Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating an advertisement for output based on an item on a wish list. A request to obtain media content is received at a computing device, and a user profiled associated with the media content is identified. A wish list associated with the user profile is accessed, and an item on the wish list is identified. A first advertisement is identified, wherein the first advertisement is based on the identified item. A representation of the first advertisement and the media content are received at the computing device. A representation of the first advertisement and the media content are generated for output at the computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for enhancing media or information consumption. An example method includes identifying a movement of a first user, identifying an object referenced by the movement of the first user external to the first user, and in response to determining that the object is at least partially obstructed from a field of view of a second user, generating, for display on a display that is within the field of view of the second user, a view of the object.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing an enhanced viewing experience for one or more users of an interactive media program. One example method includes receiving, at a computing device, the interactive media program, wherein the interactive media program comprises a plurality of alternative segments followed by a common segment. A selection of a first alternative segment is received and is generated for output. A summary of at least one segment from the plurality of alternative segments is generated, and the summary is generated for output. The common segment of the interactive media program is generated for output.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for including supplemental content with segments based on the complexity of the segment. This may be accomplished by a system receiving complexity information related to a media asset and user information related to a viewer to determine if one or more segments of the media asset is complex for the user. If the system receives a trick play command, from the user, during a segment categorized as complex, the system can use the complexity information and user information to generate supplemental content, facilitating better user understanding of the complex segment.

Abstract: Methods and systems generate improved viewership of and interest in content including live events, sporting events, and reality shows utilizing improved content delivery (including streaming content delivery, primary content delivery, and secondary content delivery), analysis of media content items, user interaction, automatic control without user interaction, display configurations, user interfaces, selectable options, live and non-live content, temporal considerations, determinations, predictions, likelihoods, measurements of user interestedness, measurements of relatedness, content availability, user-generated content, identification and delivery of content of particular interest to a user, metadata analysis, playlist generation, and concurrent live content availability. Based on these improvements, dynamic streaming content feeds are generated, which are specifically adapted to the determined interests of a user or a clustered group of users in order to increase viewership of and interest in content. Related apparatuses, devices, techniques, and articles are also described.
