Real-time video manipulation techniques include performing shader-based graphical operations on user interface elements based on the state of an interactive video and the properties associated with the user interface elements at the state. The user interface elements are rendered into frames of the interactive video, and transparent interactive elements are layered over the user interface elements. In another technique, video frames in an interactive video include viewable and non-viewable regions. While the video is playing, the viewable regions are modified based on information in the non-viewable regions, thereby generating modified versions of the video frames.

Shader-based dynamic video manipulation

Described herein are systems and methods for dynamically adjusting an aspect ratio of a video. Exemplary methods can include receiving (i) a video having an original aspect ratio and at least one user interface (UI) element configured to be selected by a user of the video and (ii) an aspect ratio of a display screen for presenting the video. The methods can include automatically determining a display area of the video to be presented based on (i) the default position of the at least one UI element in the video, (ii) an active area in the video, and/or (iii) a central area in the video, the display area having an aspect ratio equal to the aspect ratio of the display screen; and presenting the video display area in the display screen with the at least one UI element for at least the portion of the video.

Systems and methods for dynamically adjusting video aspect ratios

Media streams or files, such as audio and video streams, within a media presentation are synchronized by dynamically adjusting the playback rate of one or more of the streams relative to a reference (clock) stream. In one implementation, a video presentation including a plurality of media streams is received, with each media stream having a respective playback rate. One of the media streams is selected as a clock stream. The media streams are simultaneously played according to their respective playback rates, and a second media stream is synchronized with the clock stream.

Media stream rate synchronization

Methods and systems for seeking to a non-key frame in a compressed video. The compressed video has a plurality of frames, each with a playback timestamp. At least one of the frames is a key frame. A selection of a non-key frame is received, and a temporally proximate key frame is identified. The set of frames between the identified key frame and the selected frame is played in a reduced time interval, and the selected frame is displayed as if it were a key frame.
