The embodiments disclose a method including capturing video footage of a youth sports event using at least one video camera with a mobile application installed, transmitting to at least one network server with internet and WI-FI connectivity mobile application multi-camera live-streaming video camera captured game footage, recording on at least one database coupled to the network server at least one video camera mobile application multi-camera live-streaming video camera captured game footage, using at least one network computer coupled to at least one network server configured for processing and displaying multi-camera live-streaming video camera captured game footage for live video streaming game broadcast on a plurality of subscribed viewer digital devices, and mixing advertising into the processed multi-camera live-streaming video camera captured game footage broadcast using the at least one network computer.

Customized highlight shows for sporting events, entertainment events, and/or the like, having a narrative component, are generated and presented. The events can be sporting events, entertainment events, and/or the like. For example, in the context of sporting events, a determination is made as to what types of sports, teams, leagues, players, plays, and/or the like are of interest to the user. A customized highlight show is then generated and presented, containing those specific portions of the sporting events that are likely to be of interest, arranged in a manner that is likely to be entertaining and interesting to the user and that presents a cohesive narrative.

Systems and methods are provided herein for providing recommendations to a user. A short-media viewing profile may be maintained for the user. The short-media viewing profile may be based on user's behavior while watching short-length media content. A long-media viewing profile may be maintained for the user. The long-media viewing profile may be based on user's behavior while watching long-length media content. In response to determining that the user is currently engaged in viewing short-length media content, a recommendation is provided to the user based on the short-media viewing profile. In response to determining that the user is currently engaged in viewing long-length media content, a recommendation is provided to the user based on the long-media viewing profile.

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing non-intrusive advertising content to users. The method includes receiving user input reflecting user content preferences for receiving desired content related to specific topics in lieu of standard advertising slots while watching playable media content via a set-top box. The method may further include receiving a request for playable media content and then retrieving desired content based on user content preferences. Thereafter, the method may include choosing non-intrusive advertising content and generating datagrams that include the desired content and the non-intrusive advertising content. The datagrams may be concatenated with the playable media content to generate displayable content. The display content may then be provided for displaying.

Various embodiments describe methods, systems, and devices for reducing the duplication of live media content stored by a computing device for later deployment as a time-shifted playback. A content request for a time-shifted playback of live media content may be received from a client computing device. A record of the content request may be created, wherein the record includes completion data for object files corresponding to segments of the live media content stored separately from the record. The completion data, unique to the content request, may enable playback of the time-shifted playback. The time-shifted playback may be compiled from the object files received from an object store and the completion data. The compiled time-shifted playback is unique to the content request as compared to compilations for other content requests. Access for the client computing device may be enabled to an assigned private path.
