Processing of removable media that stores full frame video & sub-frame metadata
First Claim
1. A removable storage media that may be received by and interact with both a first video player system and a second video player system, the first video player system having a first video display that has a first display characteristic, the second video player system having a second video display that has a second display characteristic, the first display characteristic being different from the second display characteristic, the removable storage media comprising:
- a plurality of storage locations;
a sequence of full frames of video data stored in at least a first of the plurality of storage locations;
first sub-frame metadata, generated to accommodate at least the first display characteristic, that is stored in at least a second of the plurality of storage locations;
the first sub-frame metadata defines a first plurality of sub-frames within the sequence of full frames of video data, each of the first plurality of sub-frames having at least a first parameter that differs from that of the other of the first plurality of sub-frames;
second sub-frame metadata, generated to accommodate at least the second display characteristic, that is stored in at least a third of the plurality of storage locations; and
the second sub-frame metadata defines a second plurality of sub-frames within the sequence of full frames of video data, each of the second plurality of sub-frames having at least a second parameter that differs from that of the other of the second plurality of sub-frames.

Abstract
A removable storage media is received by and interacts with both a first video player system and a second video player system. The first video player system has a first video display that has a first display characteristic and the second video player system has a second video display that has a second display characteristic, the first display characteristic being different from the second display characteristic. The removable storage media includes a plurality of storage locations and stores a sequence of full frames of video data, first sub-frame metadata, and second sub-frame metadata. The first sub-frame metadata is generated and the second sub-frame metadata are used to process the full frames of video data to correspond to the first video display and the second video display, respectively.

1. A removable storage media that may be received by and interact with both a first video player system and a second video player system, the first video player system having a first video display that has a first display characteristic, the second video player system having a second video display that has a second display characteristic, the first display characteristic being different from the second display characteristic, the removable storage media comprising:
-
a plurality of storage locations; a sequence of full frames of video data stored in at least a first of the plurality of storage locations; first sub-frame metadata, generated to accommodate at least the first display characteristic, that is stored in at least a second of the plurality of storage locations; the first sub-frame metadata defines a first plurality of sub-frames within the sequence of full frames of video data, each of the first plurality of sub-frames having at least a first parameter that differs from that of the other of the first plurality of sub-frames; second sub-frame metadata, generated to accommodate at least the second display characteristic, that is stored in at least a third of the plurality of storage locations; and the second sub-frame metadata defines a second plurality of sub-frames within the sequence of full frames of video data, each of the second plurality of sub-frames having at least a second parameter that differs from that of the other of the second plurality of sub-frames. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. Video player circuitry comprising:
-
media interface that receives a removable media, the removable media having stored thereon both full frame video and a plurality of sub-frame metadata; interface circuitry communicatively coupled to a display having at least one display characteristic; processing circuitry that selects first sub-frame metadata from the plurality of sub-frame metadata based upon the at least one display characteristic; the processing circuitry generates tailored video from the full frame video using the first sub-frame metadata; and the processing circuitry delivers the tailored video via the interface circuitry. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A method associated with a removable storage media, the method comprising:
-
storing first data representing a full screen video sequence; storing second data representing first sub-frame metadata, the second data for use in producing first tailored video from the first data, the first sub-frame metadata defining both a first sub-frame within the full screen video sequence and a second sub-frame with the full screen video sequence, the first sub-frame having at least one characteristic that differs from that of the second sub-frame; and storing third data representing second sub-frame metadata, the third data for use in producing second tailored video from the first data. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27)
