<p>Hyperlinks within online video are useful but run the risk of overloading the viewer with visual stimuli. We disclose a video player for tagged online video, comprising a means for receiving a stream of video data and tag data, the tag data comprising details of a plurality of tags including, for each tag, a link to display during video playback and a location at which to display the link; a video display output adapted to display; the video data, a user-selectable tag display GUI option, and selectively, the tag data; a means for receiving information as to a location of a GUI pointer relative to the displayed video output; wherein the video player is adapted to detect a selection of one of at least a first and a second option via the user-selectable tag display GUI option and, where the most recent selection is the first option, display tags during playback of the video data, where the most recent selection is the second option, display tags during playback of the video data only if a GUI pointer is proximate the tag location. Thus, the user can choose to display tags either all the time, or just when they are actively interacting with the video.</p> |
