Systems and methods for dynamically weighting media segments and paths in a structured media presentation are disclosed. The structured media presentation can be, for example, a video tree representing a branching video presentation and defining multiple branches, each defining a path of one or more video content segments. Different portions of the video tree are associated with weights, and during playback of the branching video presentation, a video content segment is automatically selected for presentation based on one or more of the associated weights.

Systems and methods for dynamic weighting of branched video paths

In viewing a media presentation having multiple streams or tracks running in parallel and synchronized to a common playback timeline, a user experiencing one of the streams will miss interesting events and other content occurring in other streams. Accordingly, upon receiving an instruction to switch from a first stream to a second stream, a summary of the second stream is dynamically generated based on content that the user missed while watching the first stream. The summary is presented to the user prior to transitioning to presentation of the second stream.
