Method and apparatus for editing video in electronic device
According to various embodiments, an electronic device includes: a memory including a first area and a second area having different logical addresses and at least one processor connected to the memory. The at least one processor may be configured to: apply a hidden attribute to a second image generated by editing a first image stored in the first area; generate a temporary file for restoring the first image or the second image, based on at least some frames; locate the first image in the second area by changing a logical address of the first image; release the second image from the hidden attribute in response to identifying the first image as being located in the second area; and delete the temporary file in response to releasing the second image from the hidden attribute.
1 . An electronic device comprising:
a memory configured to include a first area and a second area having different logical addresses; and
at least one processor comprising processing circuitry and connected to the memory, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to:
generate a second image by editing a first image stored in the first area,
store the second image as a file hidden in the first area that prevents the file from being recognized or displayed by a multimedia file management application by applying an attribute to hide the second image,
generate and store in the memory a temporary file comprising metadata and at least some frames of the first image or second image, the temporary file being configured to enable restoration of the first image or the second image,
change a logical address of the first image to locate the first image in the second area,
restore and expose the hidden second image by (i) determining, based on the temporary file, that the first image is located in the second area, and (ii) removing the attribute, wherein expose includes making the second image visible in the first area and accessible to the multimedia file management application, and
delete the temporary file stored in the memory in response to restoring and exposing the second image.
2 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the metadata comprises at least one of path information of the first image in the first area, path information of the second image to which the hidden attribute is applied, editing information for the second image, and path information for the first image in the second area.
3 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least some frames used to generate the temporary file include a specified frame irrelevant to the first image and the second image.
4 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to display the temporary file.
5 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first area is configured to be accessible by a user and is allocated a first logical address, and
the second area is configured to be inaccessible by the user and is allocated a second logical address.
6 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to restore the first image, based on at least one of the path information of the first image in the first area and path information of the first image in the second area, included in the in temporary file.
7 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to restore the second image, based on at least one of path information of the second image to which the hidden attribute is applied and editing information for the second image, included in the temporary file.
8 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to determine whether first information for the first image in the temporary file matches second information for the first image in the second image based on an image editing application being abnormally terminated before changing the location of the first image from the first area to the second area.
9 . The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to change the location of the first image from the first area to the second area by changing the logical address of the first image, based on determining that the first information matches the second information.
10 . The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, controls the electronic device to: identify the first image in view of the first information and the second information, based on determining that the first information does not match the second information, and change the location of the first image from the first area to the second area by changing the logical address of the first image.
11 . A method of operating an electronic device, the method comprising:
generating a second image by editing a first image stored in a first area,
storing the second image as a file hidden in the first area that prevents the file from being recognized or displayed by a multimedia file management application by applying an attribute to hide the second image,
generating and storing in memory a temporary file comprising metadata and at least some frames of the first image or second image, the temporary file being configured to enable restoration of the first image or the second image,
changing a logical address of the first image to locate the first image in a second area,
restoring and exposing the hidden second image by (i) determining, based on the temporary file, that the first image is located in the second area, and (ii) removing the attribute, wherein expose includes making the second image visible in the first area and accessible to the multimedia file management application, and
delete the temporary file stored in the memory in response to restoring and exposing the second image.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the metadata comprises at least one of path information of the first image in the first area, path information of the second image to which the hidden attribute is applied, editing information for the second image, and path information for the first image in the second area.
13 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising displaying the temporary file.
14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the at least some frames used to generate the temporary file include a specified frame irrelevant to the first image and the second image.
15 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising restoring the first image, based on at least one of the path information of the first image in the first area and path information of the first image in the second area, included in the in temporary file.
16 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising restoring the second image, based on at least one of path information of the second image to which the hidden attribute is applied and editing information for the second image, included in the temporary file.
