Method of enhancing media content and a media enhancement system

A system comprising:

• a media player stored on a first storage medium, wherein the media player, if executed by a first processor, is configured to deliver a media selection;
• an enhancement registry stored on a second storage medium and associated with the media selection, wherein the enhancement registry includes time data associated with corresponding time points during playback of the media selection, frame location data associated with specific locations of frames of the media selection, and at least one communicative link to additional materials, wherein each of the at least one communicative link is associated with distinct time data and frame location data of the media selection;
• an interface operatively associated with the media player and configured to receive a selection during delivery of the media selection by the media player, wherein the interface is also configured to identify a time marker associated with the media selection and corresponding to a time of receipt of the selection and to identify a location marker of the media selection;
• and
• an activation assembly stored on a third storage medium and executed by a second processor, wherein the activation assembly is configured to correlate the time marker with the time data and the location marker with the frame location data to identify one of the at least one communicative link, wherein the activation assembly is also configured to activate the identified communicative link for delivery of the additional materials in response to the selection.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon, the instructions comprising:

• instructions for storing, an enhancement registry for a media selection, wherein the enhancement registry includes time data associated with corresponding time points during playback of the media selection, frame location data associated with specific locations of framse of the media selection, and at least one communicative link to additional materials, wherein each of the at least one communicative link is associated with distinct time data and frame location data of the media selection;
• instructions for processing a selection received from an interface of a media player, wherein the selection includes an identifier of the media selection, a time marker corresponding to a time of receipt of the selection and a location marker of the media selection that corresponds to the selection;
• instructions for correlating the time marker with the time data and the location marker with the frame location data to identify a communicative link;
• and
• instructions for activating, the identified communicative link in response to the selection.

A system comprising:

• means for storing an enhancement registry that is associated with a media selection, wherein the enhancement registry includes time data associated with time points during playback of the media selection, frame location data associated with specific locations of the media selection, and at least one communicative link to additional materials, wherein each of the at least one communicative link is associated with distinct time data and frame location data;
• and
• means for processing a selection received through an interface of a media player, wherein the selection includes an identifier identifying the media selection, a time marker identifying a time of receipt of the selection, and a location marker of the media selection that corresponds to the selection;
• and
• means for correlating the time marker with the time data and the location marker with the frame location data to identify one of the at least one communicative link and to activate the identified communicative link for delivery of the additional materials.
