to ne more life-like and responsive to environmental and digital happenings of the user.

Abstract: A computer system including a content monitoring service of a menu application is provided. The content monitoring service pre-fetches data for a target application based on a data template defined for the target application, and stores the pre-fetched data in a cache of the menu application. The menu application presents a window in a first presentation state, where the window corresponds to the target application and includes content based on the pre-fetched data in the cache. The computer system further includes a window application that, upon a user selection of the window, receives a copy of the pre-fetched data from the cache and presents the window in a second state based on the data template.

Abstract: Techniques for previewing and presenting content of different applications in a user interface are described. In an example, a computer system determines a presentation template defined for a page application. The page application is configured to present a page about a target application, and the page includes a preview area and a body area. The system receives a user selection of an icon in a menu, whereby the icon corresponds to the target application. The system then presents in the user interface contents based on data stored in local memory, whereby the contents are presented according to an arrangement specified by the presentation template for the preview area. The system then receives a user request for additional information about the target application, and subsequently presents at least a portion of the body area of the page based on an execution of the page application.

Abstract: A game image generation unit 112 generates a moving image of content. A receiving unit 104 receives a displayed image changing request. Upon reception of the changing request by the receiving unit 104, a display control unit 106 acquires information regarding a frame image of the content from the frame buffer 108. A system image generation unit 120 uses the information regarding the frame image to generate an image that differs from the frame image. The display control unit 106 acquires information regarding an end frame image of the content or an image preceding the end frame image by a predetermined number of frames.
