Abstract: A content processing service may analyze an item of original content and identify several objects, attributes of those objects, and relationships between those objects present in the item of original content. The content processing service may also analyze a source graph, such as a social graph or supplemental graph, and identify several objects, attributes of those objects, and relationships between those objects present in the source graph. The content processing service may customize the item of original content by selecting an original object and selecting a source graph object. One or more of the attributes or relationships of the selected original object in the item of original content may be replaced by one or more of the attributes or relationships of the selected source graph object, thereby forming an item of modified content.

Abstract translation: 内容处理服务可以分析原始内容的项目，并且识别这些对象的属性，以及存在于原始内容中的那些对象之间的关系。 内容处理服务还可以分析诸如社交图或补充图的源图，并且识别几个对象，这些对象的属性以及源图中存在的那些对象之间的关系。 内容处理服务可以通过选择原始对象并选择源图形对象来定制原始内容的项目。 原始内容项目中所选择的原始对象的一个​​或多个属性或关系可以被所选择的源图形对象的一个​​或多个属性或关系替换，从而形成修改内容的项目。

Abstract: A selective synchronization service may facilitate the synchronous presentation of corresponding audio content and textual content. Corresponding words in companion items of audio and textual content may be selected for synchronous presentation. A corresponding word may be selected for synchronous audible and textual presentation according to any of a number of criteria. Further, a corresponding word may be selected for a modified synchronous presentation, in which the audible and/or textual presentation of the corresponding word is modified. Alternately, a corresponding word may be selected for an audible presentation without a textual presentation, or a textual presentation without an audible presentation.

Abstract translation: 选择性同步服务可以促进对应的音频内容和文本内容的同步呈现。 可以选择音频和文本内容的伴随项目中的相应单词用于同步呈现。 可以根据多个标准中的任何一个来选择对应的词来进行同步的可听和文本呈现。 此外，对于修改的同步呈现，可以选择对应的字，其中相应词的可听和/或文本呈现被修改。 或者，可以为没有文本呈现的语音呈现而选择相应的单词，或者在没有可听见的呈现的情况下选择文本呈现。

Abstract: Features are disclosed for identifying multiple users contending for use of a shared media device with which to present a content item. Users may be detected by the shared media device or a management component, and each user may have previously begun and stopped consumption at a different point within the content item. When multiple users wish to consume the content, a component or module determines which presentation position to use, or creates a new presentation position for use. In cases in which not all users have begun consuming or wish to consume the same content item, a component or module determines which content item to present.

Abstract: Users may have a set duration during which they may consume content, or they may have a variable duration during which they may consume content. A content pacing service is disclosed so that a portion of an item of content may be conveyed in the set duration during which a user is to consume the content. In one embodiment, the rate at which the content is conveyed is increased or decreased so that a reference point in the item of content (e.g., the end of a chapter in an audiobook) is reached approximately when the duration of the user's content consumption ends.
