Systems and methods for charting videos and/or attributes of videos associated with a spreadsheet are provided. For instance, when a video is associated with a spreadsheet, the video may be treated as a new type of data within the spreadsheet.

In aspects, the videos themselves, as well as video data (e.g., raw pixel data for each video frame, modulated data representing soundwaves of an audio file, etc.), video attributes (e.g., frame rate, aspect ratio, duration, resolution, bits per frame, video size, synchronization data, etc.), frame attributes (e.g., aspect ratio, color space, bitrate, etc.), audio attributes (e.g., pitch, volume, speed, etc.), and/or spreadsheet data (e.g., values in cells, user comments, etc.) may be incorporated into a chart using a spreadsheet charting function, either automatically or by user selection.
