Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for providing a media guidance application that resizes content based on a relative importance of the content. For example, a display may have first and second content generated for display. If the first content is more important to a user than the second content, a size of the first content will be increased with respect to a size of the second content on the display. If the second content is more important to the user than the first content, then a size of the second content will be increased with respect to a size of the first content on the display.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a manifest presentation description for a media presentation. The manifest presentation description includes an opportunity that requires resolution to determine supplemental content for the opportunity. A request to resolve the opportunity is sent where information for the supplemental content that is received from the request is inserted in an instance of the media presentation description. The method stores the information for the supplemental content in association with an identifier for the opportunity. An update to the manifest presentation description is received where the update includes the opportunity. The method retrieves the information for the supplemental content that was stored in association with the identifier for the opportunity and inserts the information for the supplemental content into the instance of the update to the manifest presentation description.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present application disclose a method and apparatus for determining an object adding mode, an electronic device and a medium. A specific implementation of the method includes: obtaining a target video and a to-be-added object set to be added to a target video; determining time periods corresponding to storyboards of the target video; determining a presentation period of a to-be-added object in the to-be-added object set in the target video based on the time periods corresponding to the storyboards; generating object adding indication information based on the determined presentation period, where the object adding indication information includes time prompt information used to indicate the presentation period of the to-be-added object in the to-be-added object set in the target video. According to this implementation, automatic selection of time for adding the to-be-added object to the target video is realized.

Abstract: A technique is described for generating a unified list (e.g., a list ribbon) of programs from a variety and disparate channels, the list for display on an over-the-top (OTT) client device. As an example, the unified list can be generated from OTT live channels and from over-the-air OTA and/or Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) live channels. Further, the unified list can include OTT recordings on the cloud and OTA/ATSC recordings on the local hard drive connected to an OTA local DVR. Thus, the OTT device Client obtains the list from the DVR backend, instead of going to the local OTA client box for the local recordings.

Abstract: This disclosure covers systems and methods that both transmit a live video stream from a broadcaster device to viewer devices and relay video clips of reactions (by viewers to the live video stream) to the broadcaster device during presentation of the live video stream. In certain embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods facilitate viewers capturing video clips of reactions to a live video stream using a viewer device and, in turn, transmit video clips received from the viewer device to a broadcaster device during broadcast of the live video stream. For instance, in some embodiments, the systems and methods present the video clips of a viewer's reaction to the broadcaster device during a live-video-stream broadcast. Additionally, in some embodiments, the systems and methods present video clips of other viewers' reactions to a viewer device during a live-video-stream broadcast.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for processing a video are provided technology. The method may include: separating a foreground image and a background image from a video frame in the target video stream, in response to acquiring a target video stream; adding a to-be-displayed content at a target display position in the background image to obtain a processed background image; and combining the foreground image and the processed background image to obtain a target video frame. The present disclosure may directly render the to-be-displayed content in the background, so that the content displayed in the background does not block a body in the foreground, such as person.

Abstract: A system is configured to enhance a video feed in real time. A live video feed captured by a video capturing device is received. A presentation of the live video feed on one or more client devices is enhanced. The enhancing includes causing a first content item of a plurality of content items to be displayed at a first location within the presentation of the live video feed. Based on a detecting of a first instance of a first gesture made by a hand at the first location in the live video feed, a content item manipulation mode with respect to the first content item is entered. The entering of the content item manipulation mode with respect to the first content includes at least one of causing the first content item to be moved within the presentation of the live video feed based on a movement of the hand or causing a scale of the first content item to be changed within the presentation of the live video feed based on a detecting of a second gesture made by the hand.

Abstract: A method for comment information display includes steps described below: Comment information of a plurality of target videos in a video collection is acquired; a bullet comment file is generated according to the comment information; and in response to any target video in the video collection being played, the bullet comment file is loaded in segments according to a preset playing rule, and each piece of the comment information is displayed in a form of scrolling display of the bullet comment file.

Abstract: This application is directed to presenting a unified user interface on a network-connected television device. The unified user interface displays media content recommendations selected and organized based on knowledge of a user (e.g., search queries, search results, watch history, purchase history, physical activities). The unified user interface also includes a focus area for displaying a series of media content items (e.g., an advertisement) sequentially according to a temporal order for the purposes of promoting a media content item, product, event or service. In some implementations, playback of a media content item presented on the unified user interface relies on a collaborative implementation of a corresponding media player application and a media content casting application, particularly when the play involves a restricted mode. The content casting application is enabled to play the media content item at the restrict mode when the media player application does not operate in the restricted mode.
