Application: Content data processing method and content data processing apparatus (Patent ID: US20230421865A1)
The patent filed by Yamaha Corp. describes a content data processing method that involves generating time codes indicating elapsed time from the start of a live event, creating content data by adding these time codes to audio or video data received from the event, and generating duration codes reflecting the start and end times of the data. The method also includes distributing the content data to processing apparatus, generating related information about the destination of the data, and allowing for changes in the destination based on received information.
Furthermore, the patent details the processing of audio and video data separately, including adding musical time information to audio data and motion data to video data. It also involves capturing specific reactions from participants in the live event, generating reaction data with time codes, and distributing this data for processing. Additionally, the method allows for the selection and reproduction of specific audio data associated with performers in the event based on the time codes added to the data. The patent also covers the reproduction of reaction data from multiple participants and the aggregation of this data for playback. The content data processing apparatus described in the patent is equipped to perform these functions, including generating, distributing, and processing content data with time codes and related information.
