FrameTrail Description
FrameTrail is an open-source software that allows you to view, manage, and edit interactive video right from your web browser. FrameTrail allows you to link filmic content, add multimedia documents (e.g. You can add text overlays, images, or interactive maps to specific points. As a basis for synchronization, you can use any video file or an empty video of a specified length. You can place documents on top of the video (e.g. Text, images, web pages, interactive maps, and other documents can be placed on top of the video. You can decide when and how they should appear. You can create non-linear networks of video fragments called Hypervideos that can be navigated freely by the user. You can add additional materials at specific points in time and compare them with annotation timelines from other users. We chose to use a simple technology and self-contained formats to make FrameTrail easy to install, modify, and extend. Everything is file-based (no database).
