Abstract: There are instances of a content item having synchronization information, one being an instance of a reference content item, another being a candidate content item. A synchronizing processor determines a synchronization point between the reference content item and the candidate content item, on the basis of matching the synchronization information of the reference content item and the candidate content item. A timeline metadata transmitter transmits stored timeline metadata to a device on which the reference content item is playing, the transmission of the stored timeline metadata beginning from the synchronization point. The stored timeline metadata includes timeline metadata that has been previously aggregated from earlier broadcasts of instances of the reference content item. Related systems, apparatus, and methods are also described.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for selecting video channels is implemented on a computing device and includes: presenting at least one set of detected facial images, detecting user selection of a selected set of detected facial images, where each of the at least one set is associated with one of the video channels; and sending a video channel switching command to a video channel playing device, where the video channel switching command indicates a switch to the video channel associated with the selected set of detected facial images.
