Information processing device, information processing method, program, and information storage medium
To provide an information processing device, an information processing method, a program, and an information storage medium that make it possible to reproduce vibration of a controller according to conditions of execution of a program. A play time vibration control section ( 44 ) performs control to vibrate a controller according to conditions of execution of a program. A capture control section ( 46 ) performs control to capture a moving image showing executed contents of the program. An associating section ( 48 ) associates vibration information indicating a vibration of the controller with at least part of the captured moving image, the at least part of the captured moving image being associated with an image displayed on a display section in timing in which the controller is controlled to vibrate.
1. An information processing method comprising:
recording a video of a video program executed by a player using a controller of an information processing device,
wherein the user utilizes the controller to provide input to the information processing device during execution of the video game program;
recording, simultaneously with the video, a vibration control recording comprising a vibration control signal output by the information processing device to the controller during execution of the video game program,
associating each video frame of the video with a corresponding vibration control signal from the vibration control recording occurring at a same timing of the video frame;
reproducing, on a display of an other information processing device, the video,
wherein the corresponding control vibration signal, for each video frame of the video, is displayed as a vibration image in a portion of the frame as the video is reproduced;
analyzing the vibration image for each video frame of the video as the video is reproduced to determine a control signal, and
vibrating an other controller of the other information processing device in accordance with the control signal as the video is reproduced.
2. The information processing method according to claim 1 ,
wherein a strength of the control signal output to the other controller is proportional to a size of the vibration image.
3. The information processing method according to claim 1 ,
wherein a strength of the control signal output to the other controller is proportional to a position of the vibration image in the video frame.
4. The information processing method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the vibration image is a frame surrounding a user video of the user recorded during execution of the video game program.
5. The information processing method according to claim 4 ,
wherein a strength of the control signal output to the other controller is proportional to a pattern of the frame surrounding the user.
6. The information processing method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the vibration control recording is stored separate from the video.
7. The information processing method according to claim 1 ,
wherein a vibration control recording associated with the video when the video is reproduced on the other information processing device is different from the vibration control recording stored on the information processing device.
