摘要： Various technologies for delivering contextual television advertisement are described. A user selection of a media title is received. The media title has an associated set of contextual metadata that includes information regarding the media title. A request for the media title is forwarded to a first server and an advertisement request including the set of contextual metadata is forwarded to a second server. The second server uses the set of contextual metadata to retrieve contextual television advertisement information. The contextual television advertisement information and the media title are received from the second server and the first server respectively. Also, the contextual television advertisement information and the media title are played.

摘要： Detailed herein is a technology which, among other things, allows integration of context-relevant advertisements with non-real-time video playback. In one approach to this technology, context information related to video content is determined, and used to select advertisements which are contextually related to video content. These advertisements can then be integrated into the video presentation in a number of ways.

摘要： Automatically marking locations of user interest in media content is disclosed. Data that describes user interaction with media content is analyzed to determine locations of potential interest. For each of the locations of potential interest, the data is analyzed to determine whether user interest satisfies a criterion for establishing a mark for the location. Marks are determined for those locations that satisfy the criterion. A mark includes a description for a given location and information that allows the given location to be automatically presented to a user upon selection of the description. In another aspect, extrinsic data that is separate from a piece of media content is analyzed to determine whether moments of high user interest might exist in the piece of media content. Then, the piece of media content is scanned to find locations in the media content that correspond to the moments.

摘要： Techniques are disclosed herein for applying different content protection schemes to different segments of digital content. A method for protecting digital content includes determining segments within digital content that is organized to allow presentation in a certain order. Each of the segments is assigned to a category of a group of categories. Each of the categories has a different content protection scheme associated therewith. One of the protection schemes is applied to each segment based on the category associated with the segment.

摘要： A system that includes a content distribution facility coupled to at least one client device for presenting programming via a presentation device having a screen. The system displays on the screen first content having an associated characteristic. In response to an event other than user selection of a program, the system displays a message stored in at least one of the distribution facility and client device. The message includes subject matter corresponding to the characteristic.

摘要： An exemplary multi-axis television navigation system defines television navigation axes according to attributes of television programs. In one implementation, if a television program has an attribute defining an axis, then the exemplary system links a predefined database query associated with the axis to metadata for the television program. When launched, the predefined query returns a sequence of navigable television programs having the attribute that defines the axis.

摘要： The present disclosure relates to displaying full scale images with overlaid similar scaled images and a graphical user device in a display of a client device. The client device receives video streams of the full scale images and scaled images. The video streams are broadcast independent of one another, and a user of the client device may manipulate the format of the images of either or both streams, and/or place the scaled image on any portion of the full scaled image. The graphical user interface is placed so it does not obscure the scaled image. Alternatively a single video stream may be received by the client device. When a single video stream is received, the client device creates two video streams, one stream comprising full scale images and the other stream comprising scaled images. The full scale image is overlaid with the scaled image and the graphical user interface.
