Reading image frames as files

摘要

First selected image frames in a native format are read from a frame storage device ( 103 ) and are directly modified in response to a first process. Output signals are supplied to a display device ( 102 ) such that the display device displays a view of stored frames. The frames are stored in the native format but appear in the view as if stored in an alternative format. Frames are selected and in response to receiving input selection signals, selected frames are translated into an alternative format and supplied to a second process in the translated formats.
