  • Overwriting existing media content with viewer-specific advertisements
    Patent number: 9338521
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to pacing on-demand linear advertisement entries to appear as being live entries, to generating a sequential segment map from a parallel playlist and to consolidating linear ad and main content portions into a single linear chunklist. In one embodiment, a computer system receives video content updates for a portion of live video programming, and generates a parallel playlist with parallel playlist entries that identify a presentation that is to be played. The computer system then generates a sequential segment map from the parallel playlist that identifies which parallel playlist entry is to be played, monitors a live position for new media, determines that an on-demand linear advertisement is to be played at the live position, and appends on-demand linear advertisement chunks to a chunklist to replace the main content chunks and play the on-demand linear advertisement entries in a pseudo-live format as if they were live.
