Methods and systems for content control

An apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing processor executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
• receive a data stream comprising a placement signal repeatedly embedded into a portion of the data stream at a time interval based on a time duration of an event associated with the data stream, wherein the placement signal comprises an instruction to modify the data stream based on the time duration;
• process the placement signal to select a source of content;
• and
• receive content from the source of content, wherein the content has a content time duration equal to a time slot.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• receive a data stream;
• determine an event associated with the data stream, wherein the event is associated with a time duration;
• generate, based on the event, a placement signal that comprises an instruction to modify the data stream;
• determine, based on the time duration, a time interval for repeatedly embedding the placement signal into a portion of the data stream;
• and
• embed, based on the time interval, the placement signal into the portion of the data stream.
