    摘要： Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for adjusting capacity in a networking environment. A networking system comprising clients, servers, load balancers, and/or other devices may expand and contract network capacity as needed. When expanding network capacity, load balancers may instruct client devices to connect to servers that are part of the expanded network. When network capacity is reduced, a server and/or a load balancer my instruct client devices to close a connection with a first server and establish a connection with a second server. Client devices may seamlessly begin using the connection with a second server without having to wait for a connection timeout with the first server.

    摘要： Methods and systems for using text data in content presentation and content search are disclosed. Text data and a plurality of video frames can be extracted from a content program and stored in a database. Extracted text data can be divided into a plurality of text segments. The plurality of text segments and the plurality of video frames can be presented in the form of an electronic book or guide. In addition, the content program can be divided into a plurality of content segments and stored in the database. The plurality of content segments and the plurality of text segments can be associated by time indices. A user can identify one or more content segments in the database by a query, and notifications can be sent according to the query.

    摘要： Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for identifying addressable advertisement slots in media/video streams and utilizing the addressable advertisement slots. The identifying and/or the utilizing may be based on metadata associated with the media/video streams and/or viewers/audiences associated with different distributors/operators. The metadata, which may be collected from a content provider or a third-party suppliers, may be provided, via out-of-band signaling, to the different distributors/operators. The different distributors/operators may use information in the metadata to use identified addressable advertisement slots (e.g., by inserting different advertisements specifically targeted to those viewers/audiences associated with a particular distributor) and potentially generate a higher cost per thousand impressions (CPMs).

    摘要： Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for fault tolerant network storage and delivery of recorded content. Two or more network digital video recorders may each receive a plurality of requests to record, archive, and/or play back content items, such as television programs. Each network digital video recorder may receive capacity reports of statistics such as storage and/or bandwidth from one or more other network digital video recorders. At least one of the network digital video recorders may determine whether, based on a network capacity, to record, archive, and/or playback content items. The methods, systems, and apparatuses may accommodate equipment failures that lead to partitions between network digital video recorders.
