    摘要: A method and system are provided for tagging, indexing, searching, retrieving, manipulating, and editing video images on a wide area network such as the Internet. A first set of methods is provided for enabling users to add bookmarks to multimedia files, such as movies, and audio files, such as music. The multimedia bookmark facilitates the searching of portions or segments of multimedia files, particularly when used in conjunction with a search engine. Additional methods are provided that reformat a video image for use on a variety of devices that have a wide range of resolutions by selecting some material (in the case of smaller resolutions) or more material (in the case of larger resolutions) from the same multimedia file. Still more methods are provided for interrogating images that contain textual information (in graphical form) so that the text may be copied to a tag or bookmark that can itself be indexed and searched to facilitate later retrieval via a search engine.

    摘要: Techniques for poster-thumbnail and/or animated thumbnail development and/or usage to effectively navigate for potential selection between a plurality of images or programs/video files or video segments. The poster and animated thumbnail images are presented in a GUI on adapted apparatus to provide an efficient system for navigating, browsing and/or selecting images or programs or video segments to be viewed by a user. The poster and animated thumbnails may be automatically produced without human-necessary editing and may also have one or more various associated data (such as text overlay, image overlay, cropping, text or image deletion or replacement, and/or associated audio).

    摘要: Techniques are provided enabling users to search for, select and/or watch an infomercial of interest including commercials, advertisements, and the like from a recorded stream. The user's history can be analyzed in the DVR, and replacing an original advertisement in a live/recorded program by one or more other advertisement(s) belonging to a genre type from the user history stored in the DVR. A GUI is provided for an infomercial guide; and when a user selects the infomercial guide, displaying the infomercial guide so that the user can select infomercials of interest. The user may select the infomercial guide by pressing a dedicated key on a remote control. In a first window of the GUI, upper categories of infomercials that are recorded or downloaded in the DVR may be displayed. The user may select one of the upper categories of interest by moving a highlight cursor. In a second window of the GUI, a more detailed categorization of the categories based on the user's selection in the first window of the GUI may be displayed.

    摘要: Techniques for providing graphical representations of a semantic structure of XML Schema documents which can explicitly represent not only composition/aggregation relationships between related datatypes and their child elements but also inheritance relationships between supertypes and subtypes in a single GUI screen of graphical schema browsers. Compact graphical schema diagrams for representing complex relationships between datatypes and elements inherent in XML schema documents can be generated, and can easily and quickly be browsed. The techniques disclosed herein are useful for any graphical XML Schema editor that can edit XML Schema document with the GUI screen views.
