System And Method For Generating Media Bookmarks

摘要

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer-readable media for transmedia video bookmarks, the method comprising receiving a first place marker and a second place marker for a segment of video media, extracting metadata from the video media between the first and second place markers, normalizing the extracted metadata, storing the normalized metadata, first place marker, and second place marker as a video bookmark, and retrieving the media represented by the video bookmark upon request from a user. Systems can aggregate video bookmarks from multiple sources and refine the first place marker and second place marker based on the aggregated video bookmarks. Metadata can be extracted by analyzing text or audio annotations. Metadata can be normalized by generating a video thumbnail representing the video media between the first place marker and the second place marker. Multiple video bookmarks may be searchable by metadata or by the video thumbnail visually.

1. A method comprising:
identifying a plurality of videos associated with a scene, wherein each video in the plurality of videos has a start marker, an end marker, and metadata; determining, via a processor, an aggregated start mark and an aggregated end mark based on the start marker and the end marker of each video in the plurality of videos, to yield an aggregated video comprising the scene beginning at the aggregated start mark and ending at the aggregated end mark; normalizing the metadata associated with the plurality of videos, to yield normalized metadata; and associated the normalized metadata with the aggregated video.
