Method and apparatus for timed tagging of media content
First Claim
1. A computerized method of timed tagging of media content, comprising:
- obtaining at least one keyword tag associated with discrete media content;
generating a timed segment index of discrete media content, the timed segment index identifying content segments of the discrete media content and corresponding timing boundaries of the content segments;
searching the timed segment index for a match to the at least one keyword tag, the match corresponding to at least one of the content segments identified in the segment index; and
generating a timed tag index that includes the at least one keyword tag and the timing boundaries corresponding to the least one content segment of the discrete media content containing the match.
