Abstract: A media server machine may be configured to provide media content within a datastream. This datastream may be provided to a media device that is configured to present the media content on a display. Also, this datastream may contemporaneously contain an “app-sync indicator” for the media content. The app-sync indicator is a data structure that signals the media device to launch an application on a companion device. By providing the app-sync indicator contemporaneously with the media content in the datastream, the launching of the application on the companion device may be synchronized with the media content. The app-sync indicator may specify the application to be launched. Also, the app-sync indicator may specify supplemental content to be presented by the launched application on the companion device.

Abstract translation: 媒体服务器机器可以被配置为在数据流内提供媒体内容。 该数据流可以被提供给被配置为在显示器上呈现媒体内容的媒体设备。 而且，该数据流可以同时包含媒体内容的“应用同步指示符”。 应用程序同步指示器是指示媒体设备在配套设备上启动应用程序的数据结构。 通过在数据流中与媒体内容同时提供应用同步指示符，可以在伴随设备上启动应用程序与媒体内容同步。 应用程序同步指示符可以指定要启动的应用程序。 此外，应用程序同步指示符可以指定由发布的应用在伴随设备上呈现的补充内容。
