A computer implemented method for processing tasks is disclosed. The method includes invoking a timed iterator, during an event loop pass, without spawning a new thread, wherein the invoking includes passing a task list and a timeout constraint to the timed iterator. The method further includes executing one or more tasks in the task list for a period of time as specified in the timeout constraint, and relinquishing program control to a caller after the period of time.

A system and method for submission of digital assets to a digital asset submission system are disclosed. The digital asset submission system can manage submissions of digital assets to a network-based distribution system. Submission of digital assets to the digital asset submission system can be performed over a network in a controlled manner such that the digital assets can be validated prior to transmission of the digital assets to the digital asset submission system. Advantageously, digital assets to be submitted for distribution can be substantially validated before the digital assets are transmitted to the digital asset submission system.

Media bundles that can be submitted, distributed and utilized to facilitate media presentations at client devices. Each media presentation is typically associated with a digital media asset. The media bundles can include or identify various digital media assets for use in the media presentations and can provide computer instructions for controlling the media presentations. The resulting media presentations can provide multimedia experiences for users of client devices.
