Abstract

A multimedia player is provided access to recorded multimedia data including data of a first media type, e.g., voice, and at least a second media type, e.g., text, exchanged between at least one user and at least one server. The recorded multimedia data of the first media type is synchronized with the recorded multimedia data of the second media type, e.g., by matching timing information, and the synchronized data is combined. The combined data is then rendered into an audio-video format compatible with the multimedia player. The rendered data may then be saved into a file accessible by the multimedia player. The rendered data may be sent to a multimedia player, or a hyperlink may be created for accessing the rendered data by the multimedia player. The recorded data may be annotated with multimedia data. The user may be notified that the multimedia data has been recorded.
