Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for resuming a media object presented on a device following a data loss event that interrupts the presentation of the media object, wherein streaming services are used to deliver the media object are provided. A physical disconnection that occurs at a point during the presentation of the media object is recognized. The physical disconnection is recognized based on an identification that media data has not been received by the device within a predetermined time period. Upon recognition of the physical disconnection, the presentation of the media object is automatically paused. After detecting reestablishment of a physical connection, the media object is resumed as though no interruption occurred. A resume request is communicated to a streaming control agent to provide an indication that the streaming control agent should continue delivering media data to the device.
