The disclosed computer-implemented methods and systems trigger actions by a client media player in response to determining that a live event has occurred during a live media broadcast.

In one or more implementations, the disclosed methods and systems communicate these tailored instructions via the same dedicated communication channel that carries media content requests and responses. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
