  • Patent number: 7934011
    Abstract: A web-based video editing system includes a communication device configured to: generate information indicative of points of interest of a video, the points of interest being indicative of one or more active data or one or more inactive data during a selected time interval; determine an identity of each of the active data, and a required amount of an identified active data during the selected time interval; and request the identified active data and the required amount of each of the identified active data. The system also includes: a web server configured to: receive the requested information, assign a unique identifier to the identified active data and transmit a redirect to the communication device. The system also includes: a custom web server configured to: receive and transmit to the communication device information indicative of the unique identifiers and the required amount of each of the identified active data.

  • Publication number: 20080183844
    Abstract: A system and method for online video editing allowing multiple users to simultaneously edit a production in real time. The system includes a method for exchanging asynchronous messages between a client computer and a server. The system further includes an atomic data structure of commands for manipulating multimedia assets. Client computers subscribe to a production on the server. Changes made to the production on the client computer are applied to the local state of the production and are also transmitted to the server via asynchronous messaging. The server checks for conflicts, resolves the conflicts, applies any necessary changes to the state of the production on the server, and pushes any resulting changes to the production to all subscribing client computers via asynchronous messaging.
