Feedback and suggestions wanted

[oaubert]

Hello

The Advene team ( http://www.advene.org/ , see below) is planning a major overhaul of the application, based on a new data model improving multiple media handling, tag handling and elements grouping. We would like to take this opportunity to get some feedback and suggestions about the features or interesting ideas that could be integrated in the new version. We are thus soliciting your input, as Advene users or could/would-be users.

Our main redesign goals currently feature:
- handling of multiple videos
- ability to search in a corpus of multiple video annotations
- improvements in rendering means

If you have a specific need or feature request, please share it with us via email at advene@liris.cnrs.fr , or on our web forum http://www.advene.org/forum/

-- Some information about Advene

Advene (Annotate Digital Video, Exchange on the NEt) is an ongoing project in the LIRIS laboratory (UMR 5205 CNRS) at University Claude Bernard Lyon 1. The cross-platform Advene application allows users to easily create comments and analyses of video comments, through the definition of time-aligned annotations and their mobilisation into automatically-generated or user-written comment views (HTML documents). Annotations can also be used to modify the rendition of the audiovisual document, thus providing virtual montage, captioning, navigation... capabilities. Users can exchange their comments/analyses in the form of Advene packages, independently from the video itself.
