Patent ID: 8792778

Claim:
A video data display apparatus for reproducing and displaying video data, comprising: a calculation unit configured to calculate an operation speed based on an input user operation; an obtaining unit configured to obtain section information indicating a specific section of the video data based on video analysis information corresponding to one or more analysis item designated by said user operation from a plurality analysis items for the video data; a deciding unit configured to decide a first reproduction speed corresponding to the operation speed calculated by said calculation unit, and decide a second reproduction speed for reproducing the video data belonging to the section indicated by the section information at a speed lower than the first reproduction speed in case that the video data belonging to the section is going to be reproduced in a condition that the calculated operation speed is faster than a prescribed operation speed, wherein the prescribed operation speed includes a maximum prescribed speed for perceptible video reproduction; a reproduction unit configured to reproduce the video data at a reproduction speed decided by said deciding unit, wherein said deciding unit decides, when said deciding unit decides the second reproduction speed, a third reproduction speed faster than the first reproduction speed based on the second reproduction speed and the operation speed, and said reproduction unit reproduces video data that is not belonging to the section at the third reproduction speed in case that video data belonging to the section is reproduced at the second reproduction speed because the calculated operation speed exceeds the prescribed operation speed.
