Abstract
Systems and methods of presenting media objects are described. In one aspect, a group of media objects is selected from the collection based upon media object relevance to one or more data structures of a selected media file of indexed, temporally-ordered data structures. The selected media file and the media objects of the selected group are presented contemporaneously. In another aspect, media objects in the collection are grouped into multiple clusters based upon one or more media object relevance criteria. The media object clusters are arranged into a hierarchy of two or more levels. A selected media object cluster is presented contemporaneously. Systems for implementing these media object presentation methods also are described.
