Procedure batch updating proxy start times for AAPB assets

[ekemeyer]

Details

Background

If an AAPB item has something like this in its PBCore
33.5
Then the existing AAPB player knows to jump to 33.5 sec when it starts playing the item.

With SWT, we can calculate that start time value for large sets of items.

Request

We need a way to

• take a list of GUIDs with associated start times (expressed in seconds) -- maybe in a CSV file?
• Add the annotation with annotationType="Proxy Start Time" to the asset in AMS2
• Push that asset back to the AAPB

Extra info

For experimentation purposes, the URL supplied here points to a CSV with about 1000 guids and proxy start times for items in the Bill Moyers SC.
