Hi Toni,
VARS is a surprisingly well-developed software so thank you for that!
Thanks. I hope you find it useful.
I just can't find something that I would assume is already
implemented. The possibility to click an observation from the list
(say produced by a query) and jump to the specific point of that video
file. I can only see a jump button in the UI (binoculars) but you need
to manually input the timecode where you want to go instead of just
clicking from the list of observations.
Sorry to say that that feature is not implemented. The issue we ran into was that, at MBARI, we use a timecode track to index into the file. The alternative to that is just to use the Runtime of the file. It's easy to jump to a point in the file based on runtime, but I was never able to figure out to do it using a timecode. I'm doing some work on VARS in a few weeks; I can look into adding the feature.
In addition something that could be useful is to have endpoints of
annotations so you could play all the "ocean-shrimps" for example one
after the other (like a playlist generated by the query).
Some bug is also bugging me when operating the knowledgebase.bat. It
does not allow to delete concept "physical object" and produces the
following error:
Hmmm, I'd have to look into that. Deleting the physical object delete's nearly all the Knowledebase tree: Is that really what you want to do? Also, that may be a bug specific to Apache Derby with bigger branches. You can test this by deleting a smaller branch of the tree. Anyway I'll add it to my list to look into.
