Information processing apparatus and control method
An information processing apparatus executes an application for transmitting and receiving video and voice to and from another information processing apparatus through a network, and includes a processor that: captures a screen area including at least a part of a picture among screen areas of a display in which the picture received from the other information processing apparatus using the application is displayed, as a still image file every predetermined time; and displays, on the display, at least a part of images of a series of captured still image files while continuing the capture every predetermined time during the running of the application.
1. An information processing apparatus that executes an application for transmitting and receiving video and voice to and from another information processing apparatus through a network, comprising:
a processor that:
captures a screen area including at least a part of a picture among screen areas of a display in which the picture received from the other information processing apparatus using the application is displayed, as a still image file every predetermined time;
displays, on the display, at least a part of images of a series of captured still image files while continuing the capture every predetermined time during the running of the application; and
generates, as one data file, each of images of the series of captured still image files that are allocated page by page in a capture order.
2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor:
displays, on the display, a user interface used to make each of the series of captured still image files selectable correspondingly in a capture order, and
displays, on the display, an image of a still image file selected based on an operation to the user interface.
3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor captures a full screen area of the display.
4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor captures a window area of the application in which the picture is displayed among the screen areas of the display.
5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor captures a part of an area specified from among the screen areas of the display.
6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor:
detects a specific area from the picture by performing image analysis on the picture, and
captures the detected specific area from among the screen areas of the display.
7. An information processing apparatus that executes an application for transmitting and receiving video and voice to and from another information processing apparatus through a network, comprising:
a processor that:
captures a screen area including at least a part of a picture among screen areas of a display in which the picture received from the other information processing apparatus using the application is displayed, as a still image file every predetermined time;
displays, on the display, at least a part of images of a series of captured still image files while continuing the capture every predetermined time during the running of the application;
compares an image of a still image file captured this time with an image of a still image file previously captured each time the image is captured and determines a similarity; and
excludes, from a display target to be displayed on the display, an image of a still image file whose degree of the similarity to the image of the still image file previously captured is determined to be a predetermined threshold value or more.
8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor:
compares an image of a still image file captured this time with an image of a still image file previously captured each time the image is captured and determines a similarity, and
generates, as one data file, remaining still image files after still image files whose degrees of the similarity to the image of the still image file previously captured are determined to be the predetermined threshold value or more are excluded from the series of still image files, in a manner to be allocated page by page in the capture order.
9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor generates the one data file based on images of captured still image files while continuing the capture every predetermined time during the running of the application.
10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor starts the capture when detecting that the application has occupied a microphone or a speaker.
11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the processor ends the capture when determining that the application has released the microphone or the speaker.
12. A control method for an information processing apparatus that executes an application for transmitting and receiving video and voice to and from another information processing apparatus through a network, the control method comprising:
capturing a screen area including at least a part of a picture among screen areas of a display in which the picture received from the other information processing apparatus using the application is displayed, as a still image file every predetermined time;
displaying, on the display, at least a part of images of a series of captured still image files while continuing the capture every predetermined time during the running of the application; and
generating, as one data file, each of images of the series of captured still image files that are allocated page by page in a capture order.
