3. The method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the consecutive semantics are selected from a group including at least one of scenes changes in the video content, selected metadata associated with the video content, selected tags associated with the video content, and selected audio associated with the video content, and selected statistic values of the video content.
1. A method for controlling replay for video content in a trick mode of operation, the method comprising: receiving a trick mode command; determining a trick mode frame rate as a function of a time interval between consecutive semantics in the video content, a time duration of the video content, a number of occurrences for the semantics in the video content and a frame rate in a normal play mode of the video content; and wherein the video content related to the time interval in the trick mode defined by the received trick mode command is displayed at the trick mode frame rate, said trick mode frame rate, V i , is determined as V i =[T i /T]×(N×L×M), where T i is a time interval between an i th and an (i+1) th consecutive semantics in the video content, T is a time duration of the video content, N is a number of occurrences for the semantics in the video content, and M is a frame rate in a normal play mode.
