Abstract: A computing device plays at least one first video content segment. The video content segment may be a portion of an interactive video content sequence including multiple segments that may each be selected during play of one or more of the other segments. The computing device determines one or more second video content segments that are associated with the first video content segment. Such determination may be made by analyzing information describing an interactive video content sequence of which the video content segment is a part. The computing device attempts to load one or more second video content segments. In this way, play of the video content segments may reduce and/or avoid delays in changing the video content being played.

Abstract: An external application is loaded by an electronic device. The external application loads one or more internal applications. The internal application loads a player application, such as a video player. At least one communication channel is configured between the external application and the player application. Subsequently, the player application may provide signals to the external application via the communication connection when one or more events occur. In response, the external application may perform one or more actions and/or may provide reply signals to the player application. Additionally, the player application may provide instructions to the external application and/or the external application may provide instructions to the player application.
