摘要

The method involves processing and analyzing a part of the audio and video data of a host program by a plug-in software program. A control data is generated, which is partly determined by the processing and analyzing of the audio and video data carried out by the plug-in software program. The control data or data derived from it is provided in a processable form of the host program. Independent claims are included for the following: (1) a digital audio and video processing device which comprises a plug-in software program; (2) a computer program, which has a program code; and (3) a digital data carrier, which has a program code for processing audio and video data.
