A method of content replacement with onscreen displays. The method can further include sending an overlay request to provide overlay content and an overlay format. The method can include receiving the overlay content and the overlay format selected in view of overlay parameters. The method can include superimposing the overlay content over the media content using the overlay format. The method can include detecting a presence of an onscreen display. The method can include determining a location of a portion of the onscreen display that extends underneath the overlay content. The method can include defining a window in the overlay content that corresponds to at least the location of the portion of the onscreen display. The method can include setting a transparency level of the overlay content in the window to permit the portion of the onscreen display to be at least partially visible through the overlay content.

Content replacement with onscreen displays

A method, graphical interface and computer-readable medium for generating a preview of a reformatted preview segment of a selected input file. A preview pane is displayed in a single window and includes preview controls including a file timeline indicator configured to graphically depict a length of a selected input file. Preview in and out markers are displayed and configured to define a preview segment of the selected input file. The preview segment is reformatted into a reformatted preview segment according to the reformatting process associated with the selected input file. The reformatted preview segment is displayed in the preview pane.

Method, graphical interface and computer-readable medium for generating a preview of a reformatted preview segment

A method, graphical interface and computer-readable medium for reformatting data including selecting at least one input file graphical element from a first pane corresponding to at least one input file to reformat. A reformatting batch job is created and is depicted in a second pane as a reformatting batch job graphical element when the at least one input file graphical element is selected in the first pane. At least one reformatting process is associated to the at least one input file in the reformatting batch job from a third pane. The reformatting batch job is executed with the at least one reformatting process being performed on the at least one input file.

Method, graphical interface and computer-readable medium for reformatting data

A method, graphical interface and computer-readable medium for forming a batch job includes selecting at least one input file to reformat in the batch job. A batch job tree is formed for constructing a batch job with each of the input files being associated to a corresponding branch of the batch job tree. At least one reformatting process is associated with each of the input files on each branch of the batch job tree. A graphical interface for configuring a batch job includes a first interface pane for displaying and enabling selection of at least one input file, a second interface pane configured for interactively configuring a batch job tree representative of the batch job, and a third interface pane for associating at least one reformatting process to each input file.
