Reproduction control apparatus, reproduction control method, and program

A computer-implemented method for slow-motion reproduction of video data including a plurality of frames stored on a storage device. The method includes receiving a frame from the plurality of frames stored on the storage device. The method further includes extracting at least one feature from the received frame. Additionally, the method includes comparing the at least one extracted feature with a plurality of pre-determined features. The method also includes reproducing the received frame at a slow-motion reproduction rate upon determination that the at least one extracted feature corresponds to at least one pre-determined feature from the plurality of pre-determined features. Further, the slow-motion reproduction rate is lower than a normal reproduction rate used for viewing the plurality of frames during normal playback.
