Abstract
Systems and methods for customizing video include providing a portion of video to an electronic display and identifying a character or personality in the portion of video. A request to perform an action regarding the portion of video may be detected and the action may be associated with the identified character or personality. The action may be performed on a second portion of video in response to the character or personality being identified in the second portion of video.
Claims18
A method for customizing video comprising:
- causing, by a processing circuit, a portion of video to be presented;
- identifying, by the processing circuit, a character or personality in the portion of video;
- detecting, by the processing circuit, a user-specified playback action corresponding to the portion of video;
- determining that user preferences for playback of video content are associated with the identified character or personality based at least in part on the detected user-specified playback action;
- providing, by the processing circuit, indicia to an electronic display comprising a notification of a suggested association between the user-specified playback action and the character or personality, wherein the character or personality is associated with the user-specified playback action based on the user preferences;
- associating, by the processing circuit, the identified character or personality in the portion of video with the user-specified playback action based, in part, on the user preferences;
- causing a second portion of video to be presented;
- identifying, by the processing circuit, the character or personality in the second portion of video;
- and
- in response to identifying the character or personality in the second portion of video, altering playback of the second portion of video based on the user-specified playback action.
A system for customizing video comprising a processor and a memory wherein the memory stores instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- cause a portion of video to be presented;
- identify a character or personality in the portion of video;
- detect a user-specified playback action corresponding to the portion of video;
- determine that user preferences for playback of video content are associated with the identified character or personality based at least in part on the detected user-specified playback action;
- provide indicia to an electronic display comprising a notification of a suggested association between the user-specified playback action and the character or personality, wherein the character or personality is associated with the user-specified playback action based on the user preferences;
- associate the identified character or personality in the portion of video with the user-specified playback action based in part on the user preferences;
- cause a second portion of video to be presented;
- identify the character or personality in the second portion of video;
- and
- in response to identifying the character or personality in the second portion of video, alter playback of the second portion of video based on the user-specified playback action.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions therein, the instructions being executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- causing a portion of video to be presented;
- identifying a character or personality in the portion of video;
- detecting a user-specified playback action corresponding to the portion of video;
- determining that user preferences for playback of video content are associated with the identified character or personality based at least in part on the detected user-specified playback action;
- providing indicia to an electronic display comprising a notification of a suggested association between the user-specified playback action and the character or personality, wherein the character or personality is associated with the user-specified playback action based on the user preferences;
- associating the identified character or personality in the portion of video with the user-specified playback action based in part on the user preferences;
- causing a second portion of video to be presented;
- identifying the character or personality in the second portion of video;
- and
- in response to identifying the character or personality in the second portion of video, altering playback of the second portion of video based on the user-specified playback action.
