A distributed system for editing and browsing compressed video over the network
Horace J. Meng, Di Zhong, Shih‐Fu Chang · 2002
We present a new framework for distributed video editing and browsing over the network. This framework uses a distributed client-server model including a server engine for content analysis/editing, and clients for interactive controls of video browsing/editing. It utilizes several unique features, including compressed-domain video manipulation, multi-resolution video access, content based video browsing/retrieval, and a distributed network architecture. We have developed a complete functional prototype, CVEPS, which includes a compressed domain video analysis and editing engine, and a JAVA based user interface. It has been incorporated into a World Wide Web application, WebClip, for editing compressed video over the Web.
