Abstract: A device, system and method for real-time personalization of streaming video is provided. The device has access to a memory storing: nonpersonalized video segments; and data for rendering personalized video segments, the nonpersonalized video segments and the personalized video segments associated with a given order. When a request for a personalized video is received, the device causes rendering of at least a subset of the personalized video segments to be rendered using the data, incorporating personal data associated with the request into the personalized video segments. As the personalized video segments are rendered, the device updates and transmits a manifest, to the communication device, identifying available video segments according to the given order. The video segments identified in the manifest are provided to the communication device in response to receiving requests for the video segments.

Abstract: A computing device includes: an input assembly; a display; and a controller configured to: execute a browser application to control the display to render a page containing a media presentation element to present multimedia content received at the computing device, a primary seek element selectable to control a playback position in the media presentation element, wherein the primary seek element includes an attribute hiding the primary seek element from a screen reader process of the computing device, and an auxiliary seek element selectable to control the playback position in the media presentation element; receive input data indicating a selection of the auxiliary seek element generated via execution of the screen reader process; and in response, control the display to adjust the playback position in the media presentation element according to the input data.

Abstract: A device, system and method for embedded video chat is provided. A device renders, at a display device, a text-based application that includes a region for rendering an embeddable video chat application. The device retrieves, using a communication interface, from a server, the embeddable video chat application associated with an identifier. The device embeds the embeddable video chat application in the region of the display device. The device identifies, using the embeddable video chat application as retrieved from the server, a remote instance of the embeddable video chat application also identified using the identifier. The device initiates a video communication session with the remote instance of the embeddable video chat application using the display device and the camera device.
