The described implementations facilitate the discovery and presentation of video advertisements in a non-intrusive manner by users of client devices. In one implementation, an informed opt-in preview representative of a video advertisement is generated. The informed opt-in preview is a short video presentation that is formed from frames extracted from the video advertisement that can be presented on a client device to provide a user with an overview of the video advertisement corresponding to that informed opt-in preview. For example, the video advertisement may be a two-minute video advertisement. In comparison, the informed opt-in preview may be as little as three—five seconds in length and simply provide an overview of the video advertisement.

Systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products are described below for rendering a graphical user interface by selectively compositing display contents. In general for each of one or more content producers, where each content producer is associated with content storage containing display content, display content for output is identified depending on the content consumer to which the graphical user interface is being rendered.

A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a scroll speed of information displayed on a display unit can be adjusted. The present invention includes a touchscreen configured to display information, and a controller configured to control the information to be scrolled on the touchscreen at a first speed in response to a user input for scrolling the information, if a scroll of the information starts, control the first speed to be decelerated at a predetermined rate, and if a user interested information in the information is displayed as the information is scrolled, control the information to start to be scrolled at a second speed.

A system for visualizing data includes storage means, and a video source arranged for dividing first data to be visualized in one or more banner areas in a plurality of chunks and arranged for outputting the plurality of chunks of the first data to be displayed and for outputting second data to be visualized as a background. A display for visualizing the first and second data is adapted for having information scrolling in the banner areas of the display. A scroll engine is arranged for receiving the first and second data from the video source, and for grabbing chunks of the first data of the plurality of chunks and for storing the grabbed chunks in the storage means. The scroll engine comprises multiplexing means for multiplexing the second data with stored chunks of the first data, and is arranged for forwarding the multiplexed first and second data to the display.

A technique for controlling a touch screen device to select an element from a first list using a second list of numbers assigned to each element in the first list. When displayed next to each other, the first and second lists have different respective spacings between their elements. The spacing used in the second list is scaled so all the numbers therein can fit on the display. In operation, the display is touched at an initial touch point. Dragging the finger up the display will pull up the second list at the touch point, while simultaneously pulling up the first list next to it. However, since the spacing is different for each list, the first list can scroll faster and farther than the second list. The entire second list can fit on the display, but the first list scrolls beyond the display limits. The element corresponding to the number under the touch point is highlighted. Thereafter, releasing the touch point in the first list will select the highlighted element in the second list, which is actually elsewhere on the display from the touch point.
