Abstract

A method and system for adjustment of replacement content duration in content modification operations. An example method includes determining a duration of a modifiable content segment in a media sequence being received by a content-presentation device. The example method then includes selecting a supplemental content segment based on the selected supplemental content segment having a duration within a predefined threshold range of the determined duration of the modifiable content segment. The example method further includes altering the duration of the selected supplemental content segment to be the same as the duration of the modifiable content segment. And, the example method includes causing the altered supplemental content segment to be transmitted to the content-presentation device to facilitate dynamic replacement of the modifiable content segment with the altered supplemental content segment.
