Metadata role-based view generation in multimedia editing systems and methods therefor
First Claim
1. A method for using metadata of multimedia content (MMC) in a network-based editing system, the system comprising at least one remote media asset node (MAN) having a server computer and a global media hub (GMH) having a GMH server computer, the at least one remote MAN in electronic communication over a network with the global media hub (GMH), the at least one remote MAN located at or proximal to at least one client of the system, the at least one client having a plurality of users, the method comprising:
- transforming the metadata with the GMH for a given one of the MMC into a multiplicity of metadata subsets, including at least a primary metadata subset, and a second metadata subset, wherein the primary metadata subset and the second metadata subset are different;
the at least one client determining which users of the plurality of users can use the system;
the at least one client determining different user roles for the users which have been determined to use the system;
storing the different user roles at the GMH;
coupling, at the GMH, the primary metadata subset to a first one of the different user roles and coupling the second metadata subset to a second one of the different user roles;
receiving a request into the GMH via the network from a first one of the users of the at least one client who can use the system, the first user having the first or the second one of the different user roles determined by the at least one client;
transforming and grouping with the GMH the metadata into a unique role-based view of the metadata that corresponds to the first user'"'"'s role at the at least one client;
controlling with the GMH all editing processes performed at the at least one remote MAN on the MMC;
storing edited MMC at the at least one remote MAN; and
storing metadata associated with the MMC edited at the at least one remote MAN at the GMH.

Abstract
Systems and methods for automatic transformation the overall metadata associated with the multimedia content (MMC) at the global media hub (GMH) into unique role-and-client-based views via the network for review through the media access node (MAN) associated with the client, wherein those views of the metadata, general or temporal or subset, are unique and specific to each user in the context of that user'"'"'s role within the client.

1. A method for using metadata of multimedia content (MMC) in a network-based editing system, the system comprising at least one remote media asset node (MAN) having a server computer and a global media hub (GMH) having a GMH server computer, the at least one remote MAN in electronic communication over a network with the global media hub (GMH), the at least one remote MAN located at or proximal to at least one client of the system, the at least one client having a plurality of users, the method comprising:
-
transforming the metadata with the GMH for a given one of the MMC into a multiplicity of metadata subsets, including at least a primary metadata subset, and a second metadata subset, wherein the primary metadata subset and the second metadata subset are different; the at least one client determining which users of the plurality of users can use the system; the at least one client determining different user roles for the users which have been determined to use the system; storing the different user roles at the GMH; coupling, at the GMH, the primary metadata subset to a first one of the different user roles and coupling the second metadata subset to a second one of the different user roles; receiving a request into the GMH via the network from a first one of the users of the at least one client who can use the system, the first user having the first or the second one of the different user roles determined by the at least one client; transforming and grouping with the GMH the metadata into a unique role-based view of the metadata that corresponds to the first user'"'"'s role at the at least one client; controlling with the GMH all editing processes performed at the at least one remote MAN on the MMC; storing edited MMC at the at least one remote MAN; and storing metadata associated with the MMC edited at the at least one remote MAN at the GMH. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A method for editing multimedia content (MMC) and providing role-based metadata views associated with the MMC, the method comprising:
-
providing a system including at least one remote media asset node (MAN) including a MAN server computer for editing MMC stored at the at least one remote MAN, the at least one remote MAN in electronic communication over a network with a global media hub (GMH) including a GMH server computer, the at least one remote MAN located at or proximal to at least one client of the system, the at least one client having a plurality of users; acting on the MMC with a user interface at the at least one remote MAN as directed from the GMH server computer, the user interface being on a display coupled to the at least one remote MAN; editing a copy of the MMC stored at the at least one remote MAN; controlling with the GMH the editing performed at the at least one remote MAN; generating edited-MMC metadata associated with and corresponding to the edited MMC; storing the edited-MMC at the at least one remote MAN; storing the edited-MMC metadata at the GMH; the at least one client determining which users of the plurality of users can use the system; the at least one client determining different user roles for the users which have been determined to use the system; storing the different user roles at the GMH; receiving a request via the client UI by a first one of the users of the at least one client who can use the system, the first user having a first one of the different user roles determined by the at least one client to review metadata for the MMC; verifying with the GMH authorization of the first user based on the first user'"'"'s role at the at least one client to review the metadata for the MMC; transforming with the GMH the metadata for generating a primary metadata view associated with the MMC based on the first user'"'"'s role at the at least one client, wherein the primary metadata view is unique to the first user'"'"'s role at the at least one client. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)

15. A system for editing multimedia content (MMC) and providing unique role-based views of metadata associated with the content, the system comprising:
-
a global media hub (GMH) including a GMH server computer; at least one remote MAN including a MAN server computer for editing the MMC, the at least one remote MAN in electronic communication over a network with the GMH, the at least one remote MAN located at or proximal to at least one client of the system, the at least one client having a plurality of users; and a display coupled to the at least one remote MAN, the display having a user interface (UI), the UI being operable for editing the MMC stored at the at least one remote MAN server computer; wherein the at least one client determines which users of the plurality of users can use the system; wherein the at least one client determines different user roles for the users which have been determined to use the system; wherein the GMH controls the editing of the MMC at the at least one remote MAN; wherein the edited MMC is stored at the at least one remote MAN; wherein metadata associated with the MMC edited at the at least one remote MAN is stored at the GMH; and wherein the GMH generates a multiplicity of metadata subsets for presentation of unique metadata views that correspond to the different user roles of users of the at least one client who can use the system, the different user roles being stored at the GMH. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
