Abstract:
1. A method for screening contiguous video segments including at least one segment, the method comprising: receiving the at least one segment from at least one originator, wherein the at least one segment is pre-recorded and at least partially created by the at least one originator; storing the at least one segment with a media store, wherein the media store is configured to provide the at least one segment using a first peer-to-peer protocol, providing the at least one segment to a first screener at a first portable screening room, wherein the first screener receives information from the media store by passing information over a local area network (LAN) without passing information over the Internet; providing the at least one segment to a second screener at a second portable screening room using a second peer-to-peer protocol different from the first peer-to-peer protocol, wherein the second screener receives information by passing information over the Internet, scheduling a concurrent viewing of the at least one segment with at least the first and second screeners; synchronizing playback on both of the first and second portable screening rooms; associating feedback from at least one of the first and/or second screener with the at least one segment, thereby obtaining associated feedback; and delivering the associated feedback and the at least one segment to the at least one originator.
