SYSTEMS FOR THE INTEGRATED DESIGN, OPERATION AND MODIFICATION OF DATABASES AND ASSOCIATED WEB APPLICATIONS

摘要

The described embodiment of the system includes business methods and software and hardware that acquires up to multi-gigabyte digital video files from digital cameras and other storage media, encodes the video files into formats in general use for playback on the Internet, acquires and manages all types of non-video files and delivers digital video and non-video files to remote storage for display using encryption algorithms and file compression algorithms. The system consists of digital cameras, personal computers, software and remote servers. The video-file-management software manages the process of acquiring video files from removable storage and all types of files from personal computers, manages the process of encoding movie files, annotating and editing movie files, annotating non-movie files, and compressing, encrypting and uploading such files to remote storage. The video-file-management software divides long movie files into two-minute segments to make editing, recombining and uploading simpler and more reliable.
