First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer controlled method comprising:
- presenting, on a local device, an experiential data stream from a first playback position in a time dimension of said first experiential data stream, wherein a later portion of said experiential data stream beyond said first playback position is available to said local device;
receiving a transitory audio while said experiential data stream is being presented; and
storing said transitory audio as a commentary audio clip having an audio trigger position.
