VIDEO BROWSING BY MITA RANA
Papers • Interactive Audio-Visual Video Browsing • Advanced User Interfaces for Dynamic Video Browsing • Interactive video Browsing on mobile Devices
Methodology • Position Based Browsing - Ability to quickly change between different levels of granularity when navigating a video file. - More suited if navigation on a finer level and exact positioning are required. - It Allows user to directly control the position which is currently displayed.
Methodology • Speed Based Browsing - The mode of choice for skimming larger parts of a file at a constant speed . - It enables users to modify replay speed at various levels. • A good design includes both position based browsing and speed based browsing
Problem • Scaling - The smallest possible move of the slider thumb can result in a large jump in the file. - The result is jerky visual feedback, considered irritating by the users. - In worst case, particular information is skipped completely.
Types of Interfaces • Zoom Slider -Solves the scaling Problem - Uses Position Based Browsing Method - It enables user to continuously zoom in and out of a slider’s scale while browsing a video file. - Advantage – Modification of the scale can be done continuously even while skimming through data.
- If users click anywhere on the player window and move to left or right ,they navigate through the file backward or forward along a virtual, horizontally mounted timeline. - If users move the mouse pointer vertically, moving the pointer upwards results in a finer scale, downwards movement cause a zoom-out. - Cont…
Types of Interfaces • Extension of Zoom slider Interface • Integration of speed-based browsing - Speed-based browsing is added to borders of the player window. - If a user reaches right border of the player window, Scrolling part is activated.
Cont>> • Using new zoom slider interface a user can skim the file at different replay speeds using the speed-bar located at the right border of the player window. • Speed can be modified by moving the pointer up or down . • Once a particular part of interest is found, the user can switch to position based navigation by simply moving the pointer to left.
Types of Interfaces • AV Zoom Slider - Both Speed based and Position based navigation method is used. - Speed based navigation method is natural way for providing interactive ,user controlled audio Browsing. - This Interface combines visual browsing with time synchronized audio skimming . - Using AV Zoom slider users will be able to find relevant information faster.
Conclusion - Speed/position based and audio/visual-based navigation complement each other. - User controlled techniques are described. - Future work addresses the system controlled approaches related to browsing behaviors performed with AV Zoom slider
Introduction • In this paper different user interfaces are described which solves the scaling problem in the context of video recordings are presented. • The goal is to present a slider like interface whose overall behavior is independent of particular document’s length and enables user to browse the video file at a very fine granularity as wells at a coarse level.
Types of Interfaces • NL Slider -It solves the scaling problem by using non linear slider scale. - Advantage is whole scale always stays within the application window and does not expand across the window’s border. - It enables user to navigate through random parts of the file at a fine or coarse level.
Types of Interfaces • Elastic Skimming Slider - It solves the scaling problem by enabling a user to manipulate the scrolling speed. - It is based loosely on the concept of elastic interfaces. - If the tension on the rubber-band increases the scrolling speed becomes faster. - If the tension get looser, scrolling speed decreases.
Conclusion • All interfaces described have been evaluated and their feasibility and usefulness was proven in a number of usability studies. • Which interface to pick for integration in an actual system strongly depends on the corresponding application, the documents and task to be performed by the users.
Introduction • A new interface is proposed for the pen based navigation of videos on PDAs and multimedia cell phones • Mobile Zoom slider- enables users to skim a video along the time line on different granularity levels. • It allows for continuous manipulation of replay speed for browsing purposes.
Computers Vs Mobile devices • Performance-Low battery life, design and size of the devices. • Input devices- much fewer buttons laid in special way. • Screen size- Mobile and handheld devices have natural limit for screen size.
Mobile Zoom Slider Interface • Position Based Navigation - The idea of this Zoom slider is to provide scrolling functionality to the user by just clicking on the screen. - If a user moves the pen horizontally at the bottom of the screen, the same scale is used as in the timeline of the original slider. - If one clicks at the upper part of the display, the finest possible scale is used, that is one pixel on the screen corresponds to one frame in the video.
Cont>> • Advantages - Interactions starts easily by clicking anywhere on the screen . - There is no need to explicitly set the scale for fine and coarse scrolling because the second dimension is used to manipulate this parameter.
Mobile Zoom Slider Interface • Speed Based Navigation - A “Speed Border” is introduced to this Zoom slider. - If the user reaches the right border of the window, speed based navigation in the file is invoked.
Cont>> • Implementation of the mobile zoom slider differs significantly from the desktop PC because of several performance issues. • The implementation of position based navigation worked well and offers smooth visual feedback during scrolling even at coarser granularity level. • The implementation of speed based navigation have limitations for higher replay speed .
Mobile Zoom slider offers much more functionality than traditional mobile video interfaces. It enables users to perform search and browsing tasks. Evaluation
Conclusion • A new interface for video browsing on pen-based handheld was presented. • It provides a large range of functionalities. • Further direction for future work include integration of audio feedback during speed based browsing for replay speeds in hand held devices.
