Providing a kind of known method of media demo to the user is to provide hyperlink to the file that can be downloaded and checked on the regular software playback interfaces, and still, this method has major defect.
At first, being difficult to can be searched and to be used for the effective means that demonstration indexes to audio frequency and video integrated with demonstration with text by text.A kind of known method that comprises text in media demo is to use spoken title in bottom of screen, and wherein captions are language translations of track, but this does not provide the approach that advances to the part of multimedia presentation based on specific captions for the user.Popular in moving image research with the similar another kind of known method of captions, wherein head credits present and run-out credits present (being also referred to as " crawl ") are added to the stack text.Again, these methods do not help to seek ad-hoc location in demonstration.Usually, neither one allows domestic consumer to add this text to demonstration in these methods.
Secondly, the user is difficult to seek particular moment in the multimedia presentation that they wish to check.Be used in multimedia presentation, seeking a kind of known method of particular moment and be to use the scroll bar that is linked to multimedia presentation, make scroll bar " drag " (" throw ", scroll bar in finite region move) relate to the complete length of multimedia presentation and " dragging " in mobile this multimedia presentation is moved to relative time point.Unfortunately, " dragging " of scroll bar is general limited and fixing, makes slightly moving of scroll bar that multimedia presentation was advanced several minutes, and therefore seeking particular moment in multimedia presentation may be impossible very difficult, disappointing and usually.
The another kind of known method of seeking particular moment in multimedia presentation is to use " F.F. " and " refunding " control.With scrollbar class seemingly, this control may lack the required accurate resolution of particular moment of aiming in the multimedia presentation.
The another kind of known method of seeking particular moment in multimedia presentation is to use and presets index point, goes up the scene of using as DVD and describes to separate with track on the CD.These types of index points are usually too coarse.Long two hours of some films or longer and have only 15 or 20 scene breakpoints (break); Mean that each scene may reach 10 minutes, make the user may waste a lot of minutes and wait for that they wish the scene part of checking.
Therefore, need a kind of more effective method of checking media demo that overcomes the shortcoming of above-mentioned conventional method.

Operational overview
Fig. 9 illustrates the process chart that is used for embedding at media demo the method 900 of metadata according to an embodiment.Method 900 is carried out by system 100.Though method 900 is to describe continuously, the step of method 900 or operation can be by independent elements in conjunction or are carried out side by side, perhaps asynchronously, with pipeline system, perhaps otherwise.The same sequence that does not have special requirement method 900 to describe step with this specification is carried out, unless indicate like this.
In flow points 910, the specific part of video 113 is prepared to provide to user 155 by system 100 based on request.In step 911, the user 155 at client 150 places seeks interested content in surfing on the internet, as media demo or video.In order to realize this point, client 150 is used for the known software of browsing internet (as, Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, MozillaFirefox).In certain embodiments, do not need web page or leaf on every side as mentioned above.In case find, client 150 is just asked required web page or leaf 123 to web server 120 in step 913.In response, web server 120 provides content to client 150 in step 915.
In step 916, the browser of client 150 is located the CLICK.TV code in the code of required web page or leaf, and finds quoting the CLICK.TV player.For example, code on the web page or leaf that the CLICK.TV system uses, i.e. " CLICK.TV code " can seem similar＜object type=＂ application/x-shockwave-flash ＂ data=http: //www.click.tv/ctss.swf...＜/object 〉.The first of data variable quotes the CLICK.TV player, and it is the SWF form.SWF (or Small Web Format, little Web form) be to use dedicated multimedia application file form from the Flash software generation of Adobe (being Macromedia in the past), it is optimized at dynamic the Internet distribution.The SWF file can comprise the interactivity of varying level and the animation or the applet of function.The CLICK.TV code of sign CLICK.TV player can be inserted into by means of different in the web page or leaf code at different time.For example, code can (by the people who keys in HTML page or leaf code) manually insert or for example generate automatically and insert by the software program that moves on any website.Client 150 is asked CLICK.TV player or media application 133 by programming code (for example, by the object tag request) to CLICK.TV server 130 subsequently in step 918.In response, media application 133 is downloaded to client 150 from CLICK.TV server 130 and is activated.
In step 920, media application 133 is to video server 110 request videos 113.In one embodiment, CLICK.TV player or media application 133 are located " rtmpurl " parameter and are asked video flowings with it to stream video server 110 in web page or leaf code.For example, " rtmpurl " code can look similar＜rtmpurl=rtmp: //www.click.tv/movies/Italy_France... ".For the video of downloading, media application 133 is sought " httpurl " parameter but not " rtmpurl " parameter.In step 922, video server 110 connects by communication network 140 and client 150.Video 113 is passed to client 150 by video server 110 by flow transmission (stream) or download subsequently in step 924.
In step 926, media application 133 is to all relevant note 2s 51 of CLICK.TV server 130 request and video 113.In one embodiment, media application 133 is located " mid " parameter and is asked annotation datas with it to CLICK.TV server 130 in the CLICK.TV code.For example, " mid " (film ID) parameter can look similar ＂ mid=06949f00870420c50501e82e01flc9df ＂.In step 928, the whole or subclass of the note 2 51 relevant with the video 113 that is used for this film ID is received by client 150.Media application 133 or CLICK.TV player are initialised now.
In step 930, user interface 200 is demonstrated to user 155, and in step 932, the playback of video 113 begins.In flow points 934, system 100 provides at least one specific part of video 113 to user 155 after request.After the initialization, CLICK.TV player or media application 133 continue to communicate by letter with CLICK.TV server 130 with video server 110.If its uses flow transmission, then when video when playing or when playback head (playhead) when being moved, it makes video from video server 110 outflows.When user 155 preserved note new or that edited, it sent annotation datas to CLICK.TV server 130.
Video file can be stored on the internet Anywhere, as video flowing server (for example video server 110) or traditional http server.Therefore, video file and (being stored in the CLICK.TV server 130) annotation data and CLICK.TV server separate storage, the suitable URL that makes the user only need will be used for video is inserted into the example of CLICK.TV code.Video and associated annotation by reference, selected video can be used subsequently as mentioned above.Therefore, the integrated of non-linear customer described herein interface can be simple processing.
Video (note) based on embedded metadata
