notes
ok, so. the whiteboards notes dont translate so well with a still frame from an isight, but i didnt want to lose the drawings. let me transcribe the notes:
[ images need to be named by timecode because there is no other way to sync them back to the video otherwise. ]
[ click an image, get the filename and pass it as a querystring to iframe movie screen. movie screen reads querystring and starts movie from that point. ]
[ if people can tag/comment their favorite frames, thumbnails should reflect these choices. ]
[ queue system for browsing? takes the chapter idea a bit further...which is both good and bad. it allows for scanning while watching, without worrying that you are missing, but finding the 'end point' of a chapter, presenting it in such a...way might be too...structured. or something. ]
[ look at different movie sizes and formats for a fun experiment. ]
finally, a very basic demo of the 'starttime' flag. just threw this up to test with, figured i might as well share the link. its not exciting, simply taking a qt movie and starting it 2 minutes in instead of at the beginning.
