Participants share live (SL) content in real-time by sharing socially-targeted user-selected/generated content while simultaneously consuming content from any integrated content provider. In the context of an exemplary music-based scenario, an inviting user, while listening to music from any integrated music provider, may initiate a SLsession such that concurrent data streams are maintained and media playback information is managed separately from media content playback channels. Information about playback events is continuously transmitted via facilitated sockets. Participant consumers may consume shared content (LL) by tapping a proprietary resolution method to identify and properly source the media content the broadcaster is sharing. Independent social broadcast streams may also be overlaid atop the direct playback of media content from a preferred provider as governed by the proprietary resolution method. An event-handling micro-service maintains and combines the broadcaster's content playback actions and social content, which are synchronized on multiple participant devices.

System, method, and application for exchanging content in a social network environment

Blockchain-enabled crypto asset systems and a Digital Social Recorder system are operable within a computer network environment for allowing a user to control how advertisers access the user's personal data; allowing crypto asset compensation in exchange for social amplification; and tracking asset allocation. Payments made via blockchain tracking, and the distribution of any revenues derived from cost savings provided to terrestrial, satellite or digital radio broadcasters back to music rights holders and other related groups are provided. These rights holders typically like to incentivize consumers, and by using the crypto assets or tokens created by the present invention, a reward for listening/consuming may be provided. Further, payments for industry services to the rights holder are contemplated to include, but not be limited to any Performance Rights Organizations (PROs), Record Labels, Publishing Companies/Administrators, Managers, Agents or any fractional rights holders or owners who would hold claim against any such revenues.

Blockchain-enabled crypto asset systems allow a user to control how advertisers access the user's personal data; allow crypto asset compensation in exchange for social amplification; and track asset allocation. Asset allocation tracking is made the focus of these specifications. Payments made via blockchain tracking, and the distribution of any revenues derived from cost savings provided to terrestrial, satellite or digital radio broadcasters back to music rights holders and other related groups are provided. These rights holders typically like to incentivize consumers, and by using the crypto assets or tokens created by the present invention, a reward for listening/consuming may be provided.

A system and method are operable within a computer network environment for compiling videos into a compilation, where each video is programmatically inserted into the compilation, and the resulting video compilation plays alongside an audio track preferably sourced using a unique identifier for the audio track. The system includes a solution stack comprising a remote service system and at least one client, which may be operable to generate at least one video to be associated with an audio track section, with such section determined by select start/end times, programmatically identified, or programmatically associated based on selected metadata. The system then operates to compile at least one user-generated video into an audiovisual set which may be presented as a social post, and further into a video compilation which may include additional filler content, to play alongside a section or the entirety of an audio track.

A data handling or patching system operates to reduce redundant data within a data storage. Data files are compared, and a data difference is output. In files that have very similar data, the data difference between values is relatively small, and thus when a basic data file and a data difference file are stored, data redundancy is significantly reduced. The data difference of 'diff' file can then be used to losslessly reproduce the data of either of the compared files. A first or primary port is dedicated for base quality transmissions on which the broadcasting client sends the lowest available quality. Additional or secondary ports enable transmission of higher than base quality data, sent as 'diff's' of the base quality. The receiving client combines the &#x201c;diff&#x201d; data on the secondary ports with the base data of the first port, to produce higher quality media.

System for enhancing data transmission in a network environment

A stateless queue system implements and supports a virtual room containing a content playback queue. The system allows multiple clients to listen to queued content in a synchronized manner and to modify the same queue without requiring a broadcasting client to send playback events. The system includes a multiplicity of computing clients that can add content items to the queue by interacting with an application service. The clients are enabled to add content to the queue in a number of ways, including by simple add-on to the bottom of the queue, by vote, or by direct modification of the queue structure. Upon client entrance into the playback session, data is provided to the client that represent the queue order at the time of request, the number of votes each items contains if structure is determined by vote, the start time for each queued item, and the current playing item.

Stateless queue system for synchronized client consumption of queued content

A system and method are operable within a computer network environment for compiling a singular video file from user-generated video file fragments for playback in tandem with a context-providing audio file. The system includes at least one client operable to generate at least one video file fragment in tandem with audio file content simultaneously consumable via each client. Each video file fragment is generated at or between a select start time and at a select end time during playback of a select audio file content segment, the parent audio file of which segment has a universally unique identifier. A remote service system compiles the video file fragments into a video file fragment compilation for playback progression in tandem with playback of the audio file content based on the select start and end time of the video file fragments as associated with select audio file content segments of the audio file.

Smart routing synchronization systems socialize a synthetic rebroadcast or group stream for enabling members of a user group to (re)broadcast select content to other members of the user group and collaboratively curate content delivery. The systems are based on a content-identification process and further a process for (re)broadcasting content. These processes are cooperable among a group of member clients each of which are in communication with at least two content sources. The synchronization process identifies select content and directs delivery of the content from an optimal resource for each member client via a smart routing protocol. The (re)broadcast process prompts delivery of the select content to members of the user group from a content origination member of the group, and group members are thereby able to simultaneously access the content for the purpose of providing a content-based platform for social interaction.
