Claim:
A process for a REAL TIME AUTOMATED UNOBTRUSIVE ANCILLIARY INFORMATION INSERTION INTO A VIDEO for the insertion of an Advertising Segment or Logo into a Selected Video by a User which is displayed on the User's Monitor comprising the User selecting the Selected Video from an assortment of consumer available digital videos which is transmitted into an Advertising Handler Process where it is initially stored along with the Advertising Segment and Logo where said Advertising Segment and Logo are compatible with the metadata of the User and Selected Video, and then the Advertising Handler Process simultaneously utililizes an AdHandler Process for calculating advertisement video coordinates by decomposing the video digital media content into a series of consecutive frames and then finding and identifying advertisement placement locations on said Selected Video of relatively static characteristics of color within a pixel area with geometry of adequate dimensions and an adequate time interval as a location which will receive a layer containing the Logo or the Advertising Segment as compatible with said Logo or the Advertising Segment and at said time interval and said pixel area onto the Selected Video and then choosing from the said placement locations a priority location that is likely to be most prominent on the said consecutive frames and concurrently an Widget Process for calculating a time to insert said Advertising Segment adjacent to the said Selected Video in a split screen presentation by analyzing the sound track of said Selected Video for an extended relatively quiet sequence of frames of adequate time interval that will permit the presentation of a playlet Advertising Segment and marking said quiet sequence of frames as the highest priority at the occurrence of said quiet sequence of frames then the said Advertising Handler Process conveys the processed data to an Embedder Process which flattens said Advertising Segment or said Logo onto the Selected Video and/or presents the said split screen presentation to the said Monitor whereby said Advertising Segment or said Logo is combined by the claimed processes as a integral part of the said Selected Video without distracting the User from the sequence of the selected video content.
