Abstract:
A scalable, multi-platform, seamless Server-side Ad-Insertion system and method with a single stream input and output having an Advertisement Detector and Playlist Instrumenter (ADPI) which puts out Advertisement Break position and duration for an Advertisement Replacement System (ARS) and a Common Instrumented Playlist (CIP) for the users, a Load Switch to balance the ADPI and ARS loads when they need to scale according to user-demand, and a plurality of users on a plurality of devices and platforms communicating with the ARS. The ARS communicates with the Advertisement Server to enable fetching advertisements for every user and reports successful advertisement playback. The CIP contains a list of URLs having Beacon redirections which are added periodically to indicate user presence to the ARS and content URLs. ServeAd redirections is added to the ARS only during advertisement break so that ARS can replace in-stream advertisements.

Claim (Index 6):
The system of  claim 1  wherein the ARS ( 414 ) receives information from the ADPI in the format {Splice PTS, Break Type, Media Index, duration} wherein:\n a) splice PTS is frame accurate position in Audio/Video (A/V) segment expressed as Timestamp, Break Type indicates start or end of an Advertisement Break, Media Index is segment number in a variant playlist, where change was noticed, the duration is not always available more so for Live input streams; \n b) the media index and PTS values are same and can be cross-referenced across variants, said message format look similar to communication between the Cue Detector ( 404 ) and Break Aggregator ( 406 ), this is because of the Break Aggregator ( 406 ) aggregates break; and \n c) these aggregated breaks are communicated to the ARS ( 414 ) by the Playlist Builder ( 409 ).
