MEDIA ASSET PROXIES

摘要

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for creating and using media asset proxies. The media asset proxies represent a digital media asset and are created by filtering and modifying elements from the digital media asset. The media asset proxies can be queried in the same manner as their corresponding digital media asset.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
parsing a digital media asset having a file structure and media data to identify a plurality of elements; removing a portion of the plurality of elements according to a removal criteria to yield a reduced plurality of elements; generating a set of new elements by modifying one or more of the reduced plurality of elements according to a predetermined algorithm; and using the set of new elements to create a media asset proxy to represent the digital media asset, wherein the media asset proxy excludes the media data and can support a set of queries supported by the digital media asset.
