Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a video editing apparatus which enables detailed and clear understanding of information on an editing operation that occurs during online editing, particularly AB roll editing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, with the development of video editing devices, various effects have come to be used for editing work performed during online editing. Along with that, the amount of information has increased, and it has become difficult to handle the edit list by handwriting. Therefore, the system is now managed.

A conventional video editing apparatus will be described below. FIG. 4 shows an example of the system configuration of the video editing apparatus. The video editing apparatus 1 is composed of an editing processing section 2, a display section 3 and an editing information storage section 4, and the video editing apparatus 1 includes two playback VTRs 5, 6 and 1.
The editing VTR 7 and the switcher 8 are connected to each other. Here, in FIG. 4, thin lines indicate the flow of video signals, and thick lines indicate the flow of control signals.

FIG. 5 shows a case where an example of editing information is displayed on the display unit 3, 11 is a current area in which the information currently being edited is displayed, and 12 is a system used for the interaction between the operator and the system. A message area 13 indicates an edit list area in which all edit lists input to the computer are displayed.

FIG. 6 shows the conventional edit list area 13 in more detail. In FIG. 6, 14 is an event number area showing the number of each event, 15 is a reel name area showing the tape (reel) name being used, 16
Is an A / V mode area showing the switching display between AUDIO mode and VIDEO mode, 17 is a transition type area showing the type of editing such as cut, dissolve, wipe, 18 is a transition rate area showing the editing time, 19 is playback VTR 5, 6 IN-time, playback VTR 5, 6 OUT-time, 21 V
TR7 IN-time, 22 is VTR7 OUT for editing
-Indicating time.

In order to display the edit list information, the edit information storage unit 4 of the video editing apparatus 1 has an event number storage area 4a and a reel name storage area 4 as shown in FIG.
b, A / V mode storage area 4c, transition type storage area 4d, transition rate storage area 4e, playback VTR-IN point storage area 4f, playback VTR-OU
T point storage area 4g, editing VTR-IN point storage area 4
An edit VTR-OUT point storage area 4i is provided.

[0007]

However, the above-mentioned conventional video editing apparatus has a problem that even if the basic contents at the time of editing are known, detailed information generated at the time of AB roll editing or the like cannot be understood. Was.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a video editing apparatus capable of adding and displaying detailed information in an edit list.

[0009]

In order to solve the above problems, a video editing apparatus of the present invention has an editing VTR and a plurality of playback VTRs connected to each other and includes an editing processing section, a display section and an editing information storage section. In the video editing apparatus, the edit information storage section is provided with a transition content storage area for storing detailed content information of the transition, and the transition content can be freely displayed on the display section.

[0010]

With the above structure, detailed transition contents such as AB roll editing can be displayed any time the user wants to see the information, the editing work information can be efficiently managed by the system, and errors caused by human eyes can be reduced. be able to.

[0011]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.
Will be described with reference to. It should be noted that those having the same functions as those of the conventional one are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted, and the overall schematic configuration is the same as that of FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1, the editing information storage unit 4 of the video editing apparatus 1 is provided with a transition content storage area 4j for storing the transition content in addition to the conventional function. Therefore, the contents of the transition can be displayed on the display unit 3 by performing a predetermined key operation described below.

In FIG. 2, reference numeral 31 denotes INFORMATION.
An ON key, 32 is an ALLSTOP key, 33 is an upward movement key, 34 is a downward movement key, 35 is a scroll UP key, and 36 is a scroll DOWN key.

First, an event for which detailed information is to be displayed is selected in the edit list area, and the up move key 33, the down move key 34, the scroll UP key 35, and the scroll DO are selected.
Highlight it using the WN key 36, etc.
Make it an event. Therefore, when the INFORMATION key 31 is pressed, the content of the transition is displayed in the message area as shown in FIG. When cutting, "DURATION = 00: 00: 05: 12"
The duration is displayed. To return to the original current again, the INFORMATION key 3
Press 1 or ALL STOP key 32 to return to the original state.

By performing this key operation, the editing information can be known in more detail. SIZE in FIG.
(%) Indicates the ratio of the foreground to the screen at the time of key editing, such as ROT Angle and ROT Speed.
d indicates the rotation speed and angle when editing the key,
FREQ indicates the frequency of the motion when it is vibrating. In this way, detailed transition contents such as AB roll editing can be displayed at any time when desired, and the editing work information can be efficiently managed by the system, and errors caused by human eyes can be reduced. it can.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the information function capable of displaying detailed information of the transition is added, the editing information can be known in more detail and the editing work information can be efficiently processed. You can manage the system well.
