Publication number: 20230139333Abstract: An electronic device provides, to a user, a user-curated playlist, the user-curated playlist including an ordered set of media items that were added by the user. While providing a first media item in the ordered set of media items, the electronic device receives a first user input selecting an option to include recommended media items in the user-curated playlist. In response to the first user input, the electronic device updates the user-curated playlist to include a first recommended media item, the first recommended media item selected without user intervention based at least in part on attributes of the user-curated playlist. The first recommended media item is positioned in the user-curated playlist in between media items that were added to the ordered set of media items by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Inventors: Gustav SÖDERSTRÖM, Sandra Kristina HANSSON, Jason Allen RUSSELL, Kelly DRECOURT, Morgan HECHT, Simon AMOR, Ajay Mathew KALIA, Jeremy HOPPLE, Jonathan MARMOR, Bianca CAPRETTA, Ingrid Maria PETTERSSON, Matthew BUDELMAN, Björn Håkan LINDBERG, Gabriella Maria Eleonora LJUNGGREN, Ian Alexander VANNEST, Tim Olsson WIKLUND, Gastón MONTEMAYOR OLAIZOLA

Publication number: 20200045365Abstract: An electronic device with one or more processors and memory starts to download first content from a content delivery server. The first content corresponds to a first channel in a predetermined sequence of channels. While downloading the first content and before presenting second content that corresponds to a second channel that is adjacent to the first channel in the predetermined sequence of channels, the device presents the first content and periodically preloads, using a connection over the Internet to a content delivery server for the second content, portions of the second content from the content delivery server for the second content. The device periodically stores the preloaded portions of the second content in the memory. While presenting the first content, the electronic device receives a request for the second content. In response to receiving the request, the device transitions between presenting the first content to presenting the second content.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2019Publication date: February 6, 2020Inventors: Eric Hoffert, Mike Berkley, Kevin Faaborg, Gustav Söderström

Patent number: 10110947Abstract: An electronic device with one or more processors, memory and a display displays a first video stream on the display. While displaying the first video stream, the electronic device downloads and stores a first portion of a second video stream and receives a request to display the second video stream on the display. In response to receiving the request, the electronic device starts to play the second video stream using the first portion of the second video stream, if the first portion of the second video stream meets recency criteria with respect to a current stream time of the second video stream. But if the first portion of the second video stream does not meet the recency criteria, the electronic device requests a second portion of the second video stream that is outside of the first portion of the second video stream.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2017Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: SPOTIFY ABInventors: Eric Hoffert, Mike Berkley, Kevin Faaborg, Gustav Soderstrom
