Abstract:
System and methods are provided for presenting a video of an item via a network page of an electronic marketplace provider. The video may depict the item in motion. The video frames may be included as part of an image file (e.g., a sprite sheet) such that presentation of the video at a user interface requires only a single download of the image file. A navigational interface may be provided to manipulate the playback of the video. Additional images may be provided with the video that individually depict stationary views of the item. The user may navigate between the navigational interface of the video and a number of selection elements corresponding to the additional images. Thus, efficiency of providing a video of an item is improved as is the ease of navigating between videos and images within an item detail page.
