Abstract: Providing a method for organizing portions of videos called video previews. The video previews may be associated with a playable group (e.g., one or more other videos that play simultaneously), a video channel (e.g., a collection of videos), or in a particular order for a viewer to browse. Each video channel or video in a channel can provide short, playable video preview that users can use to better decide whether to watch the full video or video channel.

Abstract: Techniques for dynamic ad hoc generation of customizable image-based files on computing device displays over interactive data networks are described, including detecting an input associated with an image, the input including data associated with one or more attributes of the image, generating an overlay configured to be at least partially transparent when visually rendered over the image, producing a file using the one or more attributes, the file including other data associated with the image, the overlay, and formatting and programmatic instructions configured to visually render the image and the overlay when another input is detected, and detecting the another input associated with placement of a visual rendering of the file and the overlay, the placement being disposed within a display window associated with an application or operating system configured, at least partially, to provide an electronic data communication function between two or more computing devices in data communication with each other in s

Abstract: Providing a method for creating and displaying portions of videos called video previews. The video previews may be associated with audio, such that when the video previews are activated, the audio may play with the video preview. When multiple video previews are organized to play as a playable group or composite of video previews, a corresponding composite audio file can play in response to an activation of the composite.

Abstract: Providing a method for browsing portions of videos called video previews. The video previews may be associated with a link or predefined duration of a full video, such that the video preview is generated from a portion of the full video and viewed by a user. The video previews are configured to play a series of images associated with images from the portion of the full video when the video preview is activated.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus can provide ordered (e.g. ranked) lists of content items as a suggested list of items to watch. The ordered list can be based on feedback from other users. The content items can also be presented (e.g. in a continuous playback mode) to a passive user so that the user does not have to actively select a next item to watch. This passive mode can select a next item (e.g. from a list that is updated based on recent user feedback), and the item can be queued on a client device for playing to a user. Content items can also be provided from different independent servers.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to a system, a device and a method for expression-based retrieval of expressive media content. A request may be received to search for content items in a media content management system. Media content items may be procured from different content sources through application programming interfaces, user devices, and/or web servers. Media content items may be analyzed to determine one or more metadata attributes, including an expressions. Metadata attributes may be stored as one or more content associations. The media content items may be stored and categorized based on the content associations. A search router rules engine may determine search intent based on the search query, which may include a pictorial representation of an expression, such as an emoji. Search results of media content items may be presented in the dynamic interface as animated inputs presented concurrently in animation.
