Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable storage media can be used to debug content items. One example method includes presenting, by a mobile application executing on a mobile device, a first application interface. The example method further includes detecting, by the mobile device, a predetermined user action. The example method further includes, in response to detecting the predetermined user action, generating debugging information from content event logs, wherein the content event logs are associated with content item slots in which content items are presented in the mobile application and presenting, by a debugging interface, the debugging information.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided encoding a video. Video data is captured. The video data is stored in a group of pictures format, where the group of pictures format comprises a plurality of GOP files, each GOP file including exactly one group of pictures unit. The video data is encoded into a prespecified format. Encoding includes accessing the GOP files containing the video data in the group of pictures format, and encoding the video data into the prespecified format using the GOP files to generate an encoded video.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a composite video based on a plurality of input streams are provided. A first video stream is received from a first device. A second video stream and coordination information are received from a second device. The coordination information includes instructions for combining the first video stream and the second video stream in a composite video. The first video stream and the second video stream are time aligned, and the instructions of the coordination information and the time-aligned first video stream and second video stream are used to generate the composite video.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing streaming video to a client computer. A system includes a broadcast sender configured to provide a plurality of video segments at each of a plurality of quality levels as segment-quality units. A load balancer is configured to transmit the segment-quality units to one of a plurality of upload servers. The upload servers are configured to update a record of received segment-quality units, and to generate updates for a streaming video manifest corresponding to the streaming video.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for remotely managing multi-stream recordings. After authenticating the log-in of a user, such as from a mobile computing device running a mobile application, the system identifies multi-stream recorders that are accessible to the user. The system displays a preview of the accessible multi-stream recorders, such as through an interface generated by the mobile application. The user may then view additional details of the accessible multi-stream recorders, begin a recording at a multi-stream recorder, or manage a scheduled or current recording.

Abstract: Various acquisition streams are delivered, synchronously or asynchronously, to a server. Those streams having local time indicia are synchronized with the global timeline and the various acquisition streams are then stored. Low bit rate streams corresponding to the stored acquisition streams are generated for use in subsequent editing of the acquisition streams. The editing of the acquisition streams entails reviewing the various acquisition streams and selecting portions for replay. The portions selected for replay are identified through metadata which is then stored. The replay or distribution mode begins by editing the global timeline using the metadata generated in the editing mode so as to produce an edited timeline. The various acquisition streams are then rendered or played back according to the edited timeline to produce a distribution stream.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a composite video based on a plurality of asynchronously recorded input video streams. A plurality of segments of the input video streams are identified. A number of the input video streams that were recording during the particular segment are determined. A video display configuration for the particular segment is determined based on the number of video streams that were recording, where the video display configuration includes a display sub-region for each of the number of video streams that was recording. A composite video is generated, where the composite video includes a portion of video associated with each of the segments, where the composite video portion associated with the particular segment is formatted according to the video display configuration and displays the video streams that were recording during the particular segment in the display sub-regions of the video display configuration.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a multi-stream composite video. A first mobile device is linked with a second mobile device so that the first mobile device and the second mobile device are time synchronized. A video stream is captured using the first mobile device. Interactions with a user interface are captured using the second mobile device. A composite video is generated based on the captured video stream and the captured interactions based on the time synchronization of the first mobile device and the second mobile device.

Abstract: A first mobile device may receive, via a text messaging application, first location information from a second mobile device. The first location information may indicate a first geographic location of the second mobile device. The first mobile device may receive, via the text messaging application, second location information from the second mobile device. The second location information may indicate a second geographic location of the second mobile device. The first mobile device may generate, based on the first location information and the second location information, a graphical representation. The graphical representation may represent a movement of the second mobile device from the first geographic location to the second geographic location. The first mobile device may provide the graphical representation for display via a display associated with the first mobile device.
