Abstract: Providing overlapping time range redactions in media items like digital videos is disclosed without loss of information about the individual redactions therein. For example, a platform receives a set of redactions associated with a media item where at least some of the redactions overlap. A process is performed to determine a set of non-overlapping time ranges based on the set of redactions, where the redaction information is associated with individual non-overlapping time ranges. The correct redaction information from the corresponding overlapping time ranges will be applied to the non-overlapping time range redaction. This single non-overlapping redaction is stored as a single unit and has the advantage of requiring less storage space and processing power than multiple overlapping redactions, while retaining, in one implementation, all of the corresponding redaction information (e.g., labels) of the original correspondence overlapping redactions.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide several novel methods for generating a navigation presentation that displays a device navigating a route on a map. The method of some embodiments uses a virtual camera that, based on detected changes in the navigation context, dynamically modifies the way it captures portions of the map to produce different navigation scenes in the navigation presentation. To generate the navigation scenes, the method of some embodiments (1) identifies different sets of attributes that describe the different navigation contexts at different times during the navigation presentation, and (2) uses these different sets of attributes to identify different styles for operating the virtual camera. In some embodiments, the method uses an identified style to specify the virtual camera's positional attributes, which, in turn, define the portions of the map that the virtual camera identifies for rendering to produce several navigation scenes for a period of time (e.g.
