First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for reproducing video contents, comprising the steps of:
- in response to a single user search command, performing a video contents intelligent skip based on a shot index and based on a location in the video contents corresponding to when the single user search command is received, the video contents intelligent skip including automatically skipping video contents while simultaneously displaying a contiguous sequence of reproduction shots, contents of each reproduction shot of the contiguous sequence displayed at a content display speed equal to a corresponding content recording speed, each reproduction shot including a leading subset of a corresponding long shot and excluding any subsequent portion of the corresponding long shot, each reproduction shot having a predetermined length less than a total length of the corresponding long shot, the skipped video contents including any short shots between long shots corresponding to the contiguous sequence of reproduction shots; and
in response to a single user play command received while displaying the contiguous sequence of reproduction shots, stopping the video contents intelligent skip and reproducing the video contents from a position in the contiguous sequence of reproduction shots corresponding to when the user play command is received.

Abstract
A method for reproducing video contents includes the steps of: selecting a reproduction shot from video contents, based on a current location information and a shot index information; determining a reproduction section from the selected reproduction shot; and reproducing the determined reproduction section. After the determined reproduction section is reproduced, the above processes are repeated to next reproduction shots. The repetitive processes are performed all over the video contents until the user requests a reproduction change.

9. A video reproducing apparatus configured to reproduce video contents, comprising:
-
an input unit configured to receive user inputs; a control unit operatively connected to the input unit and configured to in response to a single user search command, perform a video contents intelligent skip based on a shot index and based on a location in the video contents corresponding to when the single user search command is received, the video contents intelligent skip including automatically skipping video contents while simultaneously displaying a contiguous sequence of reproduction shots, contents of each reproduction shot of the contiguous sequence displayed at a content display speed equal to a corresponding content recording speed, each reproduction shot including a leading subset of a corresponding long shot and excluding any subsequent portion of the corresponding long shot, each reproduction shot having a predetermined length less than a total length of the corresponding long shot, the skipped video contents including any short shots between long shots corresponding to the contiguous sequence of reproduction shots; and in response to a single user play command received while displaying the contiguous sequence of reproduction shots, stop the video contents intelligent skip and reproducing the video contents from a position in the contiguous sequence of reproduction shots corresponding to when the user play command is received. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
