HIGH RESOLUTION MULTIMEDIA SLIDE SHOW COMPOSITION FOR VIDEO CD AND DVD RENDERING

摘要

With the advance of digital and information technology, there is an urgent need to make image taking and sharing easy, fun, and cost and time efficient. In this paper, we present a multimedia system to compose visual and audio information into high resolution multimedia slide show, a Video Compact Disc (VCD) compliant bitstream readable by electronic devices such as Video CD/DVD players, for TV-centered multimedia rendering, sharing and entertainment. By using the technologies of multimedia composition, multimedia coding, and the sophisticated bit allocation scheme, we can achieve the same spatial resolution of DVD (without full motion). Special efforts are devoted to the multimedia experience, image quality improvement, and automation in the system.
