FINGERPRINT-DEFINED SEGMENT-BASED CONTENT DELIVERY

摘要

Digital content, such as video, audio, multimedia, and similar files may be segmented at a determined frame resolution rate and analyzed to determine a fingerprint for each content segment. An identifier that uniquely identifies each content segment may be determined based on the fingerprint of the respective content segment. The identifier may be associated with data relating to the content segment and with one or more identifiers that uniquely identify other content segments of the content. The content segment identifiers may be used to construct a content segment sequencing representation that represents the playback of the content segments in playback order.

主权项

1. A method for editing digital content, comprising:
reading a master version of a content segment sequencing representation comprising an ordered sequence of a plurality of nodes, wherein the ordered sequence of the plurality of nodes defines a playback order of a plurality of content segments, and wherein each node of the plurality of nodes is associated with a respective content segment of the plurality of content segments, and wherein each content segment of the plurality of content segments is created by segmenting a content file into the plurality of content segments at a predetermined frame resolution rate; interpreting a user input; and generating a second version of the content segment sequencing representation based at least in part upon the user input.
