Abstract: In aspects of fast television channel change initiated from a second screen device, a mobile device implemented as the second screen device can receive a navigation input in a viewport displayed on an integrated display of the mobile device. Video selection options for video content are displayed in the viewport on the integrated display of the mobile device responsive to the navigation input. A content display application on the mobile device can determine video identifiers of the video content for each of the video selection options displayed in the viewport, where each video identifier uniquely identifies a respective video content. The mobile device can then communicate the video identifiers to a first screen device, such as a television display device, that initiates a request to a video content server for initial video data corresponding to each of the video content based on the video identifiers received from the mobile device.

Abstract: In aspects of reverse casting from a first screen device to a second screen device, a mobile device implemented as the second screen device can determine that it is proximate in location to the first screen device, such as a television device, based on both the mobile device and the television device being connected to a local network. The mobile device and the television device can be automatically associated to enable data being synchronized between the two devices based on determining that the devices are proximate in location. The television device displays video content prior to the two devices being associated. The mobile device can then receive contextual information that corresponds to the video content being displayed on the television device. The contextual information can be determined by an automated analysis of the video content at a video content service as the video content is distributed to the television device.

Abstract: This document describes techniques using, and devices embodying, integral program content distribution. These techniques and devices enable a request for program content to be received from an end-user device. In response to the request, an integral version of the requested program content is determined using an indication of a program content transition that corresponds to an apparent broadcast time of the requested program content. The program content can be transmitted to the end-user device as part of a cloud-based digital video recorder (DVR) system.

Abstract: In aspects of multiple-device media swap, a mobile device in a video content viewing system displays first video content on an integrated display of the device, and receives second video content without displaying the second video content. The mobile device continues to receive the second video content, without displaying the second video content, while the first video content is received and presented. The mobile device can initiate an instruction to swap from displaying the first video content to displaying the second video content on the integrated display of the mobile device. The instruction also initiates another device of the video content viewing system that is receiving both the first and second video content to swap from displaying the second video content to displaying the first video content.

Abstract: In one general aspect, a method can include determining, by a computer system, that a user is interested in receiving reminders about particular content, identifying, by the computer system, a particular entity from a plurality of entities, the particular entity being associated with the particular content and including criteria for use in creating a reminder to the user about availability of the particular content, automatically creating the reminder for the user based on the criteria, and scheduling the reminder for activation on a computing device when the computing device is determined to be in proximity to a physical location that includes a device that provides the particular content to the user.
