View Patent ↗An approach provides editing of digital media. A platform, as maintained by a service provider, provides a remote proxy editing capability of a plurality of media streams. A first one of the media streams is transmitted to a player of a first customer of the service provider. Further, the method comprises transmitting a second one of the media streams to a player of a second customer of the service provider.
1. A method for editing digital media, the method comprising:
maintaining a platform of a service provider, wherein the platform is configured to provide a remote proxy editing capability of a plurality of media streams;
transmitting a first one of the media streams to a player of a first customer of the service provider; and
transmitting a second one of the media streams to a player of a second customer of the service provider.
2. A method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
generating an index file for the first media stream during the recording of a corresponding digital media, wherein the index file includes indices for decoding the corresponding digital media; and
periodically updating the index file throughout the recording of the corresponding digital media.
3. A method according to claim 2 , wherein the corresponding digital media represents video information that is encoded according to a Group of Pictures (GOP) format.
4. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the platform is further configured to execute a workflow application that includes proxy viewing, logging and editing, craft editing, and delivery of the digital media.
5. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the first media stream is transmitted to a plurality of players of the first customer.
6. A method according to claim 1 , wherein the digital media is output from a live feed.
7. A system for editing digital media, the system comprising:
a platform corresponding to a service provider, wherein the platform is configured to provide a remote proxy editing capability of a plurality of media streams, the platform including a media server configured to transmit a first one of the media streams to a player of a first customer of the service provider, and to transmit a second one of the media streams to a player of a second customer of the service provider.
8. A system according to claim 7 , wherein the platform is further configured to generate an index file for the first media stream during the recording of a corresponding digital media, the index file including indices for decoding the corresponding digital media, the index file being periodically updated throughout the recording of the corresponding digital media.
9. A system according to claim 8 , wherein the corresponding digital media represents video information that is encoded according to a Group of Pictures (GOP) format.
10. A system according to claim 7 , wherein the platform is further configured to execute a workflow application that includes proxy viewing, logging and editing, craft editing, and delivery of the digital media.
11. A system according to claim 7 , wherein the first media stream is transmitted to a plurality of players of the first customer.
12. A system according to claim 7 , wherein the digital media is output from a live feed.
13. A system for editing digital media, the system comprising:
means for providing a remote proxy editing capability of a plurality of media streams;
means for transmitting a first one of the media streams to a player of a first customer of a service provider; and
means for transmitting a second one of the media streams to a player of a second customer of the service provider.
14. A system according to claim 13 , further comprising:
means for generating an index file for the first media stream during the recording of a corresponding digital media, wherein the index file includes indices for decoding the corresponding digital media; and
means for periodically updating the index file throughout the recording of the corresponding digital media.
15. A system according to claim 14 , wherein the corresponding digital media represents video information that is encoded according to a Group of Pictures (GOP) format.
16. A system according to claim 13 , wherein the means for providing the remote proxy editing capability is configured to execute a workflow application that includes proxy viewing, logging and editing, craft editing, and delivery of the digital media.
17. A system according to claim 13 , wherein the first media stream is transmitted to a plurality of players of the first customer.
18. A system according to claim 13 , wherein the digital media is output from a live feed.
