Processing cluster and method for processing audio and video content

摘要

A processing cluster, a method for processing audio and video content (AV-content) 2 and the use of a computer cluster for processing AV-content is provided. Processing of AV-content 2 is performed by application of a plurality of different image processing algorithms. The algorithms are classified as a function of their image processing characteristic which is a function of a number of frames of the AV-content 2 which is required for performing the respective algorithm. Temporal video segmentation of the AV-content 2 is performed and the AV-content 2 is segmented into a plurality of separate scenes 6, shots 4 and/or sub-shots 5. Scenes 6, shots 4 and sub-shots 5 of the AV-content 2 are allocated to an image processing algorithm. The allocation is based on the class of the respective algorithm and execution of said algorithm is restricted to the frames of the allocated scene 6 shot 4 or sub-shot 5 of the AV-content 2.
