Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an information recording medium in which image data provided by a customer and a slide show program for displaying the image data in a slide manner are recorded, and a production method thereof.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, an increasing number of customers are handling photographs taken by cameras as digital image data. For example,
In the digital camera, the image data stored in the information recording medium is read by a computer terminal such as a personal computer and reproduced by image display software installed in the personal computer, so that the photograph can be easily viewed.

There is also a service for converting a photograph taken by a film camera into digital image data.
For example, if you bring the filmed film to a photo service store such as a lab or a convenience store (hereinafter abbreviated as convenience store), a photo service store,
After developing a film, a negative film is read by a scanner or the like, and the read image data is written in an information recording medium such as a CD-R.

Then, the CD-on which the image data is written
A customer who receives an information recording medium such as R can view the photograph image by reproducing it using a computer terminal such as a personal computer at home, and even a customer who does not have a digital camera can view the photograph image. It can be handled as digital image data.

[0005]

However, the above-mentioned conventional data conversion service only writes a set of image data read from a film photograph on an information recording medium, and the operation of displaying the image data is performed by the customer. However, there is a problem that a series of image data cannot be effectively displayed without image reproduction software.

Therefore, there is also a method of writing a slide show program for displaying the image data in a slide manner on the information recording medium in order to enjoy the set of image data as an album. It is necessary to preset slide show conditions such as slide display order, slide display interval, and slide switching effect. Such a setting is a complicated task for a customer who is not accustomed to operating a personal computer, and cannot immediately enjoy a slide show even after receiving an information recording medium.

Therefore, it is possible to store the slide show condition in advance and execute a slide show using the stored condition, thereby omitting a complicated operation. However, if the slide show condition is set in advance, the same condition is always maintained. In some cases, a slide show desired by the customer cannot be performed because the slide display is performed. For example,
If the slide display interval is set short, you cannot fully enjoy the photo image.Conversely, if the slide display interval is set long, it takes a long time to finish viewing all the photos. Will end up. In particular, a customer who is familiar with computer operation often wants to set and customize the slide effect by himself, and there is a problem that a fixed slide effect cannot be used to enjoy a satisfactory slide show.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and its main purpose is to allow a customer who wants to enjoy a slide show with a simple operation without making complicated settings.

First, in step S101, the customer 2
Brings the undeveloped negative film 2a photographed with a film camera to an order store 3 such as a convenience store. The photographic image recorded on the undeveloped negative film 2a may be taken by the customer 2 himself or may be taken by another customer. Further, the image data is not limited to a photographic image captured by a camera, and may be image data obtained via a communication network such as the Internet or image data processed by the customer 2 using image processing software.

Next, in step S102, the customer 2
Requests the information recording medium 5 to be created at the counter 3a,
On the order form 2b of a predetermined format, additional information such as information for identifying the customer 2 and a message to be displayed together with the image data as necessary is entered. Here, when the customer 2 brings in the undeveloped negative film 2a, normally all of the photographs recorded on the undeveloped negative film 2a are written on the information recording medium 5, but the developed negative film and the information recording. When carrying the medium, only a part of the recorded photograph can be used. Therefore, when the customer 2 selects the image data in step S103, in step S104,
The image data to be used in the slide show is selected by designating the frame number of the developed negative film and the file name of the information recording medium.

Next, in step S105, the customer 2
Determines whether to select music voice data to be played as BGM of the slide show. In this embodiment, the music voice data is stored in the storage means 4d of the laboratory 4, and when selecting the music voice data, the counter 3a of the order store 3 is provided with a list of music corresponding to the music voice data. In step S106, the customer 2 specifies a desired song from the list. It is not always necessary to select the music voice data, and predetermined music voice data may be used. Further, the music voice data is not limited to that stored in the lab 4, and the customer 2 may bring and provide the music voice data of a predetermined format, such as the music voice data created by the customer 2 or It is also possible to use the music voice data acquired by the customer 2 from a music CD or the like, the music voice data acquired via a communication network such as the Internet, etc. as the BGM.

Then, in step S107, the order store 3 sends the undeveloped negative film 2a brought by the customer 2, the designation information (when the song is selected) of the music by the customer 2 and the order slip 2b to the laboratory 4. In the lab 4, when the image data is received as the undeveloped negative film 2a (step S108), it is developed by the developing means 4a in step S109, and the negative film is read by the reading means 4 such as a scanner.

Here, in the slide show, conditions such as selection of image data to be slide-displayed, display order of image data, slide display interval, slide switching effect, presence / absence of repeated display, display method of message, etc. It is necessary to set the slide show conditions collectively.) By setting these slide show conditions one by one, you can enjoy a customized slide show, but customers who are unfamiliar with PC operation or simple operation can browse the slide show. For the customer who wants to do so, setting the slide show condition is complicated.

Therefore, the slide show program of the present embodiment causes the computer to display, on the display means, a fixed mode in which the slide show condition is set to a predetermined condition and a variable mode selection screen in which the customer 2 can freely set the slide show condition. The slide show is executed in accordance with the mode selected by the customer 2 so that the slide show is executed. As a result, it is possible to provide a slide show that satisfies both a customer who desires a simple operation and a customer who desires a customized display. The detailed functions and operations of the slide show program will be described later.

After that, in step S111, the laboratory 4 sends the information recording medium 5 recording the image data, the music audio data, and the slide show program and the developed negative film 2c to the order store 3, and in step S112 the order store 3 is sent. To customer 2.

As described above, the information recording medium 5 created by the system of the present embodiment is read by a computer by a slide show program having two kinds of slide show condition setting modes in addition to the image data and the music voice data to be played as BGM. Because it is written in a possible state,
The customer 2 can enjoy the slide show in which the image data and the music audio data are integrally reproduced by simply inserting the information recording medium 5 into a personal computer or the like and selecting a desired mode.

The functions and operations of the slide show program of this embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3 to 8.

As shown in FIG. 3, the slide show program of the present embodiment uses a computer to display a plurality of image data provided by the customer 2 on an album display means 6a for displaying the image data in an album form, image data and music audio data. A slide show display means 6 for displaying a slide in association with
b, mode selection means 6c for enabling selection of fixed mode and variable mode, slide show condition setting means 6d for setting slide show conditions, slide show conditions for storing fixed mode slide show conditions, and updating the contents as necessary Storage means 6e, music voice data analyzing means 6f for analyzing music voice data and adjusting display timing of image data, analyzing image data for extracting features,
It can be made to function as the image data analysis means 6g for selecting music voice data suitable for the image data.

The slide show program of this embodiment does not require the computer to function as all of these means, and at least the slide show display means 6b, the mode selection means 6c, the slide show condition setting means 6d, and the slide show condition storage means 6e. It is sufficient to function as, and a configuration in which known means other than the above is added to function may be employed.

The operation of the slide show program will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4 and the screen configuration examples of FIGS. 5 to 8. Note that the slide show program can be a program dedicated to displaying the slide show, but the computer can also be made to function as means for processing and saving images, printing, e-mailing, uploading, etc. in association with the display of the slide show. In the following description, it will be described as having the above functions.

First, in step S201, the customer 2
When the information recording medium 5 of this embodiment is inserted into a computer terminal such as a personal computer, the slide show program is automatically activated and the menu screen 7 as shown in FIG. 5 is displayed. The menu screen 7 includes, for example, an image data group 8 in which frame image data 8a of the undeveloped negative film 2a is gathered (three image data groups are displayed in the figure), a selected image data group 8 and frame image data 8a. The switches 9 to 14 that clearly indicate the processing to be performed on are displayed. It should be noted that each image data group 8 and frame image data 8a includes a number including a shooting date, an order date, and a serial number, so that each image data group 8 and frame image data 8a can be identified. ing.

Then, in step 202, when the customer 2 selects the image data group 8 desired to be processed from the image data group 8, the album in which the frame image data 8a forming the selected image data group 8 is reduced and arranged is arranged. Is displayed. Although the albums are arranged in five columns in FIG. 5, the arrangement format of the albums is not limited to the structure shown in the figure, and the size of the frame image data 8a is reduced / enlarged according to the preference of the customer 2 to increase or decrease the number of displays. can do.

Next, in step S203, the customer 2
Selects the processing to be performed on the displayed image data group 8 or frame image data 8a and clicks the corresponding switches 9 to 14 with the mouse to display a screen corresponding to each processing. For example, when "image processing" is selected, brightness adjustment, color adjustment, etc. can be performed, and when "save" is selected, the selected image data is saved in the designated directory. Also, if you select "Email", the size of the image data to be attached to the email will be specified, the email input screen will be displayed, and the email with the selected image data will be sent to the specified address. If you select "Print", you can print the selected image data to the specified printer, and if you select "Upload",
The selected image data is uploaded to the designated server (step S204).

In the present embodiment, six processes of image processing, saving, e-mail, print, upload and slide show are shown as the processes for the image data, but the display in the figure is an example and other than the above. Processing may be performed, and processing other than the slide show may be omitted. Further, here, the case where the menu screen 7 is automatically started when the slide show program is started will be described, but when the information recording medium 5 is inserted, a slide show mode selection screen 15 to be described later is displayed and an arbitrary key is pressed. Or when the specified key is pressed, or when the normal playback is finished, the menu screen 7
May be displayed.

When "slide show" is selected in step S203, the mode selection screen 15 as shown in FIG. 6 is displayed on the menu screen 7 or as an independent screen. The mode selection screen 15 includes, for example, a fixed mode switch 15 for executing a slide show with a predetermined display order, slide display interval, slide switching effect, etc. for the selected one image data group 8.
a, a variable mode switch 15b for the customer 2 to set slide show conditions such as selection of image data to be slide-displayed, slide display order, slide display interval, slide switching effect, etc., and a switch 15c for reproducing the created slide show. Is displayed. Then, the customer 2 selects the desired mode by clicking the variable mode switch 15b when he / she wants to set the slide show condition himself, and clicking the fixed mode switch 15a when he / she does not want to set it.

First, the case where the variable mode is selected will be described. When the switch 15b on the mode selection screen 15 is clicked, a slide show setting screen 16 as shown in FIG. 7 is displayed. On the slide show setting screen 16, for example, an area in which the above-mentioned image data group 8 and each frame image data 8a are displayed, a slide effect setting area 16a such as a slide interval and a slide switching effect,
Select music audio data to be played back with image data B
A GM setting area 16b and a selected image display area 16c in which the frame image data 8a to be slide-displayed are arranged in the display order are displayed.

Next, in step S206, the customer 2 selects the frame image data 8a desired to be slide-displayed from the image data group 8. As the selection method, there are a method of designating the frame image data 8a one by one and a method of selecting all the frame image data 8a of the image data group 8 by clicking the "select all" switch. ,
When the "OK" switch is pressed, the selected frame image data 8a is displayed in the selected image display area 16c. It should be noted that the selected frame image data 8a are displayed in the designated order when designated one by one, and in order according to the data name when all are collectively selected, and they are displayed in slide order in this order. The display order can be changed by moving the frame image data 8a within the selected image display area 16c.

Next, in step S207, the customer 2
Operates the BGM setting area 16b to select music voice data to be played as BGM. As a method of selecting the music audio data, for example, when using the music audio data recorded in the information recording medium 5, "BGM of CD" is selected, and the music audio stored in another music CD or a personal computer. Select "Other music data" when downloading music audio data via data or the Internet.
When checking the music before setting the music audio data, the music can be played by clicking the "listen only to music" switch.

Next, in step S208, the customer 2
Operates the slide effect setting area 16a to set a slide effect such as a slide interval or a slide switching effect. For example, as the slide display interval, select the time to display each slide from the pull-down menu or directly enter it, and as the slide switching effect,
Use the pull-down menu to select the desired effect from among the effects of gradually displaying / erasing image data, fade-in / fade-out, gradually expanding / reducing image data, and moving image data from the top, bottom, left, and right of the screen. select.

The slide effect setting screen 16a shown in FIG.
Although not shown in FIG. 3, in addition to the above-mentioned slide interval and slide switching effect as a slide effect, a background screen of a slide show can be set and a frame of image data to be displayed can be decorated. Further, it may be possible to input a message or a character image to be displayed together with the slide display of the image data. Then, by providing such a decoration or displaying the input message as a telop type in accordance with the display of the image data, it is possible to give a range of customization and execute a slide show that reflects the intention of the customer 2. The order of selecting the image data in step S206, setting the BGM in step S207, and selecting the slide effect in step S208 is not limited to this order and can be performed in any order.

When the fixed mode is selected in step S205, the slide show setting screen 16 is displayed as in the case where the variable mode is selected. However, the selection and display order of the image data in the selected image display area 16c, Slide show conditions such as slide display intervals and slide switching effects in the slide effect setting area 16a are automatically set and displayed according to predetermined conditions as shown in FIG. For example, all the frame image data 8a of the image data group 8 is stored as the slide display image data, the slide interval is 5 seconds, and the slide switching effect such as fade-in / fade-out is stored in the slide show condition storage means 6e. Is automatically set as the slide show condition (step S209).

The slide show condition may always be the same condition, but the setting content may be automatically changed. For example, when the customer 2 selects the variable mode and sets the slide show condition by himself, the set slide show condition is stored in the slide show condition storage means 6.
You can store it in e and use it as a fixed mode setting condition,
Depending on the number of image data to be slide-displayed, if the number of image data is large, the slide interval is shortened, and if the number of image data is small, the slide interval is lengthened. It may be configured to be set.

Next, the customer 2 operates the BGM setting area 16b in the same manner as described above in step S210 to set the BG.
The music sound data to be reproduced as M is downloaded from the information recording medium 5 or from another music CD or a music distribution server and set. After that, when the "slide show start" switch in the selected image display area 16c is clicked, the frame image data 8a selected in step S211 is selected.
However, the slide show is executed in which the slide display is performed under the condition set by the customer 2 or automatically set and the music audio data selected by the customer 2 flows as BGM.

Here, in the slide show, not only the image data is displayed and the music voice data is played, but in order to enhance the effect of the slide show, the display timing of the image data and the performance timing of the music voice data are predetermined. It is preferable to have a relationship. As a slide show program having such a function, the program described in the applicant's prior application (Japanese Patent Application No. 2002-13789) is suitable. The program described in this earlier application is outlined below.

The slide show program described in the prior application is
A music sound data analysis unit 6f which causes a computer to perform a process of calculating a playing time of music sound data, a process of extracting tempo, phrase, sound data, and rest marks of music sound data, a process of setting display timing of image data, and the like.
Or the process of extracting a specific shape or color from image data,
Image data analysis means 6 for performing processing such as selecting music sound data suitable for image data by referring to the characteristics of the image data.
It can be made to function as g.

Then, for example, the playing time of the music audio data is extracted from the format and size of the music audio data, header information, etc., and the playing time is divided by the number of image data to be displayed to obtain the display time per image data. The slide show can be set so that the image data is displayed at the same time as the music music data is played, and the image data is displayed at the same time as the music data is played.

Further, the tempo of the music audio data is extracted from the strength and weakness of the music audio data, the frequency, etc., and the slide effect time (for example, fade-in / fade-out time) is set in accordance with the tempo of the music audio data, and the tempo is set. It is also possible to make the slide effect faster in the case of a music piece having a fast tempo and, conversely, lengthen the time of the slide effect in the case of a music piece having a slow tempo so as to match the tempo of the music piece with the slide effect.

Further, the voice data of the music voice data and rest marks are extracted from the strength and weakness of the music voice data, the frequency, etc. to divide the music into phrases, and for example, one image data is displayed for each phrase. A slide show can be set, and by synchronizing the phrase of the music audio data and the display of the image data, a sense of unity between the music and the image is created, and the effect of the slide show can be enhanced.

Further, image processing is performed on the image data to extract a specific shape and a specific color to infer a scene of photography, and music audio data matching the scene is pre-recorded in the music audio data. By selecting and playing from the above, the customer 2 can also enjoy a slide show in which an appropriate music is played as BGM without selecting music audio data.

As described above, the slide show program of this embodiment allows the computer to select the fixed mode in which the slide show conditions are automatically set on the display means and the variable mode in which the customer 2 himself sets the slide show conditions. Since the customer 2 can function as a means for displaying the mode selection screen 15 and can select a mode according to his / her preference, a slide show satisfying both a customer who desires a simple operation and a customer who desires a customized slide display is provided. Can be provided. Further, since the image data used for the slide show, the music audio data, and the slide show program are written as a set in the information recording medium 5 of the present embodiment in a computer-readable state, the customer 2 is the information recording medium. You can easily enjoy the slide show by inserting 5 into a computer terminal such as a personal computer.

In the above embodiment, only the data and the program are recorded on the information recording medium 5. However, in order to increase the commercial value of the information recording medium 5, the image data is recorded on the surface or jacket of the information recording medium 5. It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the music audio data is printed so that it can be identified. In that case, as shown in FIG. 9, the lab 4 is provided with a printing means 4e for printing a typical photographic image of the film provided by the customer 2 on the surface or jacket of the information recording medium 5, or for the song title or artist. The name may be printed.
