Abstract
The present invention relates generally to a system that creates a real-time collaboration and synchronization of multiple, disparate media components, and more particularly to a system that creates dynamic relations and includes notations and annotations in text, audio, video, bookmark, and marked area without affecting the integrity of the original media source making it possible to later search any of these components independently using regular text search or further phonetic and image recognition searches.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- receiving, via a network, a comment request in connection with a media from a media file;
- receiving, via the network, a start indicator associated with the media and the comment request;
- receiving, via the network, an end indicator associated with the media and the comment request;
- generating, without affecting an integrity of the media file, annotation data and a dynamic media link associated with the media, the annotation data including a comment associated with the comment request and associated with a portion of the media, the dynamic media link being a hyperlink, a start of the portion of the media associated with the start indicator, an end of the portion of the media associated with the end indicator;
- sending the annotation data such that the annotation data is stored in a relational database at a relational database server;
- and
- sending, via the network, the dynamic media link such that the comment and the portion of the media are displayed and synchronously played side-by-side in a user-editable form based on the annotation data stored in the relational database after receiving an indication that the dynamic media link was selected and such that the comment is not displayed during display of any remaining portions of the media, the user-editable form being received from a media server, the user-editable form allowing a user to edit a comment displayed with the media.

A method, comprising:
- receiving, via a network, (1) a comment request in connection with a media from a media file, (2) a start indicator associated with the media and the comment request, and (3) an end indicator associated with the media and the comment request;
- automatically selecting a portion of media having a start and a end in response to the comment request such that a duration of the portion of the media is equal to a duration of a comment associated with the comment request, the start of the portion of the media being defined by the start indicator, the end of the portion of the media being defined by the end indicator
- generating, without affecting an integrity of the media file, annotation data and a dynamic media link associated with the media, the annotation data including the comment, the dynamic media link being a hyperlink;
- sending the annotation data such that the annotation data is stored in a relational database at a relational database server;
- and
- sending, via the network, the dynamic media link such that the comment and the portion of the media are displayed and synchronously played side-by-side in a user-editable form based on the annotation data stored in the relational database after receiving an indication that the dynamic media link was selected and such that the comment is not displayed during display of any remaining portions of the media, the user-editable form being received from a media server, the user-editable form allowing a user to edit the comment displayed with the media or allowing the user to add a second comment to be displayed with the media.

A method, comprising:
- receiving, via a network, a media request in connection with a media from a media file;
- receiving, via the network, a start indicator associated with the media and the media request;
- receiving, via the network, an end indicator associated with the media and the media request;
- generating, without affecting an integrity of the media file, (1) a dynamic media link associated with a portion of the media and (2) data associated with the dynamic media link, the dynamic media link being a hyperlink, a start of the portion of the media being associated with the start indicator, an end of the portion of the media being associated with the end indicator;
- sending the data associated with the dynamic media link such that the data associated with the dynamic media link is stored in a relational database at a relational database server;
- and
- sending, via the network, the dynamic media link such that the portion of the media is displayed in a user-editable form based on the data associated with the dynamic media link and stored in the relational database after receiving an indication that the dynamic media link was selected and such that any remaining portions of the media are not displayed after receiving an indication that the dynamic media link was selected, the user-editable form being received from a media server, the user-editable form allowing a user to edit information displayed with the media.
