1 A method for a multimedia seek sequence using a synchronization index and a mobile computing
device comprising the steps:
a
providing, to a mobile computing device, information for displaying on the mobile computing device text
from a synchronization index, wherein said synchronization index comprises an electronic transcript that
indicates text corresponding to audio from the multimedia and respective times within multimedia
corresponding to when a word or range of words is audible in the multimedia;
b wherein said mobile computing device comprises a viewing screen and a touch-sensitive input interface;
c displaying, after said providing step, at least a portion of said text from a synchronization index on said viewing
screen, wherein said text is displayed other than as a web page;
d
receiving, from the mobile computing device, information indicating a user’s selected mobile computing device
touch-sensitive input interface gesture performed on a portion of said viewing screen corresponding to a
displayed word, or a range of words, from said synchronization index, wherein said gesture is recognized by
said touch-sensitive input interface on the mobile computing device;
e
performing a timecode lookup, using the synchronization index, and in response to the gesture performed to
select a word or range of words, said timecode lookup functioning to associate a time, t1, within multimedia to
the selected word or range of words; and
f
delivering multimedia beginning at time t1, or providing instructions for the delivery of multimedia beginning at
time t1, to a receiving device to play said multimedia, wherein said multimedia corresponds to the word or
range of words selected by the gesture.
