DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 illustrates a system 5 for measuring and analyzing a video stream broadcasted for a user, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. System 5 monitors and reports user interactions and analytics associated with a broadcasted video stream (e.g., internet based streaming video). The analytics may be used to automatically determine where advertising may be inserted into a video stream. System 5 may additionally generate a summary (i.e., based on the analytics) video for downloading. A measurement process may comprise inserting timestamp meta-data into a streaming video, discovering the timestamp meta-data by a media player, transmitting (i.e., to a web-analytics server) the discovery of the timestamp meta-data, and analyzing user functions performed with reference to the timestamp meta-data.

System 5 of FIG. 1 comprises devices 8a . . . 8n connected through a network 7 to a computing system 10. Network 7 may comprise any type of network including, inter alia, a local area network, (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), the Internet, etc. Devices 8a . . . 8n may comprise any type of devices capable of broadcasting a video stream, inter alia, a personal computer, a laptop computer, a computer terminal, a cellular telephone, a digital assistant (PDA), a video game system, an audio/video player, etc. Each of devices 8a . . . 8n may comprise a single device or a plurality of devices. Devices 8a . . . 8n are used by end users for receiving and viewing audio/video streaming broadcasts. Computing system 10 may comprise any type of computing system(s) including, inter alia, a personal computer (PC), a server computer, a database computer, etc. Computing system 10 is used for:

• 1. Inserting time stamps into a video data stream.
• 2. Transmitting the video stream (i.e., comprising the time stamps) to any of devices 8a . . . 8n.
• 3. Receiving interaction data (i.e., from any of devices 8a . . . 8n) associated with user functions performed during a broadcast of the video stream (i.e., by any of devices 8a . . . 8n).
• 4. Analyzing the interaction data.
• 5. Transmitting an analysis of the interaction data and any associated instructions to the devices 8a . . . 8n or an external entity (e.g., an advertiser).

Computing system 10 comprises a memory system 14. Memory system 14 may comprise a single memory system. Alternatively, memory system 14 may comprise a plurality of memory systems. Memory system 14 comprises a software application 18 and a database 12. Database 12 comprises all analysis data associated with user interactions related to a video stream. Software application 18 enables a method to measure and analyze a video stream broadcasted for a user. Software application 18 enables a process for measuring and analyzing a video stream broadcasted for a user as follows.

Computing system 10 (i.e., via software application 18) inserts timestamp meta-data into a live encoded on-demand video stream. The video stream is transmitted to a client (e.g., any of devices 8a . . . 8n). When the client receives each timestamp in the meta-data, the client invokes a measurement reporting process. A measurement interval associated with insertion points for (i.e., in the video stream) for the meta-data time stamps will determine how fine-grained a final analysis may be. Software application 18 may report partial video segments if a user interrupts the video between measurement intervals. A measurement reporting method is invoked with additional parameters to differentiate from live, on-demand, or reviewed video. User interaction information such as, inter alia, window focus, mouse movement, mouse clicks within the player, etc. may also be recorded via system 5 for analytic purposes. The user interaction information may be used to validate or invalidate video stream measurement statistics. The user interaction information may be used to determine if a user is actively watching a video stream or if the user has the video stream playing on their system without paying attention to it. Examples of user interaction information retrieved by software application 18 are described as follows:

Window Focus Information

Software application 18 may detect if a video player (e.g., a software video media player on one of devices 8a . . . 8n) is in focus through method calls to an operating system. When a video window (i.e., of a software video media player) focus changes, the change is recorded by software application 18. Window focus may indicate if a user is actively viewing streaming video media.

Mouse Movement Information

Software application 18 may detect mouse movement within a video window (i.e., of a software video media player). Additionally, software application 18 may detect mouse movement external to the video window using method calls to an operating system. Mouse movement indicates that a user is actively interacting with the computer and therefore likely watching the video streaming. Retrieving mouse movement information in combination with the window focus information allows software application 18 to an accurate depiction of a user's attentiveness to a video.

Volume Information

Software application 18 may detect a current volume of a software video media player and/or system. During a video stream measurement transmission, a state of the volume may be transmitted. Volume or lack of volume indicates if a user has heard any audio associated with the video stream during a specified time period. This measurement may be helpful to potential advertisers.

Software application 18 enables a process for analyzing an embedded time code compared to a relative reported system time in order to determine an increased buffer time or lag time for each end user. If software application 18 discerns that a quality of the video stream is below a threshold, software application 18 may alter the video stream or direct the user to a new video stream that consumes less bandwidth to enhance the video quality.

Devices 8a . . . 8n may report measurements using any method including, inter alia, HTTP over TCP/IP, etc. Devices 8a . . . 8n may enable an HTTP request to a measurement server (e.g., software application 18) and an associated measurement is recorded by the server and used for analytics. Any subset of the measurements or additional information may be transmitted with the measurement requests. Software application 18 enables generation of measurement reports comprising how many people viewed a live video stream at any given time, metrics associated with portions of an on-demand video section, and a determination of which advertisements were viewed (if advertisements were embedded in a primary video stream). If advertisements were displayed as separate sections, they could be likewise measured as separate sections. Software application 18 analyzes measurements to determine:

• 1. How much of a video stream a user has watched.
• 2. Which segments (and an order of the video segments) of a video stream have been viewed
• 3. Which segments of a video stream have been skipped.
• 4. Which segments of a video stream have been viewed more than once in a viewing session.

The following implementation example illustrates a process for measuring and analyzing a video stream broadcasted for a user. Initially, a video stream is embedded with timestamps every ten seconds. Note that the ten second interval may be modified up or down to increase or decrease a granularity of measurement calls. The video stream embedded with timestamps is transmitted from streaming server computing system (e.g., computing system 10) to a client application (i.e., a web video console of devices 8a . . . 8n). The client application displays the video stream for a user. As the client application displays the video stream it will also receive meta-data which has been inserted into the video stream (i.e., comprising embedded time stamps). When the client application receives a timestamp, it transmits a measurement call. This process begins by collecting a current time. The client application additionally collects data which may enhance measurement of the video stream. In this example the following data is collected:

• 1. An average volume since a last measurement call.
• 2. A Boolean value indicating if there was any mouse movement or clicks within the client application since a last measurement call.
• 3. A percentage value indicating how long the client application comprised a focused window since a last measurement call
• 4. A count of buffering events.

Additionally, a measurement service will generate a unique ID number for each client session.

The aforementioned retrieved measurement data is formatted into a text block and the text block is transmitted to the measurement server through an HTTP call from the client application. The measurement server accesses the measurement data and generates real-time reports. If a measurement value exceeds a specified threshold, a manual or automatic process may add instructions to the video stream as additional meta-data. In this example the measurement process reviews a variety of data points from the measurement calls. User activity, video performance, DVR activity, segments viewed, concurrent streams, max clients, are max streams are all reviewed. User activity is used to determine if a user is actually watching a video stream. Since each video stream served comprises an incremental cost, the video stream producers want to limit unwatched streams. During processing, the measurement server determines that a client with an id of 1234 has not had any activity in the past 30 minutes. A message is transmitted to an encoding process which embeds the id of 1234 and a message code of 1 into the video stream as meta-data. All client applications receive the message, but only client 1234 processes this message since it has a matching client id. The message code of 1, instructs the client video player to display a message to the user asking them to click a button if they are still watching. If the button is not clicked, the video client automatically disables the video stream after a specified time period. Additionally, the aforementioned method may be used for a live video performance. Based on a video lag (i.e., calculated as the difference between a video timestamp and a real time timestamp) and buffering events, a code may be transmitted to the client application. The code instructs the client application to switch to an alternative video stream. The alternative video stream may comprise a lower bit rate stream or may comprise a video stream from a different server which may be geographically closer (i.e., for improved network performance). The additional data, segments viewed, concurrent streams, max clients, and max streams are all reviewed by video producers to make business decisions about the video streams. Concurrent streams and max values are calculated using unique client ids and a series of measurement calls from each client application. Video segments viewed are calculated by looking at reported video timestamps. Each timestamp represents a segment of video 10 seconds long which ends at a timestamp time. As the timestamps are reported in measurement calls, a profile is generated illustrating which parts of the video are being displayed at any given time. In this example, the client application and video server comprise digital video recorder (DVR) capabilities, which allow users to rewind or pause a video and does not guarantee all users are watching a live version of the video stream. The details of these viewership patterns are available because of the timestamp based measurement technique described, supra.

FIG. 2 illustrates a flowchart describing an algorithm used by system 5 of FIG. 1 for implementing a method for measuring and analyzing a video stream broadcasted for a user, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. In step 201, a computing system (e.g., devices 8a . . . 8n of FIG. 1) receives a video stream comprising plurality of timestamps located at specified intervals of the video stream. In step 204, the computing system broadcasts the video stream for a user. In step 208, (i.e., as the video stream is broadcasted for the user) the computing system decodes time stamps (i.e., from the video stream) at different time periods. In step 210, the computing system monitors user interaction functions (e.g., comprising measurements) performed by the user and associated with the video stream. The measurements may include, inter alia:

• 1. A window focus percentage measurement occurring during the broadcast of a portion of the video stream.
• 2. A mouse movement measurement occurring during the broadcast of a portion of the video stream.
• 3. An increased buffer time/lag associated with the broadcast the video stream.
• 4. An average volume level for an audio stream associated with the video stream occurring during the broadcast of said video stream.

The measurements may be compiled into usage statistics and viewing patterns associated with the video stream. The measurements occur at different time periods with reference to the time stamps. In step 218, the different time periods (i.e., associated with the time stamps of step 208 or reference time periods) are optionally compared to each other to determine differences. For example, different time periods associated with different time stamps (i.e., associated with the measurements) may be compared to each other to determine differences. Alternatively, different time periods associated with different time stamps (i.e., associated with the measurements) may be compared to predetermined reference time periods to determine differences. Additionally, different time periods associated with different time stamps (i.e., associated with the measurements) may be compared to each other and predetermined reference time periods to determine differences. In step 220, the computing system generates a report comprising a descriptions associated with the first user interaction functions, the time periods of step 208, and the differences of step 218. In step 224, the computing system transmits the report to an analysis computing system (e.g., computing system 10 of FIG. 1). In step 228, the computing system receives (i.e., from the analysis computing system) an analysis report (generated by the analysis computing system) generated from information on the report of step 220. In step 232, the computing system receives (i.e., from the analysis computing system) instructions (and optionally load data indicating a current capacity and load associated with the computing system) associated with the analysis and the video stream. The instructions may be received as meta data inserted in the video stream. The instructions comprise commands for performing specified functions associated with the video stream. For example, the instructions may command the user of the computing system to, inter alia, disable the video stream and enable a replacement video stream, adjust a focus of the video stream, adjust a volume of an audio signal associated with the video stream, etc. In step 234, the computing system (optionally) automatically enables the commands associated with the instructions.
