A URL personalization system allowing a television service provider to dynamically associate multiple URLs with the video content item being viewed by the customer is provided. The associated URLs point to additional content that may be of interest to different customer demographics. A generic URL linking to the associated URLs may be inserted into the video content item. The system may personalize the generic URL by replacing or modifying the generic URL with a personalized URL based on information specific to the customer viewing the content before streaming the content or when additional content is requested. The customer is redirected to the personalized URL to obtain the additional content. This allows the television service provider to send a single video content item to all customers or large groups of customers while providing individual customers with an enhanced interactive television viewing experience.

Methods and systems for prediction audience ratings are disclosed. A database of television (TV) viewing data may include program records for a multiplicity of existing TV programs. A system may receive a training plurality of program records from the TV viewing data, and for each program record a most similar TV program based on content characteristics may be identified. A synthetic program record may be constructed by merging features of each record and its most similar record. Audience performance metrics may be omitted from synthetic records. An aggregate of the training plurality of program records and the synthetic program records may be used to train a machine-learning (ML) model to predict audience performance metrics of the new or hypothetical TV programs not yet available for viewing and / or not yet transmitted or streamed.

Systems and methods are provided for presenting secondary content. Particularly, the secondary content may be presented on a first device (such as a smartphone, for example) and may be based on primary content that is being presented to the user via a second device. For example, if a product is shown during a television show being presented to the user via a television, and the user desires to view additional information about the product, the user may interact with a smartphone application. Based on the interaction, the first device may being processing audio produced by the television. Embedded within the primary content may be a number of “tones” that include frequencies that are inaudible to humans. The first device may detect a tone and the tone may be decoded to obtain a timestamp associated with the primary content. This timestamp may then be used to determine which secondary content associated with that timestamp to present to the user on the first device.

An example method includes determining, for each of multiple digital media providers, respective estimated distributions of a characteristic for a television viewing area. The method also includes determining respective reach values based on a universe estimate for the television viewing area. In addition, the method includes determining a distribution of subscribers across overlapping combinations of the digital media providers. The method also includes determining, for each of the multiple digital media providers based on the distribution of subscribers, respective mixed provider fractions relative to a total provider fraction for the digital media provider. The method further includes determining, using a constrained optimization routine, target distributions of the characteristic for combinations of the digital media providers. And the method includes using the target distributions as a basis for assigning values of the characteristic to households that are subscribes of the digital media providers and located in the television viewing area.

To provide navigation control device and method that prevent errors that may occur when using a function to remove restrictions on the television viewing function of an in-vehicle display device.SOLUTION: A navigation control device 30 is electrically connected between vehicle's position information antenna 37, 70 and an in-vehicle display device 20 having a television viewing function and a navigation display function, and has the function of lifting restrictions on the television viewing function while the vehicle is traveling. The navigation control device 30 is equipped with a position detection inhibiting device 39 that can inhibit the in-vehicle display device from acquiring a normal antenna signal from the vehicle's position information antenna, and a switching device 36 that switches the operation of the position detection inhibiting device.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

The present application discloses a linkage control method and system for TV viewing ambient light strips, relating to the technical field of light strip control. The method includes: installing a controller above a TV set and acquiring color data; establishing an initial color control method to control the color of the light strip; acquiring linkage analysis light strips and obtaining common points; controlling the color of the light strip via the controller when the TV set is started, based on the common points and the initial color control method. The present application solves the problems of existing methods for linkage control of TV viewing ambient light strips: inability to perform real-time control of the light strip's light based on TV images during viewing, resulting in the light strip's light not matching the viewing content, causing a sense of disconnection in the user's visual experience and reduced viewing immersion.

The invention discloses a television film watching atmosphere lamp strip linkage control method and system, and relates to the technical field of lamp strip control, and the method comprises the steps: installing a controller above a television, and obtaining color data; an initial face control method is established, and the color of the lamp strip is controlled; linkage analysis lamp strips are obtained, and habitual points are obtained; based on the habitual point and the initial color control method, the color of the lamp strip is controlled by the controller when the television is started; the method is used for solving the problems that in an existing television film watching atmosphere lamp strip linkage control method, light of a lamp strip cannot be controlled in real time based on images in a television when a user watches a film, so that a light source emitted by the lamp strip cannot be matched with film watching content, a picture watched by the user has a split feeling, and the user experience is poor. And the film watching immersion when the user uses the lamp strip is influenced.
