Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods for providing alternative content in audio-video streams are disclosed. A manifest data structure including data reflective of a plurality of content segments is generated. At least one alternative content indicator, each indicating one of said plurality of content segments as being an alternative content segment is obtained. The manifest data structure is modified to remove data reflective of those of said plurality of content segments that are not indicated by said one of said alternative content indicators as being an alternative content segment. Upon receiving a request from a client device to view alternative content, the modified manifest data structure is sent to the client device.
