==INTELLIGENT MEDIA CONTENT PLAYBACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17662028 titled 'INTELLIGENT MEDIA CONTENT PLAYBACK

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a technology for creating a media content presentation based on user input criteria and playback instructions.

* Users can specify criteria related to media source data.
* The technology accesses the media source data and determines matching segments based on the input criteria.
* Matching segments are selected from metadata information that describes the segments.
* The media playback content is generated using the matching segments.
* Users can also provide instructions on how to play the matching segments, such as in linear order or based on scene impactfulness.
* Matching scenes can be repeated and augmented with annotation data.
* Users can specify playback speed and audio volume for each matching scene or transition between scenes.
* The media content presentation can be adjusted to fit a specified time constraint.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

The disclosed technology is directed towards creating a media content presentation for playback, based on user specified input criteria and playback instructions. A user specifies input criteria related to media source data. The media source data is accessed, and further based on the input criterion, matching segments (e.g., scenes and audio) are determined from metadata information that describes the segments; the media playback content is generated from the matching segments. A user may also specify criteria/instructions that describe how to play the matching segments, such as in linear order, or based on relative relevance such as scene impactfulness. A matching scene can be repeated, and/or augmented with annotation data. For any matching scene or transition between two matching scenes, specified playback speed and audio volume can be specified and applied. As part of generation, the media content presentation can be fit to a specified time constraint.
