Abstract: A media presentation and distribution system communicatively coupled to a client device, which handles enablement of a client-side dynamic presentation of at least one non-programming media asset along with programming media content. The client device receives a first media stream of the programming media content in response to a request, associated with at least one user preference for the programming media content, to the media presentation and distribution system. The client device identifies at least one tag in the programming media content and transmits at least one event opportunity point for selection to the media presentation distribution system. Based on the selection, the client device modifies a display view of the client device for a defined duration, and presents the at least one non-programming media asset, from a second media stream for the defined duration, concurrently with the programming media content over the modified display view of the client device.

Abstract: A media presentation and distribution system (MPDS) communicatively coupled to a client device, which handles media content distribution via a content delivery network, to a client device associated with a user: identifies candidate time intervals in programming media content played at the client device based on at least a request received from the client device. The MPDS retrieves media content from a media store in the MPDS. The media content is retrieved based on at least one of the user intent information and a plurality of targeting parameters associated with the user. The MPDS dynamically generates personalized media content that corresponds to the candidate time intervals in the programming media content and further instructs playback of the dynamically generated personalized media content at the identified candidate time intervals based on the specified version of the programming media content played at the client device.

Abstract: A hardware media content packaging and distribution system that handles distribution of one or more channels to be viewed on one or more of a plurality of consumer devices, receives a media feed and a first programming schedule of a first channel of the one or more channels from a source device. Instructions are received from a programming service and/or a user-preference is received from a first consumer device of the plurality of consumer devices on which the first channel is viewed. Based on content context analysis, one or more other live feeds of other channels of the one or more channels or pre-encoded media assets, are analyzed. Based on the content context analysis, a media item is recommended to be inserted in the media feed of the first channel, based on the received user-preference. The recommended media item is dynamically scheduled in the media feed of the first channel to be delivered over a distribution system to be viewed on the first consumer device based on the content context analysis.

Abstract: A system that handles delivery of a service through a client device or a secondary device paired with the client device, includes an interactive service provider and the client device. The interactive service provider inserts at least one of digital watermarks, fingerprints, and trigger identifiers at event opportunities in media content. The client device detects at least one of the inserted digital watermarks, the digital fingerprints, and the inserted trigger identifiers in the media content. The client device further renders overlay graphics on the media content and activates at least one of input devices in vicinity of the client device or the rendered overlay graphics. The client device receives trigger responses over an activated overlay graphic, via the activated input devices. The client device further displays an interactive view on the client device, to enable delivery of services in response to the received trigger responses.

Abstract: An event trigger management system, which handles management and delivery of services on a user device that streams media content from a distribution network, determines one or more media items present in media content of the distribution network. One or more interactive items are overlaid over the one or more media items in the media content and one or more event triggers are received from a client application engine, operational on the user device, based on selection of one or more interactive items. A personalized list is generated based on one or more received event triggers for selection of one or more overlaid interactive items and the generated personalized list is displayed or transmitted to distribution network(s) or application engines associated with the user device.
