Abstract
This chapter presents the framework for a system that enhances the subtitles of a video file by detecting affective audio content. A model for the visualization of general and emotional information that is typically included in the audio material of a video file (TV/movies) is implemented. Depending on its nature, the content is visualized as an animated cartoon (sound assistant) and/or in the corresponding subtitle text channel, thereby supporting the monitoring of the above material in cases of hearing-impaired viewers, or in general cases that perception of sound during playback is problematic. An animated cartoon is proposed as a way of representing the emotional content of an audio event (speech) and the general content of an audio event (type of sound) in video, while color scales on the subtitles' fonts are used to represent basic emotions.
