Abstract:
Implementations disclose a user interface that supports an access control mechanism for peer-to-peer sharing technology. An example method includes providing for display a user interface comprising a plurality of media items and a plurality of media availability indicators, wherein a portion of the user interface represents that an encrypted version of a media item of the plurality of media items and an encryption key for the encrypted version are being received over a peer-to-peer connection; updating a media availability indicator of the media availability indicators to represent that the encrypted version of the media item and the encryption key are saved; receiving an indication that the encrypted version of the media item is decrypted; and updating the media availability indicator to represent the media item is available to be experienced.
Abstract:
A solution is provided to generate video recommendations in a video sharing environment. A video recommendation system selects a video as a target video and extracts target keywords from the title of the identified target video or the title of a non-video trending news item. The system receives multiple candidate videos. For each candidate video, the system extracts keywords from the title of the candidate video and compares the extracted keywords with the target words. Based on the comparison, the system generates a similarity score for the candidate video. The system ranks the candidate videos based their associated similarity scores and selects a candidate video having the highest similarity score as the video recommendation for the target video.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for identifying and updating a group of media content items are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: receiving indications of filtering criteria; identifying a first collection of media content items, wherein the first collection of media content items includes media content items associated with a particular topic; identifying a first group of candidate media content items, wherein the first group of candidate media content items includes media content items not included in the first collection of media content items; creating a second collection of media content items by applying the stored filtering criteria to the first collection of media content items and the first group of candidate media content items; and causing a user interface that indicates the second collection of media content items and the identifier of the collection of media content items to be presented.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for searching for video content are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: receiving one or more characters entered into a first query field by a user; determining a predicted search query based on the one or more received characters; determining a plurality of suggested search queries based on the one or more received characters; causing the predicted search query to be presented in the first query field and at least a portion of the plurality of suggested search query to be presented in a second query field, wherein the predicted search query is combined with the one or more received characters in the first query field; searching a database of videos based on the predicted search query; causing a plurality of video content items from the database of videos responsive to the predicted search query to be presented; and causing, without user interaction, a first video content item from the plurality of video content items to be played back.
