Abstract: A system and method are described for combining multiple views of a video game or application into a single video stream (or set of video streams). For example, a system according to one embodiment comprises: a plurality of application/video game instances executed for a particular multi-player video game or application on a hosting service, the application/video game instances being executed in response to control signals received from a plurality of clients; compositing logic executed at the hosting service to combine video streams generated by each of the application/video game instances into a single video stream for a first one of the clients; and compression logic to compress the single video stream with low latency such that the user of the first one of the clients has the perception that the video game or application is being executed locally.

Abstract: A server system reproduces a past gameplay based on original data in a virtual three-dimensional space and displays the scenes of the gameplay on a user terminal of a live commentary user. Along with this, the server system causes a live commentary object having not existed in the original gameplay to appear in the virtual three-dimensional space in accordance with a live commentary addition operation by the live commentary user, and adds an additional virtual camera (additional camera CM1) to the virtual three-dimensional space to modify the reproduction play of the original gameplay. The server system generates modified reproduction data capable of reproducing a modified reproduction play and manages the modified reproduction data in association with the original data.

Abstract: A message push method includes playing a first video in a play interface of a terminal according to first video data transmitted by a server. The method further includes displaying, by processing circuitry of the terminal, a scenario interaction interface at a preset playback time of the first video, the scenario interaction interface being set according to display content of an electronic device shown in the first video. Next, the method includes obtaining interaction information input based on the displayed scenario interaction interface, and obtaining a target message related to the obtained interaction information. Finally, the method includes outputting the obtained target message by the processing circuitry of the terminal.

Abstract: There is provided a computerized method for establishing a communication session with at least one contact based on a cross display gesture, comprising: displaying an array of contacts at a first location on a display of an interactive user interface on a screen of a client terminal; displaying an array of applications at a second location on the display of the interactive user interface, the first and second locations being located on opposite sides of the screen separated by an interactive region of the interactive user interface; identifying a cross display gesture manually performed by the user, the cross display gesture connecting a certain contact of the array of contacts with a certain application of the array of applications while crossing some of the interactive region; and establishing a communication session between the user and the certain contact activated by the certain application.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to enabling access to a game instance through a social network system. A client-side player component facilitates communication between a game instance on the client device and a backend server of a social networking system. The communication information can be stored in or retrieved from a social graph of the social networking system. The game instance can be initialized from a social platform of the social networking system, and the game can be played without leaving a social network application.

Abstract: Provided is a server device that is capable of making it easy to attach comments to videos while reflecting the individuality of various users. A center server, when a user terminal is connected, delivers video data according to a request by the user terminal. The center server also specifies a stamp selected by each user among a plurality of stamps that have been prepared in advance, and, on the basis of symbol data for managing symbols that are separately set for users in order to visually identify each user, specifies the symbol of the user who has selected the stamp. The center server, when a request is made for delivery the video data, provides the user terminal with information about the stamp and the symbol so that a comment icon in which the selected stamp and the symbol of the user are combined is attached to the video.
