Video processing device for embedding authored metadata and methods for use therewith
A video processing device includes a metadata authoring device, that generates time-coded metadata in response to content recognition data and in accordance with at least one time stamp of a video signal. A metadata association device generates a processed video signal from the video signal, wherein the processed video signal includes the time-coded metadata.
1. A video processing device comprising:
a metadata authoring device, that generates time-coded metadata in response to content recognition data and in accordance with at least one time stamp of a video signal associated with content of the video signal at time-coded locations in the video signal, wherein the time-coded metadata includes at least one universal resource locator, and wherein the metadata authoring device analyzes the video signal based on a pattern recognition to generate the content recognition data and identifies the at least one universal resource locator based on the content recognition data; and
a metadata association device, coupled to the metadata authoring device, that generates a processed video signal from the video signal, wherein the processed video signal includes a video stream in a compressed video format having the time-coded metadata embedded at the time-coded locations in the video stream corresponding to the content of the video signal associated with the time-coded metadata.
2. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the metadata authoring device includes a graphical user interface.
3. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the universal resource locator provides a link to media related to content indicated by the content recognition data, wherein the media includes at least one of: text data, audio data, video data, and image data, and wherein the link is generated by the metadata authoring device based on the content recognition data.
4. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the time-coded metadata includes at least one of: text data, audio data, video data, and image data.
5. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the content recognition data includes at least one keyword and the metadata authoring device searches for the time-coded metadata based on the at least one keyword.
6. The video processing device of claim 5 wherein the metadata authoring device searches for the time-coded metadata from at least one of: locally stored files and Internet search results.
7. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the metadata authoring device generates the time-coded metadata based on text included in the content recognition data.
8. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the metadata association device generates the processed video signal by combining the time-coded metadata with the video signal at the time-coded locations in accordance with the at least one time stamp.
9. The video processing device of claim 1 wherein the metadata association device generates the processed video signal by embedding the time-coded metadata as a watermark on the video signal.
10. A method comprising:
generating time-coded metadata, via a video processing device, in response to content recognition data that indicates content of a video signal and in accordance with at least one time stamp of the video signal associated with content of the video signal at time-coded locations in the video signal, wherein the time-coded metadata includes at least one universal resource locator, wherein the content recognition data generated by analyzing the video signal based on a pattern recognition to generate and wherein the at least one universal resource locator is identified based on the content recognition data; and
generating a processed video signal from the video signal via the video processing device, wherein the processed video signal includes a video stream in a compressed video format having the time-coded metadata embedded at the time-coded locations in the video stream corresponding to the content of the video signal associated with the time-coded metadata.
11. The method of claim 10 wherein the time-coded metadata is generated via a graphical user interface.
12. The method of claim 10 wherein universal resource locator provides a link to media related to content indicated by the content recognition data, wherein the media includes at least one of: text data, audio data, video data, and image data, and wherein the link is generated based on the content recognition data.
13. The method of claim 10 wherein the time-coded metadata includes at least one of: text data, audio data, video data, and image data.
14. The method of claim 10 wherein user input data includes at least one keyword and the metadata authoring device searches for the time-coded metadata based on the at least one keyword.
15. The method of claim 14 wherein generating the time-coded metadata includes searching at least one of: locally stored files and Internet search results.
16. The method of claim 14 the time-coded metadata are generated based on text included in the user input data.
17. The method of claim 10 wherein the processed video signal is generated by combining the time-coded metadata with the video signal at time-coded locations in accordance with the at least one time stamp.
18. The method of claim 10 wherein the processed video signal is generated by embedding the time-coded metadata as a watermark on the video signal.
