METHOD, DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATICALLY ADJUSTING A DURATION OF A SONG

摘要

Methods, systems and devices may automatically determine splice points within a song to alter a length of the song. Possible splice points may be obtained by comparing different portions of the song with each other. After obtaining possible splice points, the song may be shortened by deleting/skipping portions of the song between two paired splice points. Alternatively the song may be lengthened. The altered song may be used with an audio-visual presentation, such as a slide show or commercial, or as a ringtone.
