Provided are devices and methods that enable content distribution of data units generated by dividing a GOP, and GOP reconstruction and reproduction on the reception device side. A transmission device generates a sub GOP media segment as packet-stored data, the sub GOP media segment storing media data including only part of constituent data of a Group of Pictures (GOP) as a processing unit of encoded data and metadata corresponding to the media data, and generates and transmits a packet having an in-GOP location identifier recorded as packet additional information therein, the in-GOP location identifier indicating the in-GOP location of the media data stored in the sub GOP media segment. A reception device arranges media data dispersed and stored in packets by referring to the in-GOP location identifiers stored in received packets, and reconstructs and decodes a GOP.

Content Presentation Analytics and Optimization

Techniques are described herein for optimizing the presentation of content through obtaining viewership metrics, generating multiple renditions of presentations of content, and selecting optimized renditions of content. One aspect includes associating a request for viewership metrics with a presentation of content, publishing the presentation of content, and receiving information of the viewership metrics associated with the presentation. Another aspect includes copying a presentation of a content item, creating a second presentation of the content item for publishing over one or more channels, and linking the presentation of the content item to the second presentation of the content item, such that a change to one propagates to the other of the presentation of the content item or the second presentation of the content item. In yet another aspect, a content rendition may be selected for presentation based on performance of the rendition out of multiple renditions in an auction.

Content Segmentation and Time Reconciliation

Systems, devices and methods are described herein for segmentation of content, and more specifically for segmentation of content in a content management system. In one aspect, a method may include receiving content associated with speech, text, or closed captioning data. The speech, the text, or the closed captioning data may be analyzed to derive at least one of a topic, subject, or event for at least a portion of the content. The content may be divided into two or more content segments based on the analyzing. At least one of the topic, the subject, or the event may be associated with at least one of the two or more content segments based on the analyzing. At least one of the two or more content segments may then be published such that each of the two or more content segments is individually accessible.
