Abstract: Techniques for dynamically and seamlessly inserting secondary content via a second video pipeline into the playing of principal content over a first video pipeline are disclosed herein. One aspect of the techniques may involve the file containing the principal content be contiguous instead of being in a plurality of separate sections. The secondary content is able to be pre-processed on the second video pipeline while the principal content is played over the first video pipeline. This enables the secondary content to be available instantaneously upon the pausing of the principal content at various designated points therein. Playing of the principal content may likewise be instantaneous upon completion of the time period for the specified pausing thereof. Since the file containing the principal content is preferably contiguous, rewinding the principal content to a previous point does not require reloading.

Abstract: A method that enables multiple spam detection solutions to be deployed in a manageable and rational manner to determine if a message is spam is presented. A framework invokes one or more anti-spam filters to analyze the message and return a confidence level of whether a message is spam and that confidence level is added to a summary of confidence levels. The framework evaluates a summary of confidence levels against a set of defined thresholds. If the summary of confidence levels is greater than the highest threshold set by the administrator, the action specified for the highest threshold is taken. Otherwise, subsequent filters are used to evaluate the message until either the maximum threshold is exceeded or all filters have evaluated the message. After all filters have evaluated the message, the summary of confidence levels is compared against all thresholds and the action associated with that matching threshold is taken.
