20120197419 | Media Playback Control - Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for performing an action during playback based on a media manifest file. A system, such as a media player, configured to practice the method receives a media manifest, extracts, from the media manifest, a list of media chunks and at least one tag associated with the list of media chunks. The list of media chunks can describe two or more separate media assets. Then the system parses the at least one tag to identify an action to perform during playback and a playback position to perform the action. The system retrieves, for playback, at least one media chunk associated with the playback position from the list of media chunks, and, during playback of the at least one media chunk and at the playback position, performs the action. Modifying the media playback control can include temporarily disabling a media playback control. | 08-02-2012 |
20120198089 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CUSTOM SEGMENTATION FOR STREAMING VIDEO - Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for segmenting video.

Then the system segments the video asset into a set of chunks, wherein at least one of a final chunk and a penultimate chunk is less than the optimal streaming chunk duration and greater than the minimum streaming chunk duration, and wherein each remaining chunk is of the optimal streaming chunk duration. The system can segment the video asset based on keyframes or codecs. The system can optionally compile a video manifest file, such as an m3u8 file, containing pointers to each chunk in the set of chunks.

Then, the system divides the media presentation into a set of media chunks and divides the advertisement into a set of advertising chunks. The system inserts the set of advertising chunks into the set of media chunks at the advertising slot to yield an updated set of media chunks, and generates a manifest file corresponding to the updated set of media chunks, such as an m3u8 file that contains a series of links to each chunk in the updated set of media chunks. The system optionally transmits the manifest file to a media playback device for playback. | 08-02-2012 |
