Video container with editable presentation objects
A processing device is configured to obtain at least one video track comprising compressed video, and to combine the video track with one or more presentation objects into a video container. The one or more presentation objects are configured for presentation in an object layer arranged as an overlay relative to a video layer comprising decompressed video of the video track in conjunction with playback of the video container. For example, the one or more presentation objects can comprise images, sets of text and/or animation objects. The one or more presentation objects are illustratively editable by a user subsequent to the combination of those presentation objects with the video track into the video container, and remain separate from the video track and any associated audio tracks and/or sets of subtitles in the video container.

wherein the one or more presentation objects are configured for presentation in an object layer arranged as an overlay relative to a video layer comprising decompressed video of the video track in conjunction with playback of the video container.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the one or more presentation objects are editable by a user subsequent to the combination of those presentation objects with the video track into the video container.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the one or more presentation objects remain separate from the video track in the video container.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the video container further comprises at least one of:
one or more audio tracks associated with the video track; and
one or more sets of subtitles associated with the video track;
wherein the one or more presentation objects are separate from said at least one of the one or more audio tracks and the one or more subtitles.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise at least one image.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise a plurality of distinct images and wherein at least a particular one of the plurality of distinct images is automatically selected for presentation in the object layer in conjunction with playback of the video container.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise at least one set of text.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise a plurality of distinct sets of text and wherein at least a particular one of the plurality of distinct sets of text is automatically selected for presentation in the object layer in conjunction with playback of the video container.
9. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise at least one animation object.
10. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise a plurality of distinct animations and wherein at least a particular one of the plurality of distinct animations is automatically selected for presentation in the object layer in conjunction with playback of the video container.
11. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the video container further comprises one or more sets of instructions for controlling automatic selection and presentation of at least a particular one of the one or more presentation objects in the object layer in conjunction with playback of the video container.
12. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the one or more sets of instructions are editable by a user to adjust a manner in which the one or more presentation objects are presented in the object layer in conjunction with playback of the video container.
13. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the video container further comprises one or more sets of embedded fonts for rendering text of at least one of the one or more presentation objects in conjunction with playback of the video container.
14. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the one or more presentation objects comprise a plurality of presentation objects in respective different languages and user selection of at least one of an audio track in a given language and a set of subtitles in the given language automatically triggers selection for presentation in the overlay layer of at least a corresponding one of the presentation objects in the given language to the exclusion of one or more other ones of the presentation objects not in the given language.
15. A method comprising:
obtaining at least one video track comprising compressed video; and
combining the video track with one or more presentation objects into a video container;
wherein the one or more presentation objects are configured for presentation in an object layer arranged as an overlay relative to a video layer comprising decompressed video of the video track in conjunction with playback of the video container; and
wherein the method is implemented by at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory.
16. The method of claim 15 wherein the one or more presentation objects are editable by a user subsequent to the combination of those presentation objects with the video track into the video container.
17. The method of claim 15 wherein the video container further comprises at least one of:
one or more audio tracks associated with the video track; and
one or more sets of subtitles associated with the video track;
wherein the one or more presentation objects are separate from said at least one of the one or more audio tracks and the one or more subtitles.
18. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory processor-readable storage medium having stored therein program code of one or more software programs, wherein the program code when executed by at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory, causes said at least one processing device to perform the method of claim 15 .
19. An apparatus comprising:
a processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory;
the processing device being configured:
to obtain a video container which combines one or more presentation objects with at least one video track comprising compressed video; and
to present the one or more presentation objects in an object layer arranged as an overlay relative to a video layer comprising decompressed video of the video track in conjunction with playback of the video container.
20. The apparatus of claim 19 wherein the one or more presentation objects are editable by a user subsequent to the combination of those presentation objects with the video track into the video container.
