Media and annotation viewer: A wish list #636

Open juliamiller opened 7 years ago

juliamiller commented 7 years ago

Wish list:

  1. Is it possible to have more active interaction with the media files to be viewed together? Either on the Item page (with a tick box net to files to be opened together)? Or on the media viewer page. We have loads of multiple media files under one item (multiple cameras, audio recorders, mics used for a single session). Would be nice to choose.
  2. It would also be nice to be able to choose what tiers to see during playback. We could be presented with all the tiers provided by depositors (all researchers tend to have their own tier structures, names for tiers, etc.). This could be done on the viewer page with more tick boxes to show or hide tiers specific to that .eaf file.

Not sure how easy these are, but they would really work better than how things are now. Too many transcriptions running at once (despite toggle trans button), esp if there is a video file and an audio file both linked to eaf. (very common for linguists to bundle together in an item for archiving). And if we want to see the trans with the video, the page does not allow us to scroll the page down to keep the video in the screen, as the audio trans scrolling keeps pulling the page up to the audio that sits above the video.
