Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting user-selectable options for parental control in response to detecting a triggering action by a user are disclosed. A system generates for output a first content item on a device. The system identifies a first user and a second user in proximity to the device and determines that a first gesture is performed by the first user wherein the first gesture is covering the eyes of the second user. In response to determining that the first gesture is performed, the system presents a selectable option for a user input such as (a) skipping a portion of the first content item; (b) lowering the volume; (c) removing the video of the first content item; or (d) presenting a second content item instead of presenting the first content item. In response to receiving a user input selecting the selectable option, the system performs an action corresponding to the selectable option.

Abstract: Systems and methods for summarizing captions, configuring playback speed, and rewriting the caption file for a media asset are disclosed. The system determines whether to display the original captions or a summarized version of the captions, which are based on user's language proficiency level, reading pace, and historical data, and can be generated either on-demand or automatically when rewinds and pauses are detected. The caption file which includes the original captions can be rewritten. The system determines whether to stream a caption or a rewritten file to a media device based on user or system selections. In the absence of a caption file, or when the caption file cannot be summarized, the playback speed of the media asset is slowed down to provide additional reading time to the user.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to determining the reliability of online content items using a non-linear data structure. More particularly, the present invention provides an effective tool for slowing down the spread of false or unreliable content online using a non-linear data structure. The present disclosure provides an algorithm that leverages content items available within the wider ecosystem associated with a root note to determine a content item's level of accuracy or reliability based on what is currently known about a topic or event associated with the content item.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically generating preliminary hashtag(s) for a video asset uploaded to an online platform and sampling them with related videos on the online platform are disclosed. Upon the upload of the video asset, the system automatically analyzes the metadata associated with the video asset to generate preliminary hashtags. The preliminary hashtags are used to find and sample related videos that include one or more hashtags that are related to the preliminary hashtag. Based on the sampling analysis, a determination is made whether to retain or delete the preliminary hashtag and whether to adopt the one or more hashtags from the related videos. The video asset may be tagged with the preliminary hashtag and/or the adopted hashtag if the hashtag is approved by the user and complies with the platform policy. The tagged hashtag may be updated to keep it current and periodically sampled with related video assets.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing content by generating a bookmark data structure for a topic based on determining retrieval of a first content item related to the topic, of a first content type. In response to determining retrieval of the first content item, the system may add the first content item to the bookmark data structure for the topic. The system may then determine retrieval of a second content item related to the topic, of a second content type and, in response to determining retrieval of the second content item, the system may add the second content item to the bookmark data structure for the topic. The system may generate, for display in a user interface (UI), a menu based on the data structure, with interactive UI elements that provide preview and/or access to the content item when interaction with the UI element is detected.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for receiving media content for display in a shared activity session; receiving additional content corresponding to respective users of one or more other user equipment devices participating in the shared activity session; generating for display, using control circuitry, a display screen including the media content and at least some of the additional content; and, during the shared activity session, automatically adapting the display of the additional content using the control circuitry based on the media content and/or the additional content. For example, images, avatars or video of the users displayed alongside the media content may be adapted using backgrounds or filters reflecting the media content; additional content, such as audio or chat messages, provided by those users; and/or information in their user profiles. The shared activity may be, for example, a group watch session, a videoconference, videocall, audio call, chat session or multi-player game session.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for synchronizing playback of media content items. A first media content item is displayed at first user equipment and second user equipment. At least one playback parameter relating to the operation of the first user equipment and/or the second user equipment is determined. A determination is made as to whether the at least one playback parameter is less than a first playback parameter threshold. In response to determining that the at least one playback parameter is less than the first playback parameter threshold, at least one playback characteristic of the first media content item at the first user equipment and/or the second user equipment is adjusted to cause the display of the first media content item at first user equipment and second user equipment to be synchronized.

Abstract: Systems and methods for adaptive content streaming based on bandwidth are disclosed. According to one example method, content is requested for delivery. An indication of complexity of a plurality of media content items associated with the content is received. Based on the indication of complexity and an available bandwidth at the user device, at least one of the plurality media content items is selected and retrieved from the media server.
