Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for presenting enhanced previously recorded broadcasted or streamed content are provided. Example embodiments provide an Enhanced Content Display System 'ECDS,' which supports the management and presentation of prerecorded program content in a non-linear fashion. In one embodiment, the ECDS includes an Intelligent Media Data Server that generates enhanced meta-data that are associated with portions of the delivered content. In several example applications, portions of prerecorded broadcasted or streamed content are augmented with auxiliary content and related using enhanced meta-data. Using the generated enhanced meta-data and auxiliary recorded content, applications, such as a Personals Browser or a TV show browser, present prerecorded content augmented with related content segments that enrich the viewer experience. This abstract is provided to comply with rules requiring an abstract, and it is submitted with the intention that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
