Techniques described herein provide for a live advertising processing engine service to act as an intermediary between client applications and advertising networks. The live advertising processing engine service can provide an interface with which the client can interact, via an application programming interface (API) or directly through the use of a standardized language, thereby allowing client applications to receive advertisement data without the need to be customized to communicate with specific advertising networks. The live advertising processing engine service can further track where, in playback the live content, a client currently is, to indicate to the client—or other application—when advertisement breaks are and/or provide supplemental advertisement information to enable the client to provide a rich user experience.

Timestamps for streams of media that transition from one media source to another (such as from live content to on-demand content, and vice versa) can be rewritten by a server to help ensure error-free streaming by the client. Embodiments can coordinate the creation of a client manifest with the dynamic creation of a requested segment of media (i.e., 'chunk') to determine how to rewrite timestamps of requested chunks such that they are continuous through the transition.

Methods and systems are disclosed for providing live media streaming over a communication network. Timing data of a received live media stream is mapped to time values from a system clock. The time values are used for transmission of the media stream.

Clock locking for live media streaming

Methods and systems are disclosed for providing live media streaming over a communication network. Timing data of a received live media stream is mapped to time values from a system clock. Offset time values are assigned to a plurality of clients requesting live media content. The time values and the offset time values are used for transmission of the media stream.
