Providing enhanced content
Methods, systems, computer readable media, and apparatuses for providing enhanced content are presented. Data including a first program, a first caption stream associated with the first program, and a second caption stream associated with the first program may be received. The second caption stream may be extracted from the data, and a second program may be encoded with the second caption stream. The first program may be transmitted with the first caption stream including first captions and may include first content configured to be played back at a first speed. In response to receiving an instruction to change play back speed, the second program may be transmitted with the second caption stream. The second program may include the first content configured to be played back at a second speed different from the first speed, and the second caption stream may include second captions different from the first captions.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, from a media device, a command to begin playback of a first content item;
identifying, based on the first content item, a second content item;
generating a recommendation of the second content item;
encoding the recommendation in an enhanced caption stream associated with the first content item; and
transmitting, to the media device, the first content item and the enhanced caption stream.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining that a plurality of additional content items is available;
identifying, based on an attribute of the first content item, a third content item of the plurality of additional content items;
generating a second recommendation of the third content item; and
updating the enhanced caption stream with the second recommendation.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying, based on the first content item, a second content item further comprises:
accessing user preferences; and
comparing the first content item with the user preferences.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying, based on the first content item, a second content item further comprises:
accessing user viewing history; and
comparing the first content item with the user viewing history.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enhanced caption stream is configured to be output while the first content item is played back at a normal speed.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enhanced caption stream is configured to be output while the first content item is played back at a speed other than a normal speed.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enhanced caption stream is output in response to a user command.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media device serves as a gateway, a set-top box, or a digital video recorder.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the media device, a command to output a subset of frames among the plurality of frames of the content; and
based on the command, sending, to the computing device, second caption data configured to be output while the subset of frames is output.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
determining, based on whether the command comprises a rewind request or a fast-forward request, the second caption data,
wherein the second caption data differs depending on whether the command comprises the rewind request or the fast-forward request.
11. A system comprising:
input/output circuitry; and
control circuitry configured to:
receive, from a media device, using the input/output circuitry, a command to begin playback of a first content item;
identify, based on the first content item, a second content item;
generate a recommendation of the second content item;
encode the recommendation in an enhanced caption stream associated with the first content item; and
transmit, to the media device, the first content item and the enhanced caption stream.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
determine that a plurality of additional content items is available;
identify, based on an attribute of the first content item, a third content item of the plurality of additional content items;
generate a second recommendation of the third content item; and
update the enhanced caption stream with the second recommendation.
13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to identify, based on the first content item, a second content item is further configured to:
access user preferences; and
compare the first content item with the user preferences.
14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry configured to identify, based on the first content item, a second content item is further configured to:
access user viewing history; and
compare the first content item with the user viewing history.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the enhanced caption stream is configured to be output while the first content item is played back at a normal speed.
16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the enhanced caption stream is configured to be output while the first content item is played back at a speed other than a normal speed.
17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the enhanced caption stream is output in response to a user command.
18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the media device serves as a gateway, a set-top box, or a digital video recorder.
19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
receive, from the media device, a command to output a subset of frames among the plurality of frames of the content; and
based on the command, send, to the computing device, second caption data configured to be output while the subset of frames is output.
20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
determine, based on whether the command comprises a rewind request or a fast-forward request, the second caption data,
wherein the second caption data differs depending on whether the command comprises the rewind request or the fast-forward request.
