Abstract

Included are embodiments of a method for collaborative editing. At least one embodiment includes receiving an indication to include at least one media effect with at least one media segment and sending at least one media attribute associated with the at least one media segment to a remote server. Some embodiments include receiving data related to at least one determined media effect, the at least one determined media effect being determined from the at least one media attribute.

Claims

1. A system for collaborative editing, comprising:

a first receiving component configured to receive an indication to include at least one media effect with at least one media segment;

a first sending component configured to send at least one media attribute associated with the at least one media segment to a remote server;

a second receiving component configured to receive data related to the at least one determined media effect, the at least one determined media effect being determined from the at least one media attribute;

a determining component configured to determine whether to apply the at least one received media attribute;

a second sending component configured to, in response to determining not to apply the at least one received media attribute, send a request for at least one different media effect; and

a third receiving component configured to receive the at least one different media effect.

6. The system of claim 1, further comprising a second applying component configured to apply the at least one different media effect.

7. A method for collaborative editing, comprising:

receiving an indication to include at least one media effect with at least one media segment;

sending at least one media attribute associated with the at least one media segment to a remote server; and

receiving data related to at least one determined media effect, the at least one determined media effect being determined from the at least one media attribute.

2. The system of claim 7, further comprising, a first applying component configured to, in response to determining to apply the at least one received media attribute, apply the received at least one determined media effect to the at least one media segment.

3. The system of claim 7, further comprising an analyzing component configured to analyze the at least one media segment to determine the at least one media attribute.

4. The system of claim 7, wherein the a least one media segment includes at least one of the following:

audio, image, and video.

5. The system of claim 7, further wherein the at least one media attribute is sent to a remote server.

8. The method of claim 7, further comprising, applying the received at least one determined media effect to the at least one media segment.

9. The method of claim 7, further comprising analyzing the at least one media segment to determine the at least one media attribute.

10. The method of claim 7, wherein the a least one media segment includes at least one of the following:

audio, image, and video.

11. The method of claim 7, further wherein the at least one media attribute is sent to a remote server.

12. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

determining not to apply the at least one received media attribute;

sending a request for at least one different media effect; and

receiving the at least one different media effect.

13. The method of claim 12, further comprising applying the at least one different media effect.

14. A computer readable storage medium for collaborative editing, comprising:

first receiving logic configured to receive an indication to include at least one media effect with at least one media segment;

first sending logic configured to send at least one media attribute associated with the at least one media segment to a remote server; and

second receiving logic configured to receive data related to at least one determined media effect, the at least one determined media effect being determined from the at least one media attribute.

15. The computer readable storage medium of claim 14, further comprising first applying logic configured to apply the received at least one determined media effect to the at least one media segment.

16. The computer readable storage medium of claim 14, further comprising analyzing logic configured to analyze the at least one media segment to determine the at least one media attribute.

17. The computer readable storage medium of claim 14, wherein the a least one media segment includes at least one of the following:

audio, image, and video.

18. The computer readable storage medium of claim 14, further wherein the at least one media attribute is sent to a remote server.

19. The computer readable storage medium of claim 14, further comprising:

determining logic configured to determine not to apply the at least one received media attribute;

second sending logic configured to send a request for at least one different media effect; and

third receiving logic configured to receive the at least one different media effect.

20. The computer readable storage medium of claim 19, further comprising applying logic configured to apply the at least one different media effect.

21. A method for collaborative editing, comprising:

receiving an indication to include a first media effect with a first media segment;

sending a first media attribute associated with the first media segment to a remote server; and

receiving data related to a first media effect, the first media effect being determined from the first media attribute,

wherein the remote server is configured to receive the first media attribute associated with the first media segment for predicting a second media effect for a second media segment.

22. The method of claim 21, further comprising:

sending an indication to include a second media effect with the second media segment; and

receiving data related to the predicted second media effect.
