At least one set of object data may be associated with a live-streaming media. One or more media-object bindings between the at least one set of object data and the live-streaming media may be formed and stored in memory or one or more databases. The at least one set of object data may include data about one or more objects displayed in real-time during the live-streaming media. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method of media-object binding and displaying real-time play data for a live-streaming media based on one or more objects displaying therein, the method comprising: associating at least one set of object data with at least a portion of the live-streaming media, wherein the at least one set of object data comprises data about the one or more objects displayed in real-time in the live-streaming media; forming, based on the associating, one or more media-object bindings between the at least one set of object data and the at least the portion of the live-streaming media; storing the one or more media-object bindings in one or more databases; determining one of the one or more objects displayed in the live-streaming media is an object of interest for categorizing the live-streaming media; forming a dynamic category of live-streaming media including the live-streaming media, wherein the dynamic category is updated in real-time to limit the dynamic category to live-streaming media that are displaying the object of interest in real-time; and displaying the real-time play data associated with the at least one set of object data in association with the live-streaming media. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: prior to the associating, generating the at least one set of object data based on the one or more objects displayed in the live-streaming media. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining relevant object data for a user based on game history of the user; and presenting an associated dynamic results list to the user, wherein the associated dynamic results list comprise a list of live-streaming media, including the live-streaming media, that each display, in real-time, one or more relevant objects associated with the relevant object data for the user. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the object of interest is with respect to aspects of gameplay, a character, a weapon, a play mode, or a skill level of a player. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: displaying the dynamic category as a results list for a target user. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The method of claim 5, wherein the results list is further filtered based on characteristics of the target user. ### Claim 7 (depends on 5) The method of claim 5, wherein the displaying is based on an input by the target user. ### Claim 8 A system for media-object binding and displaying real-time play data for a live-streaming media based on one or more objects displaying therein, the system comprising: one or more databases that stores sets of object data and media-object bindings between the live-streaming media and at least one set of object data; and one or more processors that executes instructions stored in memory, wherein execution of the instructions by the one or more processors: associates the at least one set of object data with at least a portion of the live-streaming media, wherein the at least one set of object data comprises data about the one or more objects displayed in real-time in the live-streaming media; forms, based on the association, one or more media-object bindings between the at least one set of object data and the at least a portion of the live-streaming media; stores the one or more media-object bindings in the one or more databases; determines one of the one or more objects displayed in the live-streaming media is an object of interest for categorizing the live-streaming media; forms a dynamic category of live-streaming media including the live-streaming media, wherein the dynamic category is updated in real-time to limit the dynamic category to live-streaming media that are displaying the object of interest in real-time; and displays the real-time play data associated with the at least one set of object data in association with the live-streaming media. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein the one or more databases further stores the live-streaming media. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein further execution of the instructions by the one or more processors: prior to the associating, generates the at least one set of object data based on the one or more objects displayed in the live-streaming media. ### Claim 11 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein further execution of the instructions by the one or more processors: determines relevant object data for a user based on game history of the user; and presents an associated dynamic results list to the user, wherein the associated dynamic results list comprise a list of live-streaming media, including the live-streaming media, that each display, in real-time, one or more objects associated with the relevant object data for the user. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein the object of interest is with respect to aspects of gameplay, a character, a weapon, a play mode, or a skill level of a player. ### Claim 13 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein further execution of the instructions by the one or more processors: displays the dynamic category as a results list for a target user. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The system of claim 13, wherein the results list is further filtered based on characteristics of the target user. ### Claim 15 (depends on 13) The system of claim 13, wherein the displaying is based on an input by the target user. ### Claim 16 A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program executable by one or more processors to perform a method for media-object binding and displaying real-time play data for a live-streaming media based on one or more objects displaying therein, the method comprising: associating at least one set of object data with at least a portion of the live-streaming media, wherein the at least one set of object data comprises data about the one or more objects displayed in real-time in the live-streaming media; forming, based on the association, one or more media-object bindings between the at least one set of object data and the at least a portion of the live-streaming media; storing the one or more media-object bindings in one or more databases; determining one of the one or more objects displayed in the live-streaming media is an object of interest for categorizing the live-streaming media; forming a dynamic category of live-streaming media including the live-streaming media, wherein the dynamic category is updated in real-time to limit the dynamic category to live-streaming media that are displaying the object of interest in real-time; and displaying the real-time play data associated with the at least one set of object data in association with the live-streaming media. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, further comprising: prior to the associating, generating the at least one set of object data based on the one or more objects displayed in the live-streaming media. ### Claim 18 (depends on 16) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, further comprising: determining relevant object data for a user based on game history of the user; and presenting an associated dynamic results list to the user, wherein the associated dynamic results list comprise a list of live-streaming media, including the live-streaming media, that each display, in real-time, one or more objects associated with the relevant object data for the user. ### Claim 19 (depends on 16) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the object of interest is with respect to aspects of gameplay, a character, a weapon, a play mode, or a skill level of a player. ### Claim 20 (depends on 16) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, further comprising: displaying the dynamic category as a results list for a target user viewing the results list. ### Claim 21 (depends on 20) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 20, wherein the results list is further filtered based on characteristics of the target user. ### Claim 22 (depends on 20) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 20, wherein the displaying is based on an input by the target user.
