Abstract
In one embodiment, a computer server machine generates a time map associated with the video stream. The video stream comprises one or more time slices. The computer server machine identifies a non-relevant time frame. The computer machine receives a comment and a localized comment time stamp, and associates the comment with one or more time slices. One or more client devices communicates a request for one or more time slices to the computer server machine, and the computer server machine determines whether the localized comment time stamp is within the requested one or more time slices. When the localized comment time stamp is within the requested one or more time slices, computer server machine transforms the localized time stamp to a synchronized comment time stamp. Computer server machine sends information regarding the synchronized comment time stamp to the one or more client devices.
