To achieve your goal of watching a video while annotating text, you can use the Video tag to display the video and the TextArea tag to provide a space for text annotations. Here is a simple labeling configuration that allows you to watch a video and annotate text:

<View>
  <Video name="video" value="$video" />
  <TextArea name="text_annotation" toName="video" placeholder="Enter your text annotation here" />
</View>

Explanation:

1. Video Tag: This tag is used to display the video. The value attribute should be set to the URL of the video you want to display.
2. TextArea Tag: This tag provides a text area for annotators to enter their text annotations. The toName attribute should be set to the name of the Video tag to link the text area to the video.

Example JSON Task:

Here is an example of how your task data might look in JSON format:

{
  "data": {
    "video": "https://example.com/path/to/your/video.mp4"
  }
}

Steps to Implement:

1. Create a New Project: In Label Studio, create a new project.
2. Set Up Labeling Interface: Go to the project settings and set up the labeling interface with the provided configuration.
3. Import Tasks: Import your tasks with the video URLs in the JSON format as shown above.
4. Start Annotating: Open a task, watch the video, and enter your text annotations in the provided text area.

This setup allows you to watch the video and annotate text without any additional complexity.
