RECORDING OF A DIGITAL VIDEO STREAM

摘要

A recording system (100) includes a storage medium (110, 120) for storing a stream of digital video images and for storing a plurality of pictures, where each picture is linked to a corresponding image of the video stream. An editor (130) enables a user to select a video image in the stored stream and to select an image location in the selected image. The editor also obtains a pointer picture for indicating a location in an image. The pointer picture has a predetermined pointer location on an edge of the pointer picture that corresponds to a pointer direction of the pointer picture. The editor stores associated information identifying the selected image location, the obtained pointer picture and the predetermined pointer location for the selected image, enabling a rendering device to display the selected image overlaid by the associated pointer picture and pointing at the associated location in the displayed image.
