An article is moulded by placing a charge of resinous material (46) between two relatively movable mould parts (10, 12), applying a vacuum (at 32) to bring the mould parts together and to cause the material (46) to flow to the edges of the minimum-volume cavity thus defined between the mould parts. The material (46) is non-flowable at ambient temperature and is heated in the mould. The edges of th...

Scene changes in a video sequence are detected by generating data representing the amount of information present in each video frame. This information is processed in such a way that significant changes in the information content are identified as positions where scene changes are likely to occur. The amount of information present in each video frame is determined by compressing the video in accor...
