Abstract

A method and system for manipulation of audio or video signals.

Claims (26)

1. A system for manipulation of video signals comprising:

a memory mechanism having color information by pixel by video frame of the video signal;

an analyzing mechanism for analyzing color information by pixel by video frame of the video signal and identifying redundancies in the video signal over multiple and consecutive video frames, said analyzing mechanism in communication with said memory mechanism; and

a playing mechanism for playing said video signal, said playing mechanism in communication with said memory mechanism and said analyzing mechanism, said playing mechanism using the redundancies to reduce the video signal as it is played compared to how it is saved in the memory mechanism, with the video signal being played as it would otherwise be played had the video signal been played as saved in the memory mechanism.

2. A system as described in claim 1 wherein the planning mechanism is remote from the analyzing mechanism.

3. A system as described in claim 2 wherein the playing mechanism includes telecommunication lines in communication with the analyzing mechanism.

4. A system as described in claim 3 wherein the playing mechanism includes a color entry mechanism for providing pixels with a specific color.

5. A system as described in claim 4 wherein the playing mechanism includes a controller for playing desired colors of corresponding pixels from the color entry mechanism based on their corresponding starting point, said controller in communication with the color entry mechanism in the analyzing mechanism.

6. A method for manipulating video signals comprising the steps of:

receiving a video signal;

converting the video signal into a digital signal;

storing the digital signal in the memory mechanism;

playing the video signal based on the color of its pixel in its first video frame with a playing mechanism;

identifying redundancies in the video signal over multiple and consecutive video frames with an analyzing mechanism, said analyzing mechanism in communication with said memory mechanism; and

using the redundancies to reduce the video signal as it is played compared to how it is saved in the memory mechanism, with the video signal being played as it would otherwise be played had the video signal been played as saved in the memory mechanism.

7. A system for manipulation of audio signals comprising:

a memory mechanism having frequency/amplitude information by time interval of the audio signal;

an analyzing mechanism for analyzing frequency/amplitude information by time interval of the audio signal and identifying redundancies in the audio signal over multiple and consecutive time intervals, said analyzing mechanism in communication with said memory mechanism; and

a playing mechanism for playing said audio signal, said playing mechanism in communication with said memory mechanism and said analyzing mechanism, said playing mechanism using the redundancies to reduce the audio signal as it is played compared to how it is saved in the memory mechanism, with the audio signal being played as it would otherwise be played had the audio signal been played as saved in the memory mechanism.

8. A method for manipulating audio signals comprising the steps of:

receiving an audio signal;

converting the audio signal into a digital signal;

storing the digital signal in the memory mechanism;

playing the audio signal based on frequency/amplitude of its first time interval with a playing mechanism;

identifying redundancies in the audio signal over multiple and consecutive time intervals with an analyzing mechanism, said analyzing mechanism in communication with said memory mechanism; and

using the redundancies to reduce the audio signal as it is played compared to how it is saved in the memory mechanism, with the audio signal being played as it would otherwise be played had the audio signal been played as saved in the memory mechanism.
