Abstract: The present invention provides systems and techniques for transmitting a streaming media file. One of the techniques includes sending a metering uniform resource locator (URL) from a first server to a client player over a network, and sending a streaming media file from a second server to the client player over the network. The streaming media file includes at least one embedded metering event. In response to receiving the metering URL and the embedded metering event at the client player, a user meter is ticked.

Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying real time media broadcasts with pages of related information. The systems and methods allow a user to interact with related online information while simultaneously viewing a video presentation or listening to an audio presentation. A client application executing on a client system processes a streaming data signal and displays an associated real time media presentation, live or archived, on one portion of a display. Reference data pushed to the client application in the streaming data signal identifies pages of related information. The client application retrieves the pages, e.g., via HTTP requests, and displays the pages in a data frame on a second portion of the display. The pages can be created in advance of the media presentation, and when retrieved and displayed, include current information related to the subject matter of the media presentation. Information included in the pages can include links to other related information. Upon selection of a link by a user, the link is passed to an active browser window displayed on a third portion of the display. The user may interact with information in the browser window and data frame while simultaneously viewing the real time media presentation.

Abstract translation: 用相关信息页面显示实时媒体广播的系统和方法。 系统和方法允许用户与相关的在线信息交互，同时观看视频呈现或收听音频呈现。 在客户端系统上执行的客户端应用程序处理流数据信号并在显示器的一部分上显示实时或存档的相关实时媒体呈现。 在流数据信号中推送到客户端应用的参考数据标识相关信息的页面。 客户端应用程序例如通过HTTP请求检索页面，并将该页面显示在显示器的第二部分上的数据帧中。 这些页面可以在媒体呈现之前创建，并且当检索和显示时，包括与媒体呈现的主题相关的当前信息。 页面中包含的信息可以包含其他相关信息的链接。 当用户选择链接时，该链接被传递到显示在显示器的第三部分上的活动浏览器窗口。 用户可以在浏览器窗口和数据帧中与信息进行交互，同时观看实时的媒体呈现。
