20140207964 | Method And System For Identifying Events In A Streaming Media Program - The present invention teaches a method and system for uniquely defining and identifying events within a streaming media program. Programs and additional content can be stored with inband data in the stored content and that inband data can be dynamically updated, to include additional information such as instance counters, when the stored content it is requested by a rendering device. The additional information is used to uniquely identify the rendering of the program or additional content to allow a rendering device to perform actions based upon those unique identifiers. | 07-24-2014 |
20130282915 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INSERTING CONTENT INTO STREAMING MEDIA AT ARBITRARY TIME POINTS - The present invention teaches a method and system of inserting content into streaming media programs without requiring re-encoding and/or re-segmenting of the program, thus allowing the insertion point within the media program to be selected as desired. The system and method operate on the relevant chunks of the streaming program to repackage those chunks, even in real time, to provide a chunk boundary at the desired insertion point in the streamed program to permit seamless playback of the main program and inserted content. | 10-24-2013 |
