  • Scripting solution for interactive audio generation

    Abstract: A script file includes a text section that has a text label to designate a point during execution of the script sequence when an audio rendition of a video event is to be initiated. The script file also includes a container that maintains audio content within the script file. The audio content is identified in the container with a content label that corresponds to a text label in the text section. The audio content is initiated to be generated as the audio rendition at the designated point during execution of the script sequence when the script file is executed and when a script processor determines that the content label corresponds to the text label.
