Abstract
A method, device, and system for prioritizing insertion of targeted advertisements within advertisement time slots of a video program are provided. CPE detects whether or not an electronic personal device of a viewer of the video program is within a pre-defined viewing range of a display of the video program while the video program is being played and thereafter determines whether or not a detected electronic personal device remains within the viewing range during an advertisement time slot within the video program during the playing of a targeted advertisement. The CPE is configured to increase a priority of insertion of a previously played targeted advertisement within a next or subsequent advertisement time slot within the video program if the electronic personal device of the viewer is determined not to remain within the viewing range during the previous playing of the targeted advertisement.
