Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for providing content via multiple display devices. First content is transmitted to a second computing device for rendering on a first display device. A current state of the first content rendered on the first display device is determined. A directive is sent to a third computing device to render second content that is synchronized to be relevant to the current state of the first content on a second display device corresponding to the third computing device. The second content comprises a list of cast members currently on screen in the first content.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- transmitting, by at least one first computing device corresponding to one or more servers, first content to a second computing device for rendering on a first display device;
- determining, by the at least one first computing device, a current state of the first content rendered on the first display device;
- and
- sending, by the at least one first computing device, a directive to a third computing device to render second content that is synchronized to be relevant to the current state of the first content on a second display device corresponding to the third computing device, wherein the second content comprises a list of cast members currently on screen in the first content, and the third computing device corresponds to a mobile computing device.
A system, comprising:
- at least one first computing device corresponding to one or more servers;
- and
- instructions executable in the at least one first computing device, wherein when executed the instructions cause the at least one first computing device to at least:
- transmit first content to a second computing device for rendering on a first display device;
- determine a current state of the first content rendered on the first display device;
- and
- send a directive to a third computing device to render second content that is synchronized to be relevant to the current state of the first content on a second display device corresponding to the third computing device, wherein the second content comprises a list of cast members currently on screen in the first content, and the third computing device corresponds to a mobile computing device.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying a program executable in at least one first computing device corresponding to one or more servers, wherein when executed the program causes the at least one first computing device to at least:
- transmit first content to a second computing device for rendering on a first display device;
- determine a current state of the first content rendered on the first display device;
- and
- send a directive to a third computing device to render second content that is synchronized to be relevant to the current state of the first content on a second display device corresponding to the third computing device, wherein the second content comprises a list of cast members currently on screen in the first content, and the third computing device corresponds to a mobile computing device.
