Abstract:
An electronic device with one or more processors, memory and a display receives a first request to display a first video stream that corresponds to a first channel. In response to receiving the first request, the device starts to download the first video stream from a content source for the first video stream. After starting to download the first video stream, the device displays the first video stream and starts to preload one or more video streams including a second video stream that corresponds to a second channel that is adjacent to the first channel. While displaying the first video stream, the device receives a second request to display the second video stream. In response to receiving the second request, the device displays at least a portion of the second video stream using a preloaded portion of the second video stream.
Abstract:
An electronic device presents a first song that includes a sample of a second song, different from the first song. While presenting the first song, the electronic device displays a preview control on a display. The preview control corresponds to the second song. The electronic device receives selection of the preview control and, in response to receiving the selection of the preview control, plays a preview of the second song.
Abstract:
An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a display, one or more processors, memory, and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors. The one or more programs include instructions for detecting a first input; and determining whether a change to the first input is detected within a first time period after detecting the first input. In accordance with a determination that a change to the first input is detected within the first time period after detecting the first input, first media content is added to a playlist. In accordance with a determination that a change to the first input is not detected within the first time period after detecting the first input, the first media content is caused to be presented.
Abstract:
An electronic device with one or more processors, memory and a display receives a first request to display a first video stream and in response, displays the first video stream on the display in a first video tile and plays first audio content that corresponds to the first video stream. While displaying the first video stream, the device receives a second request to display a second video stream. In response to receiving the second request, the device slides the first video tile off of the display and slides a second video tile that corresponds to second video tile onto the display. The device also starts to play second audio content for the second video stream and increases an amplitude of the second audio content relative to an amplitude of the first audio content in accordance with an amount of the second video tile that is displayed on the display.
Abstract:
An electronic device with one or more processors, memory and a display displays a first video stream on the display. While displaying the first video stream, the electronic device downloads and stores a first portion of a second video stream and receives a request to display the second video stream on the display. In response to receiving the request, the electronic device starts to play the second video stream using the first portion of the second video stream, if the first portion of the second video stream meets recency criteria with respect to a current stream time of the second video stream. But if the first portion of the second video stream does not meet the recency criteria, the electronic device requests a second portion of the second video stream that is outside of the first portion of the second video stream.
Abstract:
A client device with one or more processors, memory, and a display displays a first video stream that corresponds to a first channel in a sequence. While displaying the first video stream and before receiving a request to display a second video stream corresponding to a second channel in the sequence, the client device preloads, from a remote content source, video content of one or more intervening channels. In response to receiving the request, the client device transitions from displaying the first video stream to displaying the second video stream: a portion of the first video stream is concurrently displayed with at least a portion of the preloaded video content of one or more intervening channels, and at least a portion of the preloaded video content of one or more intervening channels is displayed concurrently with at least a portion of the second video stream.

Abstract:
An electronic device with one or more processors, memory, and a display displays a first video stream on the display and plays first audio content that corresponds to the first video stream. While displaying the first video stream and playing the first audio content, the electronic device receives a request to display a second video stream on the display. In response, the electronic device displays a visual transition from display of the first video stream to display of the second video stream; plays second audio content that corresponds to the second video stream; and increases an amplitude of the second audio content while decreasing an amplitude of the first audio content, in accordance with progress of the visual transition.
Abstract:
An electronic device with one or more processors, memory, and a display displays a first video stream on the display. The electronic device downloads and stores a portion of a second video stream and, once the portion of the second video stream has been downloaded, ceases to download the second video stream. The electronic device receives a request to display the second video stream on the display and, in response, determines whether the stored portion of the second video stream satisfies recency criteria with respect to a current stream time of the second video stream. In accordance with a determination that the stored portion of the second video stream satisfies the recency criteria, the electronic device displays at least a portion of the first video stream on the display concurrently with at least the stored portion of the second video stream.
Abstract:
An electronic device with one or more processors, memory and a display receives a first request to display a first video stream on the display. In response to receiving the first request, the electronic device displays the first video stream on the display. While displaying the first video stream on the display, the electronic device receives a second request to display a second video stream on the display. In response to receiving the second request, the electronic device displays at least a portion of the first video stream on the display concurrently with at least a portion of the second video stream, where the second video stream was received, at least in part, from a content source in response to a request from the electronic device to the content source for delivery of the second video stream from the content source.
