摘要： In one embodiment, a system stores video clips which a user can select and use to create an ad video. The user can download the video clip, edit it appropriate, and then upload the ad video to the system. The user can then place the ad with a cable service provider as part of an ad campaign. The system allows the user to view available advertising opportunities with one or more video service providers, such as a cable service provider, and then define attributes of an ad campaign defining how and when to stream the ad in various programs. The ad campaign can place the ad in on-demand programs or schedule (broadcast) programs. The user can also be provided with reports indicating in part when the ad was actually streamed, allowing the user evaluate the performance of the ad campaign.

摘要： A method and arrangements at a multimedia distribution network for estimating a present user constellation of a household are suggested. A sequence of textual descriptors that are associated with a multimedia sequence that is presently provided to the household is monitored. By acquiring a set of parameters of a statistical model that is based on textual descriptors that have previously been provided to the household, and by estimating a present user constellation by correlating the sequence of textual descriptors with the parameters of the statistical model, the estimated information may be used for customization of content that is provided to the household.

摘要： A method of operating a digital video service set top box system is provided. The set top box system accommodates playback of locally stored recorded secondary digital video content. The method begins by initiating playback of a primary digital video program. Insertion points associated with the primary digital video program are detected; these insertion points indicate frame-accurate transition points in the primary digital video program. During playback of the primary digital video program, the recorded secondary digital video program is inserted at any appropriate insertion point in a frame-accurate manner. The termination of the secondary digital video program is likewise marked and triggers a return to the primary digital video program, at the original insertion point or any other desired insertion point which may exist in the primary digital video program.

摘要： A method of splicing a first data stream and a second data stream is disclosed. The method comprising detecting a splice in-point and a splice out-point within the first data stream, wherein the splice in-point is a frame in the first data stream and the splice out-point is another frame in the first data stream. The method further identifies splice-in opportunity point and a splice-out opportunity point from a plurality of splice opportunity points (SOPs) in the first data stream, wherein the splice-in opportunity point corresponds to the splice in-point and the splice-out opportunity point corresponds to the splice out-point, wherein the splice-in opportunity point and the splice-out opportunity point are frames of the first data stream. The method replaces at least one frame of the first data stream with at least one frame of the second data stream, wherein the replacement of the frames of the first data stream starts onwards the splice-in opportunity point and ends at the splice-out opportunity point; and wherein the first data stream includes a plurality of frames and the second data stream includes a plurality of frames. The method performs the splicing operation without de-packetization of the first data stream. In addition, the replacement of the frames does not require re-ordering of the frames of the first data stream.

摘要： in an internet protocol television (IPTV) system, fast channel change (FCC) transactions that experience late multicast joins are handled specially, thereby allowing the system to be provisioned for the vast majority of multicast joins that are within an expected range. During an FCC transaction, the subscriber interface device, such as a set-top box. (STB), can determine how iong it can wait to join the multicast stream of the new channel before a gap can be predicted to occur in the handover from the FCC υnicast to the multicast. If the STB has not joined the multicast stream by the determined time, a recovery procedure is invoked in which rhe STB sends a RESTART request to the FCC server which, in tym, increases the rate of the FCC unicast as i f the FCC transaction were restarted, thus allowing the handover to occur seamlessly. This solution reduces the demands of each FCC transaction, allowing for greater scalability and reduced cost.

摘要： Described herein are techniques for presenting non-common content in association with common content to end users (110). A television receiver (104) receives common content (102) as well as one or more portions of non-common content. The television receiver determines (608) whether to present the non-common content based on criteria associated with the non-common content and parameters associated with the television receiver. As appropriate, the non-common content may be overlaid (610) onto the common content, presenting the user with content that may be localized or otherwise personalized for the user.

摘要： Described are computer-based methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for input queued content switching using a playlist. A retrieval sequence is generated using a plurality of content requests based on content location information. A first portion of content is requested to be queued at a first content source, and a second portion of content is requested to be queued at a second content source. A content stream of the first portion and the second portion of content is generated using the retrieval sequence. The generating includes selecting the first portion of content from a queue associated with the first content source and transferring the first portion of content to an output buffer, then terminating transfer of the first portion of content and initiating transfer of the second portion of content from a queue associated with the second content source. The portion of content in the output buffer is transmitted to a client device.

摘要： A client device receives a broadcast content signal containing an interactive identifier over a managed network at a client device. The interactive identifier may be a trigger that is included in a header or embedded within the digital video data. The trigger may have a temporal component, wherein the trigger can expire after a certain period of time. In response to identification of the trigger, the client device sends a user request for interactive content over an unmanaged network. For example, the managed network may be a one-way satellite television network, IP -television network or cable television network and the unmanaged network may be the Internet. The client device switches between receiving data from the managed network to receiving data from the unmanaged network.
