Abstract
A media presentation system ingests and stores media data for recordings (e.g., of events such as meetings, presentations, conferences) and provides short sections of media known as clips, that reference ranges of the full recording, with all clips referencing the same underlying media data stored by the system. The system also enables embedding of any number of arbitrarily sized (e.g., by time and dimensions) clips in a web page or document.
Claims16
A method for documenting events, the method comprising:
- generating a graphical user interface that enables a user to author and edit multimedia documents including embedding reference data defining referenced portions (clips) of time-indexed content from the events into user-specified locations on pages of the documents, the time-indexed content including a transcript text layer providing a transcript of speech in the time-indexed content;
- maintaining the documents in a server system;
- retrieving at least one of the documents from the server system and displaying the retrieved document(s) to users with access to the retrieved document(s);
- and
- enabling the users to selectively display transcript text corresponding to the referenced portions,
- wherein a clip's reference data are stored with the pages in which they are embedded, and
- wherein when a page with embedded clips is searched any piece of any layer of any embedded clip matching the search, except for layers that are excluded based on user-specified search parameters, will be found and represented in the search results.
