Digital media and multimedia scheduling and delivery platform
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method of uploading media and multimedia files of varying playback duration, whereby said respective playback durations are either user defined or file property attributed, intended for scheduling of their playback on a digital display available in client network, comprising:
- a process that allows a computing device of a user to upload an image media file or a selection of image files;
stores said image file or files in a data repository;
receives user input or inputs for a desired playback duration of said image file or files;
constrains said user input or inputs, per image media file, to be between one second and a maximum duration equal to a predefined time period;
encodes, by a computer processor, said image file or files into a benchmark multimedia file type with the attributed playback duration or durations user input previously set;
stores the new multimedia file or files in a data repository;
and a process that allows a computing device of a user to upload a media and/or a multimedia file or a selection of media and/or multimedia files;
determines if said media and/or multimedia playback duration is longer than one second and does not have a duration longer than a maximum duration equal to a predefined time period;
accepts the media and/or multimedia file or files that meet previously stated duration requirements;
stores said accepted media and/or multimedia file or files in a data repository;
encodes said accepted media and/or multimedia file or files into a benchmark multimedia file type;
and stores the new multimedia file or files in a data repository.
