First Claim
Patent Images
1. For a video-editing application, a method for recapturing media items for a composite presentation, the method comprising:
- identifying a media item that was previously imported from a first storage to a media-editing application data storage as one of a missing, corrupted, and incomplete media item, wherein the identified media item is part of the composite presentation and associated with a particular duration of the composite presentation;
recapturing the media item from the first storage and storing the recaptured media item in a media file on the media-editing application data storage;
identifying a set of metadata associated with the particular duration of the composite presentation, the set of metadata comprising an associated set of recapture rules; and
storing the identified metadata set with the recaptured media item in the media file when the associated set of recapture rules specifies that the metadata set should be stored with the media item during a recapture operation.

Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for processing metadata associated with digital video in a multi-state video computer readable medium. The method specifies a set of rules for propagating the metadata between different states in the video computer readable medium. It then propagates the metadata between the states based on the specified set of rules.

14. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a computer program executable by at least one processing unit, the computer program comprising sets of instructions for:
-
identifying a media item that was previously imported from a first storage to a media-editing application as one of a missing, corrupted, and incomplete media item, the identified media item for use in a particular portion of a composite presentation created by the media-editing application; recapturing the media item from the first storage and storing the recaptured media item in a media file on a second storage local to the media-editing application; determining whether a particular metadata set associated with the recaptured media item has an associated set of recapture rules for processing the particular metadata set during the recapturing operation; when the particular metadata set has an associated set of recapture rules, determining whether to store the particular metadata set in the media file according to the associated set of recapture rules; and when the particular metadata set does not have an associated set of recapture rules, storing the particular metadata set in the media file with the recaptured media item. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a computer program executable by at least one processing unit, the computer program comprising sets of instructions for:
-
identifying a media item that was previously imported for a composite media presentation as one of a missing, corrupted, and incomplete media item; recapturing the media item for use in a particular portion of the composite media presentation, the particular portion having an associated set of metadata that comprises a set of recapture rules; identifying, based on the set of recapture rules for the set of metadata, a subset of the associated set of metadata to store with the recaptured media item; and storing the identified subset of the metadata set with the recaptured media item. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
