On pages 8 and 9, Appellants argue that San fails to teach a method of using a second processor that controls the video program editing operation in response to user input through the input device as required by the method claims 1 through 23. Appellants further argue on pages 9 through 11 that San does not teach stopping the execution of the program at a desired display frame to be edited as required by the independent method claims 1 and 10. On pages 14 through 16 of the brief, Appellants argue that San fails to disclose a second processor that controls video program editing operations as required by the apparatus claims, claims 24 through 27, 29 and 30.

We find that San fails to contemplate in any way the problem of interactively editing a videographic program being executed in 6Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
