US Patent:
20100223649, Sep 2, 2010
Filed:
Mar 2, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/396389
Inventors:
Jason Robert Suitts - San Francisco CA, US
Max Muller - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
H04N 7/173
US Classification:
725105
Abstract:
Methods and systems for automating assessment of defects in digital videos are disclosed. Digital video content submitted to a digital video distribution system is encoded (e.g., transcoded) for distribution in a compact format. Portions of the encoded digital video content, referred to as video segments, that have perceived defects (e.g., transcoding artifacts) can be identified. An electronic record of the perceived defects for each of the identified segments can be created and used to automatically create a condensed defect review video that facilitates convenient and efficient assessment of the perceived defects by others. In one embodiment, the defect review video can provide for direct “side-by-side” comparison of displayed segments of the compact format and corresponding segments of the originally submitted format. Direct comparison of appearance of the perceived defects using the condensed defect review video provides for efficient assessment and disposition of perceived defects.

US Patent:
20110060776, Mar 10, 2011
Filed:
Sep 8, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/555624
Inventors:
Jason Robert Suitts - San Francisco CA, US
David Makower - Milpitas CA, US
Ricardo D. Cortes - Los Gatos CA, US
Max Muller - San Jose CA, US
Juan Carlos Jimenez - Campbell CA, US
Jeremy Brown - San Francisco CA, US

International Classification:
G06F 15/16
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707827, 709203, 707E1701
Abstract:
A system and method for submission of digital assets to a digital asset submission system are disclosed. The digital asset submission system can manage submissions of digital assets to a network-based distribution system. Submission of digital assets to the digital asset submission system can be performed over a network in a controlled manner such that the digital assets can be validated prior to transmission of the digital assets to the digital asset submission system. Advantageously, digital assets to be submitted for distribution can be substantially validated before the digital assets are transmitted to the digital asset submission system.

US Patent:
20150262108, Sep 17, 2015
Filed:
Mar 20, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/663818
Inventors:
- Cupertino CA, US
Daniel D. Erlewine - Santa Cruz CA, US
Dita R. Malaer - Mountain View CA, US
Eric C. Finke - Scotts Valley CA, US
Jason R. Suitts - San Francisco CA, US

Max M. Muller - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
G06Q 10/06
G06Q 50/18
H04L 29/08
Abstract:
Methods and systems for managing assessment of media content electronically submitted to a network-based media distribution system. A submitter can prepare a media package that is associated with a particular media asset (e.g. media title), and then electronically submit the media package to the media distribution system. The media distribution system can then process the media package to produce various components that are used by the media distribution system to electronically distribute media content of the media asset. According to one aspect, the media distribution system can manage a review process on the various components so that the components can be individually approved or rejected. According to another aspect, embodiments pertain to a reviewer's workspace that can assist a user in reviewing the submitted media content. According to still another aspect, embodiments can utilize a plurality of reviewers to review various media assets that have been submitted.
