Systems and methods for summarizing captions, configuring playback speed, and rewriting the caption file for a media asset are disclosed. The system determines whether to display the original captions or a summarized version of the captions, which are based on user's language proficiency level, reading pace, and historical data, and can be generated either on-demand or automatically when rewinds and pauses are detected. The caption file which includes the original captions can be rewritten. The system determines whether to stream a caption or a rewritten file to a media device based on user or system selections. In the absence of a caption file, or when the caption file cannot be summarized, the playback speed of the media asset is slowed down to provide additional reading time to the user.

Disclosed is a bullet screen information processing method and system, and computer storage medium. User information is acquired; when output of video data is detected, friendship chain data are acquired based on the user information, the friendship chain data including other user information associated with the user information; input information for the video data is filtered based on the friendship chain data to obtain first input information associated with the other user information from a friendship chain; and the first input information and the video data are controlled to be output.

Methods, systems, and media for presenting notifications indicating recommended content are provided. In some implementations, a method for presenting notifications of recommended content is provided, the method comprising: receiving an indication that a user device has initiated a casting session with at least one display device, wherein the indication includes an identifier of media content presented on the at least one display device during the casting session; storing the indication in a log in association with an identifier of the user device; receiving, from the user device, a request for recommended content to be presented on the at least one display device associated with the user device; in response to receiving the request, identifying a group of media content items based on at least one media content item that has been previously selected by a user account associated with the user device and based on an identifier of the at least one display device; generating a notification that includes an indication of the identified group of media content items and a selectable input that, when selected, causes the identified group of media content items to begin being presented on the at least one display device; and transmitting the notification to the user device, wherein transmitting the notification to the user device causes the notification to be presented on the user device.

A client electronic device to provide custom functionality for video content playback. The client electronic device includes one or more processors and a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored therein instructions, which when executed by the one or more processors, causes the client electronic device to receive a streaming manifest file and a first auxiliary manifest file, where the streaming manifest file includes references to video segments of a video content, where the first auxiliary manifest file includes timed metadata associated with the video content, where the streaming manifest file and the first auxiliary manifest file refer to a same timeline, provide the streaming manifest file to a core playback module to play the video content according to the streaming manifest file, and provide custom functionality using the timed metadata included in the first auxiliary manifest file that replaces or augments functionality provided by the core playback module.

A system and method for facilitating communication between an assisted user (AU) and a hearing user (HU) includes receiving an HU voice signal as the AU and HU participate in a call using AU and HU communication devices, transcribing HU voice signal segments into verbatim caption segments, processing each verbatim caption segment to identify an intended communication (IC) intended by the HU upon uttering an associated one of the HU voice signal segments, for at least a portion of the HU voice signal segments (i) using an associated IC to generate an enhanced caption different than the associated verbatim caption, (ii) for each of a first subset of the HU voice signal segments, presenting the verbatim captions via the AU communication device display for consumption, and (iii) for each of a second subset of the HU voice signal segments, presenting enhanced captions via the AU communication device display for consumption.

A method, set-top box, and non-transitory computer readable medium are disclosed for presentation of audiovisual content with closed captions. The method includes receiving, via an input device interfaced with the electronic device, an instruction requesting a replay of previously viewed video content with closed captioning; sending, to the display device interfaced with the electronic device, one or more thumbnail images of the previously viewed video content to be displayed on the display device; receiving, via the input device interfaced with the electronic device, one of the one or more thumbnail images of the previously viewed video content being selected for replay of the previously viewed video content; and sending, to the display device interfaced with the electronic device, closed captioning with the previously viewed video content starting at a video frame corresponding to the one of the one or more thumbnails of the previously viewed video content selected for replay.

Some implementations include methods for detecting missing subtitles associated with a media presentation and may include receiving an audio component and a subtitle component associated with a media presentation, the audio component including an audio sequence, the audio sequence divided into a plurality of audio segments; evaluating the plurality of audio segments using a combination of a recurrent neural network and a convolutional neural network to identify refined speech segments associated with the audio sequence, the recurrent neural network trained based on a plurality of languages, the convolutional neural network trained based on a plurality of categories of sound; determining timestamps associated with the identified refined speech segments; and determining missing subtitles based on the timestamps associated with the identified refined speech segments and timestamps associated with subtitles included in the subtitle component.

The present disclosure describes techniques of processing bullet comments. The techniques comprise acquiring a page of playing a video to output a video stream; acquiring multiple pieces of bullet comment data associated with the video stream; traversing the multiple pieces of bullet comment data and determining whether the multiple pieces of bullet comment data comprise at least one piece of bullet comment data in an expired state; and deleting the at least one piece of bullet comment data in the expired state from the plurality of pieces of bullet comment data in response to determining that the plurality of pieces of bullet comment data comprise the at least one piece of bullet comment data in the expired state.

The present disclosure describes techniques of presenting bullet comments. The techniques comprise acquiring a page of playing a video; acquiring multiple pieces of original bullet screen data, wherein each piece of original bullet screen data comprises content of a bullet comment and timing information indicating a time of posting the bullet comment in the video; cloning the multiple pieces of original bullet screen data to obtain multiple pieces of bullet screen data corresponding to the plurality of pieces of original bullet comment data; acquiring multiple pieces of target bullet screen data from the multiple pieces of bullet screen data based on the timing information associated with each piece of original bullet comment data; and content comprised in at least one of the plurality of pieces of target bullet comment data in an area of the page configured to display bullet comments.
