User actions in a Mediateca
Thinking in Mediateca as the whole of multimedia files the user has, I tried to classify all the actions that the user may want to do with his/her files. Here you have my sorting, done in two different ways.
Sorted by the element pipe
- Incoming elements
- Creating a brand new one
- Digitalizing some input
- Downloading from internet
- Provided by a hotplugged portable device: [ handling hotplugged devices – project Utopia ]
- CD?
- MP3 player
- Videocamera
- Photocamera
- Manipulating elements
- Viewing, listening or both
- Navigating over all of them
- Searching for any element (conventional search or Storage-like search)
- Organizing your mediateca (mainly editing metainformation: tags and RDF info)
- Transforming and editing
- Outgoing elements
- Burning a CD/DVD (data, music or movie)
- Printing (if possible) in paper
- Broadcast (if possible) over the internet
- Send to somebody
