Editing new TimelineLabels for videos

Open idobenamram opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Hi, we are really excited to use the new TimelineLabels labels for our data collection projects, but currently the feature doesn't allow for editing. This causes 2 problems:

  1. it requires deleting and redoing an annotation if we missed something.
  2. if the event is really long, and is longer then the length of the context which follows the video, you stop updating the video frames which makes it hard to know whats going on.

Describe the solution you'd like We would like the ability to click on the beginning or end of an annotation and continue dragging to make the change. We would also like it so that the video context will follow us if we want to continue to drag the annotation.

thanks so much for the great work!

Here is a snapshot of the "video context" I mentioned. Screenshot 2024-09-25 at 17 52 57

I tried using sync=True on the Video tag in the hope that this would enable contextual syncing between the video and the annotation. It does not work and causes the task to simply linger on the loading bar. Happy to provide any specific logs to help solve the problem.

These two issues are still not yet resolved. However, we are almost done with (1) - timeline editing. It should be released very soon (https://github.com/HumanSignal/label-studio/pull/6577), but it wasn't included to LS 1.14.

With our latest release, we added drag and drop editing for TimeLineLabels: https://github.com/HumanSignal/label-studio/releases/tag/1.18.0

And earlier we added the ability to edit spans: https://github.com/HumanSignal/label-studio/releases/tag/1.15.0

Closing this issue - thank you for contributing!
