First Claim
1. At least one computer-readable medium encoded with instructions which, when executed by a processor, performs a method including:
- rendering video content on a display device;
receiving a segment of speech from a user such that the speech segment annotates a portion of the video content currently being rendered;
converting the speech segment to a text-segment;
associating the text-segment with the portion of the video content; and
storing in a selectively retrievable manner the text-segment so that it is associated with the rendered portion of the video content.

Abstract
A method and apparatus is provided for annotating video content with metadata generated using speech recognition technology. The method begins by rendering video content on a display device. A segment of speech is received from a user such that the speech segment annotates a portion of the video content currently being rendered. The speech segment is converted to a text-segment and the text-segment is associated with the rendered portion of the video content.
