Abstract

From a live streaming of a main content, an already streamed portion of the main content is analyzed to identify an occurrence of a climactic event in the main content. Based on the analysis, a set is constructed of feature values that are representative of the climactic event in the already streamed portion of the main content. A non-climactic period is forecasted during which a likelihood of an occurrence of any climactic event is below a threshold likelihood. A secondary content is inserted in the live streaming of the main content during the non-climactic period, such that a likelihood of the secondary content insertion interrupting the live streaming during a second climactic event is less than a second threshold of likelihood. The live streaming of the main content is continued after the secondary content is completely transmitted in the live streaming.
