System for generating and distributing content editing information
View Patent ↗A method includes generating a content editing command file devoid of content by editing content. The content editing command file may be used to edit other copies of the same content that was edited to generate the content editing command file. Multiple content editing command files having some variability may be combined to form an aggregated content editing command file.
1. A method in a content editing device for generating a content editing command file, the method comprising:
editing content, in the content editing device, using editing commands;
generating a content editing command file in the content editing device while editing the content, the content editing command file generated using the same editing commands used to edit the content, the content editing command file capable of editing other copies of the content edited wherein the content editing command file is devoid of the content capable of being edited;
compiling first and second content editing command files into a single aggregated content editing command file, each of the first and second content editing command files generated from editing commands used to edit corresponding first and second copies of the same content.
2. The method of claim 1 , editing another copy of the content, in the content editing device, using the content editing command file devoid of the content edited.
3. The method of claim 1 , each of the first and second editing command files comprises different editing commands.
4. The method of claim 1 , editing the content includes editing digital content, generating the content editing command file includes generating a digital content editing command file devoid of the digit content edited.
5. The method of claim 1 , editing the content includes editing digital video content, generating the content editing command file includes generating a digital video content editing command file devoid of the digit video content edited.
6. The method of claim 1 , editing content includes deleting a portion of the content, generating the content editing command file including content deletion commands used to delete a portion of the content.
7. The method of claim 1 , editing content includes compressing a portion of the content, generating the content editing command file including content compression commands used to compress a portion of the content.
8. A server in a communication network, the server comprising: a controller, the controller including a reception module for receiving a plurality of content editing files, each of the plurality of content editing files containing different content editing information for common content; and the controller including a compilation module configured for compiling the plurality of content editing files into an aggregated content editing file.
9. The server of claim 8 , the content editing information of the plurality of content editing files includes editing commands for the common content, the compilation module configured for compiling the plurality of content editing files by averaging the editing commands in each of the plurality of content editing files.
10. The server of claim 8 , the content editing information of the plurality of content editing files includes different types of editing commands for the common content, the compilation module configured for compiling the plurality of content editing files based on editing command type.
11. The server of claim 8 , the controller further comprising an instruction module for downloading command instructions by which to generate a content editing file.
12. The server of claim 8 , the controller further comprising a distribution module for distributing the aggregated content editing file.
13. The server of claim 12 , the controller further comprising a separate content distribution module for distributing content files separately and apart from the aggregated content editing file.
14. The server of claim 12 , the aggregated content editing file devoid of the common content.
15. A method in a content editing device for generating a content editing command file, the method comprising: obtaining, at the content editing device, a first content editing command file for editing content;
obtaining, at the content editing device, a second content editing command file for editing the content, each of the first and second content editing command files including editing commands for editing the content, the first and second content editing command files including variability in the editing commands;
compiling, at the content editing device, the first and second content editing command files into a single aggregated content editing command file, wherein the single aggregated content editing command file is for editing the content.
16. The method of claim 15 , each of the first and second content editing command files generated from editing commands used to edit corresponding first and second copies of the content.
