Abstract

A system includes: a server including first circuitry and a memory that stores, for each event, voice data recorded during the event, text data converted from the voice data, and time information indicating a time when the text data was generated; and a display control apparatus communicably connected with the server, including second circuitry to based on information on the event stored in the memory, control a display to display text data in an order according to the time when the text data was generated, and a graphical control region that sets playback position in a total playback time of the voice data, and in response to selection of particular text data from the text data being displayed, control the display to display the graphical control region at a location determined based on a time when the particular text data was generated.

Claims (83)

1. A display control apparatus, comprising:

circuitry configured to:

receive text data converted from voice data, and time information from a server that manages content data generated during an event;

control a display to:

display the text data in an order according to the time information, and

display a graphical control region, at a first display location, that sets playback position in a total playback time of the voice data;

receive selection of first text data from the text data being displayed;

determine, by referring to the time information, a second display location which is different from the first display location, the second display location corresponding to the time information of the first text data; and

control the display to display the graphical control region at the second display location.

2. The display control apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to start playback of the voice data from a time that the first text data is generated.

3. The display control apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the graphical control region further indicates a playback progress of the voice data.

4. The display control apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the graphical control region is a seek bar.

5. The display control apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to:

receive, from the server that manages content data generated during the event, screenshot image data associated with the text data; and

control the display to further display the screenshot image data, in the order according to the time information.

6. The display control apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is further configured to:

in response to selection of the first text data, obtain, from the first text data, a content processing identifier for identifying conversion processing that has been applied to generate the first text data from corresponding voice data;

obtain the time information using the content processing identifier; and

determine the second display location of the graphical control region based on the time information.

7. The display control apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first text data corresponds to one sentence of speech.

8. A system, comprising:

the display control apparatus of claim 1 ; and

the server which is communicably connected with the display control apparatus, the server including:

a memory that stores, for each event, voice data recorded during the event, text data converted from the voice data, and time information; and

another circuitry configured to transmit information on the event stored in the memory to the display control apparatus.

9. The system of claim 8 , further comprising:

a communication terminal communicably connected with the server and configured to transmit voice data collected during an event to the server.

10. A system, comprising:

a memory that stores voice data recorded during the event, text data converted from the voice data, and time information for an event; and

first circuitry and second circuitry configured to cooperate together to:

control a display to:

display text data in an order according to the time information, and

display a graphical control region, at a first display location, that sets playback position in a total playback time of the voice data;

determine, by referring to the time information, a second display location which is different from the first display location, the second display location corresponding to the time information of the first text data; and

control the display to display the graphical control region at the second display location.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein

the first circuitry is further configured to transmit screen data generated based on the information on the event stored in the memory to the second circuitry, and

the second circuitry displays a screen based on the screen data, the screen including the text data arranged in the order according to the time information, and the graphical control region that sets playback position in a total playback time of the voice data.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the second circuitry is further configured to:

in response to selection of the first text data, obtain, from the first text data, a content processing identifier for identifying conversion processing that has been applied to generate the first text data from corresponding voice data;

transmit the content processing identifier to the first circuitry to obtain the time information; and

determine the second display location of the graphical control region based on the time information.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein

the first circuitry is further configured to transmit the information on the event to the second circuitry, and

the second circuitry generates screen data based on the information on the event, and controls the display to display a screen based on the screen data, the screen including the text data arranged in the order according to the time information, and the graphical control region that sets playback position in a total playback time of the voice data.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the second circuitry is further configured to:

in response to selection of the first text data, obtain, from the first text data, a content processing identifier for identifying conversion processing that has been applied to generate the first text data from corresponding voice data;

obtain the time information using the content processing identifier; and

determine the second display location of the graphical control region based on the time information.

15. The system of claim 10 , further comprising:

a server including the first circuitry; and

a display control apparatus communicably connected with the server, wherein

the display control apparatus includes the second circuitry.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the second circuitry of the display control apparatus is configured to:

control the display to display the text data in the order according to the time information, and display the graphical control region, at the first display location,

determine, by referring to the time information, the second display location; and

control the display to display the graphical control region at the second display location.

17. A display control method, comprising:

receiving text data converted from voice data, and time information from a server that manages content data generated during an event;

displaying, on a display, the text data in an order according to the time information;

displaying, on the display at a first display region, a graphical control region that sets playback position in a total playback time of the voice data;

receiving selection of first text data from the text data being displayed;

determining, by referring to the time information, a second display location which is different from the first display location, the second display location corresponding to the time information of the first text data; and

controlling the display to display the graphical control region at the second display location.

18. The display control method of claim 17 , further comprising:
