SOLUTION FOR CAPTURING AND PRESENTING USER-CREATED TEXTUAL ANNOTATIONS SYNCHRONOUSLY WHILE PLAYING A VIDEO RECORDING

摘要

The present invention discloses a textual annotation system for video recordings. Such a system can include a video recording, an annotation interface, and an annotation manager. The annotation interface can be configured to accept and execute a set of user-selectable commands for creating, modifying, and transmitting a user-created annotation set. The user-created annotation set can contains multiple textual annotations with associated placement data. The annotation manager can be configured to display the user-created annotation set synchronously with the video recording such that the contents of the video recording are unaltered.
