<p>The technology disclosed relates to appending an interactive object layer to an online media, such as an online video, tablet or PC media player, for providing information and actions including data storage objects that are associated with the unique ID number of the playing file. The object layer is structured as one or more virtual grids of cells. Each grid is associated with a portion of the video, referred to as "dropzone." Actions are associated with individual cells in the grids. The actions can be associated with portions of images being displayed by the player, such as images of products, places, people, etc. The actions can further initiate activities such as accessing information about the underlying portion of the image, initiating a purchase transaction for an item, initiating a query for information, and the like. The technology disclosed further relates to displaying a separate media layer object as an overlay of the video player, which indicates the presence of the object layer. The media layer, its objects, and the video player can be displayed by a web browser in a web page. The interactive object layer, its objects and video player can be executed in a separated manner. A user can interact with the object layer, e.g., by clicking on ones of the cells for which actions are defined. The actions are automatically executed at that point.</p> |
