A first programming schedule is published that comprises a functionality that is enabled via constraints and rights associated with a first disparate live media output stream. At least one of the first disparate live media output stream is altered or a second disparate live media output stream is generated based on an insertion of manifest data and indexed metadata of a programming content, associated with a program identifier referenced in the first programming schedule, to the first disparate live media output stream manifest in accordance with the functionality. The altered first disparate live media output stream or the generated second disparate live media output stream comprises an updated playback position.

Abstract: A system is provided for client-side dynamic presentation of programming content in indexed disparate live media output stream. In response to a client request, an updated playback position is presented in at least one of an altered first disparate live media output stream or a generated second disparate live media output stream at a client interface based on an insertion of manifest data and indexed metadata associated with a program identifier. The program identifier is associated with a programming content and is referenced in a published first programming schedule with respect to a playback position in the published first programming schedule. The published first programming schedule comprises a functionality enabled via constraints and rights associated with an indexed first disparate live media output stream.

Abstract: A system is provided for publishing a disparate live media output stream manifest that includes one or more media segments corresponding to key events. A play time of pre-produced media asset metadata is converted to a reference time of a reference clock based on normalized event metadata. The normalized event metadata references time is provided by the reference clock and a plurality of play events from a live playout and production system. Start and end messages for publishing the normalized event metadata are transmitted each time a pre-produced media asset is started and stopped during a playout in a disparate live media output stream. The normalized event metadata is published based on conversion of timestamps for one or more key events to the reference time of the reference clock.

Abstract: A system generates a disparate live media output stream manifest based on a programming schedule, an additional parameter, and one of a first live input stream manifest or a first pre-encoded media asset manifest. Based on a first transition or a second transition, a different pre-encoded media asset manifest or a different live input stream manifest is inserted to the disparate live media output stream manifest. A first live input stream or a first pre-encoded media asset is switched to a different pre-encoded media asset, or a different live input stream based on the insertion. The first live input stream manifest or the first pre-encoded media asset manifest is modified based on the switching of the first live input stream or the first pre-encoded media asset to the different pre-encoded media asset or the different live input stream.

Abstract: A media presentation and distribution system includes a verification server that handles dynamic verification of playback of media assets on a client device. The client device generates support information for a media asset based on an associated asset identifier that is detected during a playback of the media asset on a client device. The client device further encrypts the support information for the media asset based on a client private key associated with the client device and an asset public key for the media asset. The playback of the media asset on the client device is verified based on a verification message, the support information, an encrypted verification message, and the associated asset identifier. A defined asset delivery criteria is satisfied and a deviation or an error with the playback of the media asset is identified based on the verification of the playback of the media asset.

Abstract: A system identifies a candidate time interval in programming media content for a playback of a media content along with the programming media content. The identification is based on an analysis of a request received from a client device. The media content is based on user intent information and a plurality of targeting parameters associated with a user. Based on a specified version of the programming media content currently played at the client device, the media content is modified. Personalized media content corresponding to the candidate time interval in the programming media content is generated based on the modified media content and one or more constraints associated with the user. The personalized media content is presented along with a modified display view of the programming media content at the candidate time interval.

Abstract: Provided is a system that includes a circuit to generate an interactive item based on a request received from a first distribution network or a second distribution network.

Abstract: A system is provided for generating a live output stream manifest based on an event. Each of a set of discrete service engines ingest a portion of a programming schedule comprising a playlist of media content. Based on processing of source manifests encapsulated by the media content, a collection of disparate manifest units is obtained. The collection of disparate manifest units is stored as indexed disparate manifest units in a data store based on a set of indexing parameters. Based on an event including a set of indexed disparate manifest units retrieved from the data store, a live output stream manifest is generated during a current iteration in response to a client request comprising a set of client request parameters. The retrieval of the set of indexed disparate manifest units is performed just-in-time based on a query that corresponds to the set of client request parameters.

Abstract: Provided is a system that identifies a tag in a media content of a media stream based on a user-attribute of a client device. A candidate time-period is identified in a playback duration of the media content based on the identified tag in the media content. Based on a degree of correlation between the identified tag in the media content and a corresponding context for the media content at the candidate time-period, an overlay-graphic item corresponding to the identified tag is presented at the candidate time-period in the media content.

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: A system is provided for publishing a disparate live media output stream manifest that includes media segments corresponding to key events. A live production and playout system of disparate sub-systems is synchronized to a reference clock. A timecode from the reference clock is used as a reference time to log content related to key events that occur within the live production and playout system. A live event logging system is synchronized to the reference clock same as the live production and playout system. Based on location of the live event logging system, a time offset is introduced to compensate for a delay. When delay is variable, the reference clock is decoded from a live input stream to associate each key event with a corresponding timecode. Based on a programming schedule comprising the key events that occurred in the live input stream, the disparate live media output stream manifest is published.

Abstract: A system and a method is provided for publishing a disparate live media output stream that complies with distribution format regulations. The system includes a memory for storing instructions and a processor that executes the instructions. Based on the instructions, the processor is manipulates a manifest of a live input stream based on a media segment identified for an edit. The manipulation of the manifest corresponds to removal of references to the media segment prior to a live event start indicator and after a live event end indicator, maintenance of indicators that mark locations of a non-programming content, and removal of duration information and referenced media segment that corresponds to originally scheduled non-programming content. A pre-encoded media asset is generated for a repeated playback based on the manipulation of the manifest of the live input stream.

Abstract: A stream playout and distribution system is provided for disparate live media output stream playout and broadcast distribution. The system generates a new version of a disparate live media output stream manifest based on insertion of a plurality of segments of at least one of a pre-encoded media asset or a live input stream into the disparate live media output stream manifest. Each segment of the plurality of segments corresponds to a different quality level and a different content encryption mode. The plurality of segments corresponds to broadcast content segments encoded in a first encoding format of the new version of the disparate live media output stream manifest. The system converts the broadcast content segments encoded in the first encoding format to a second encoding format in accordance with a broadcasting protocol.

Abstract: A system is provided for concurrent presentation of non-programming media assets with programming media content at a client device. The client device receives a response for occurrence of an event opportunity point from the media presentation and distribution system based on a selection criteria for the event opportunity point. A display view of the client device is modified, and a non-programming media asset is presented from a second media stream for a defined duration and different version of the programming media content in first partition, concurrently with the programming media content over second partition. The different version of the programming media content corresponds to the programming media content encoded based on a region within the modified display view allocated to the first partition. The presentation is based on user preference for specific item in the programming media content and user selection of the non-programming media asset displayed in past engagement.

Abstract: A system is provided for establishing a shared media session for client devices that receives event data and media corresponding to a shared media session and previous shared media sessions from a recording client device communicably coupled to a distributed communication network. A persistent record of the event data and media is generated until the shared media session is terminated by at least one of a first client device or by abandonment of the distributed communication network by the first client device and by second client devices. A new disparate live media output stream is generated with multiple distinct channels based on augmentation of a disparate live media output stream in the shared media session. The augmentation is based on an interaction from a user on actions in the shared media session.
