20100249962 | Information processing apparatus, audio signal processing method, and program product - An information processing apparatus includes a communication unit, an incoming data determining unit, and an audio processing command generator. The communication unit communicates with an external apparatus that splits outgoing audio data and sequentially sends transmission audio signals, each signal having a header and transmission audio data containing some of the split audio data with an appended first counter. The incoming data determining unit determines the existence of continuity-related errors in a received transmission audio signal, on the basis of the first counter, as well as a second counter contained in the header. The audio processing command generator selectively generates an audio processing command on the basis of the determination results in the incoming data determining unit, wherein the audio processing command stipulates audio data playback processing to be conducted in the event of an error. | 09-30-2010 |
20100265399 | VIDEO/AUDIO INPUT/OUTPUT SYSTEM - Provided is a video/audio input/output system including a video/audio input system including a video input device and a plurality of audio input devices and a video/audio output system including a video output device having a display surface, the video output device being for outputting a video on the display surface based on a video signal obtained by the video input device, and a plurality of audio output devices respectively corresponding to the plurality of audio input devices. The plurality of audio output devices are each installed at a location determined by decreasing or increasing, according to a reduction rate or an enlargement rate of the video to a real size and with a centre of the video as a reference, a distance from the centre of the video to a foot of a perpendicular drawn from the location of installation of the corresponding audio input device to the display surface, and the plurality of audio output devices output audio based on the audio signals obtained by the corresponding audio input devices. | 10-21-2010 |
