Abstract:
A method may include in response to a user request for a playlist, identifying, by a processing device, a plurality of media items from the playlist, for each of the plurality of media items, determining whether a respective media item is available for a playback on a user device, in response to a determination that the respective media item is not available for the playback on the user device, causing the use device to advance to a next media item on the playlist without user interaction, and in response to a determination that the respective media item is available for the playback on the user device, causing the user device to play the respective media item.
Abstract:
Offline sharing of content is performed. An offline request to share content associated with a content sharing platform to a social networking service is received by a processing device of a user device. The offline request is received while the user device is not connected to a network. A share request is generated for the content in view of the social networking service. The share request for the content is generated while the user device is not connected to the network. Upon determining that a network connection is available, the share request for the content is provided to the social networking service.
Abstract:
A system and method for sharing a plurality of intents via an application executed on a device, the application serving content from a content provider is described. The system includes an application detector to detect an application executed via an operating system on the device to serve the plurality of the intents; an available intent retriever to retrieve a plurality of operating system intents associated with the operating system; an intent selector to select amongst the plurality of operating system intents to serve as the plurality of intents via the application; and an intent order module to determine an order of serving for the plurality of intents.
Abstract:
A processing device determines a rendering mode for a media item being presented in a user interface on a mobile device. The rendering mode is one of multiple rendering modes. The processing device determines a set of captioning parameters that corresponds to the rendering mode of the media item and provides captioning for the media item in the user interface based on the set of captioning parameters that corresponds to the rendering mode.
Abstract:
Implementations generally relate to providing control points in images. In some implementations, a method includes determining one or more control points in an image. The method also includes determining one or more image manipulation transforms corresponding to each control point. The method also includes providing the one or more control points and the one or more corresponding image manipulation transforms to a user.
Abstract:
A dynamic selection of content from social shares to display in a user interface is performed. A request for a user interface (UI) document is received. A set of identifiers is associated with the UI document. The set of identifiers includes a page identifier for the UI document. An identifier list for a social share associated with the UI document is obtained in view of the page identifier. The identifier list associated with the social share is updated in view of the set of identifiers associated with the UI document. The UI document is modified to provide a representation associated with an identifier selected from the updated identifier list for the social share.
Abstract:
In some implementations, a method includes identifying one or more face regions of an image, the face regions including pixels that depict at least a portion of one or more faces of persons. The face regions are identified based on identifying facial landmarks of the faces. The method determines an associated face mask for each of the faces based on the face regions, where each face mask indicates which pixels in the image depict the corresponding face. Face pixels can be selected for processing by applying the face masks, and image pixels outside the faces can be selected by inversely applying the face masks. The selected pixels can be provided to a processing operation for adjustment of the selected pixels.
Abstract:
A dynamic media player is disclosed. A method for providing the dynamic media player includes presenting a media player in a first portion of a user interface (UI) of a content sharing platform on a mobile device. The media player is to provide playback of a media item. The method further includes receiving, via a second portion of the UI, a user request to perform an activity that is independent of the viewing of the media item. The method further includes presenting content associated with the requested activity while continuing to provide playback of the media item in the media player of the first portion of the UI.
Abstract:
In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request for content to be presented in a specified content slot of a specified content page; calculating an active view scroll distance of the specified content slot with respect to the specified content page, the active view scroll distance corresponding to a measurement of a distance that the specified content page would have to be scrolled to change visibility of content displayed in the specified content slot by a specified amount; performing an auction of content items utilizing in part the active view scroll distance; and providing one or more content items in response to the request and as a result of the auction.
