Abstract

A hardware media content packaging and distribution system that handles distribution of one or more channels to be viewed on one or more of a plurality of consumer devices, receives a media feed and a first programming schedule of a first channel of the one or more channels from a source device. Instructions are received from a programming service and/or a user-preference is received from a first consumer device of the plurality of consumer devices on which the first channel is viewed. Based on content context analysis, one or more other live feeds of other channels of the one or more channels or pre-encoded media assets, are analyzed. Based on the content context analysis, a media item is recommended to be inserted in the media feed of the first channel, based on the received user-preference. The recommended media item is dynamically scheduled in the media feed of the first channel to be delivered over a distribution system to be viewed on the first consumer device based on the content context analysis.
