  • Patent number: 10467684
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product to facilitate video interactions between a publisher, and a set of end users, the publisher having content available from a network-accessible site. Each end user has a device that includes a media player. In one embodiment, the method begins by receiving (e.g., via a web-based interface) information to configure a video module to execute in association with the end user media players. A particular instance of the video module is adapted to execute as an end user media player renders a video to provide interactivity to the video. Preferably, the interactivity specifies at least one of a set of interactivity actions available to an end user. The video module is then published. After deployment the video module, the platform receives data about (i) execution of the video module in the end user media players, and (ii) the interactivity actions.
