Abstract: Methods and systems are provided that can include iconization and later play of video content items, such as advertisements. During presentation of an online video, video advertisements may be presented. Upon user selection, during or after presentation of a particular video advertisement, the advertisement may cease to be presented, but an icon may be displayed that represents the video advertisement. The icon may be displayed in an area adjacent to the online video display area, which area may include multiple icons. Later, upon user selection of the icon, the video advertisement may be played, or may continue playing, utilizing local storage of the video advertisement. This, in turn, may provide, for example, efficient, convenient user access to the video advertisement, leading to enhanced advertisement performance with minimal intrusive impact on the user experience as a whole.

Abstract: Techniques are provided which enhance a user's experience by creating non-intrusive advertising schemes enabling the user to pursue targeted advertisements and/or discounts at a convenient time. During presentation of an online video, the user may “park” an advertisement for later viewing, permitting the focus to remain on the online video content and not on the advertisements. The “parked” advertisement is displayed as an icon adjacent to or minimally overlapping the video. Once the user selects the icon, the corresponding advertisement is displayed in the browser or the player. If the original video is being displayed when the user selects an icon, the video will pause and resume once the advertisement is displayed to completion or closed by the viewer.

Abstract translation: 提供了通过创建非侵入式广告方案来提高用户体验的技术，使得用户能够在方便的时间追求有针对性的广告和/或折扣。 在呈现在线视频期间，用户可以“停放”广告以供稍后观看，允许焦点保留在在线视频内容而不是在广告上。 “停放”广告显示为与视频相邻或最小程度重叠的图标。 用户选择图标后，相应的广告将显示在浏览器或播放器中。 如果在用户选择图标时显示原始视频，则在广告显示完成或观看者关闭之后，视频将暂停并恢复。
