Method And System For Providing A Media Transition Having A Temporal Link To Presentable Media Available From A Remote Content Provider
First Claim
1. A method for providing a media transition having a temporal link to presentable media available from a remote content provider, the method comprising:
- receiving user input for presenting a media grouping comprising a plurality of media objects including stored media files and a media transition, wherein presenting the media grouping includes presenting the stored media files and the media transition in an interleaved manner;
receiving an indication that presentable media associated with the media transition is available from a remote content provider;
in response to receiving the indication, providing in the media transition a temporal link to the presentable media available from the remote content provider; and
enabling the temporal link for activation via a user interface only while the media transition is presented, wherein the associated presentable media is presented when the temporal link is activated.

Abstract
Methods and systems are described for providing a media transition having a temporal link to presentable media available from a remote content provider. One method includes receiving user input for presenting a media grouping comprising a plurality of media objects including stored media files and a media transition. When the media grouping is presented, the stored media files and the media transition are presented in an interleaved manner. The method further includes receiving an indication that presentable media associated with the media transition is available from a remote content provider, and in response to receiving such an indication, providing in the media transition a temporal link to the presentable media available from the remote content provider. The temporal link is enabled for activation via a user interface only while the media transition is presented so that the associated presentable media is presented when the temporal link is activated.
