Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
62 words
An image editing system comprising: an image compressing unit for compressing a video signal at a predetermined compressibility and generating a compressed image; a recording/reproducing unit for recording or reproducing said compressed image or an editing image; and a plurality of editing terminal units for reading said compressed image from said recording/reproducing unit via a communication line and generating said editing image.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
46 words
The image editing system according to claim 1, wherein said recording/reproducing unit has a plurality of recording media connected in parallel and records or reproduces said compressed image or said editing image through said plurality of recording media in a parallel manner at the same time.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
The image editing system according to claim 1, wherein said each editing terminal unit directly controls said recording/reproducing unit via said communication line.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
125 words
An image editing system comprising: a first image compressing unit for compressing a video signal at a first compressibility and generating a minimally compressed image; a second image compressing unit for compressing said video signal at a second compressibility and generating a highly compressed image; a first recording/reproducing unit for recording or reproducing said minimally compressed image; a second recording/reproducing unit for recording or reproducing said highly compressed image; an editing terminal unit for generating an editing procedure list based on said highly compressed image read from said second recording/reproducing unit via a communication line; and a management unit which, based on said editing procedure list, controls reading of said first recording/reproducing unit so that an editing image is generated from said minimally compressed image.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
The image editing system as set forth in claim 4, wherein said editing terminal unit directly controls said recording/reproducing unit via said communication line.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
23 words
The image editing system according to claim 5, wherein said editing procedure list is transmitted to said management unit through said communication line.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
The image editing system according to claim 4, wherein editing original data names, editing points, and effect data are recorded on said editing procedure list in a time series manner.
