Chronological event information for multimedia content

Abstract

Disclosed is a technique for generating chronological event information. The technique involves receiving event data comprising a plurality of events, where each event is associated with a different position in a video stream. The technique further involves determining that a current playhead position in the video stream corresponds to a first position associated with a first event, and, in response, causing the first event to be displayed in an event list as a current event, causing a second event to be displayed in the event list as a previous event, where the second event is associated with a second position in the video stream that is before the first position, and causing a third event to be displayed in the event list as a next event, where the third event is associated with a third position in the video stream that is after the first position.
