Abstract
In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media are described that are associated with presentation of video data during pause. In embodiments, upon receipt of a pause command, a video presentation engine may repeatedly present a multi-frame segment of video content until a resume command is received. In embodiments, the multi-frame segment may begin at a point when the pause command is received or at an earlier point. Sound may be selectively played, in embodiments, along with the multi-frame segment. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

1-25. (canceled)
At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, in response to execution of the instructions by a media player computing device, cause the media player computing device to:
- present a video content;
- with respect to the video content, maintain a time-shifted pointer that is shifted by a length of time or number of frames prior to a pause point;
- upon receipt of a command to suspend continued presentation of the video content, set the pause point at a frame then being rendered and repeatedly present a multi-frame segment of the video content , wherein the multi-frame segment of the video content begins at the time-shifted pointer, ends at the pause point, and returns to the time-shifted pointer;
- and
- upon receipt of a command to resume presentation of the video content, either allow a then-current repeated presentation of the multi-frame segment of the video content to continue in the video content without return to the time-shifted pointer or jump to the pause point and resume presentation of the video content
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors and a presentation engine coupled with the one or more processors, wherein the presentation engine is to:
- present a video content;
- with respect to the video content, maintain a time-shifted pointer that is shifted by a length of time or number of frames prior to a pause point;
- upon receipt of a command to suspend continued presentation of the video content, set the pause point at a frame then being rendered and repeatedly present a multi-frame segment of the video content , wherein the multi-frame segment of the video content begins at the time-shifted pointer, ends at the pause point, and returns to the time-shifted pointer;
- and
- upon receipt of a command to resume presentation of the video content, either allow a then-current repeated presentation of the multi-frame segment of the video content to continue in the video content without return to the time-shifted pointer or jump to the pause point and resume presentation of the video content.
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- by a media player computer device:
- presenting a video content;
- with respect to the video content, maintaining a time-shifted pointer that is shifted by a length of time or number of frames prior to a pause point;
- receiving a command to suspend continued presentation of the video content;
- setting the pause point at a frame then being rendered and repeatedly presenting a multi-frame segment of the video content, wherein the multi-frame segment of the video content begins at the time-shifted pointer, ends at the pause point, and returns to the time-shifted pointer;
- and
- receiving a command to resume presentation of the video content and either allowing a then-current repeated presentation of the multi-frame segment of the video content to continue in the video content without return to the time-shifted pointer or jumping to the pause point and resuming presentation of the video content.
An apparatus comprising:
- means to present a video content;
- with respect to the video content, means to maintain a time-shifted pointer that is shifted by a length of time or number of frames prior to a pause point;
- means to receive a command to suspend continued presentation of the video content, set the pause point at a frame then being rendered and means to repeatedly present a multi-frame segment of the video content, wherein the multi-frame segment of the video content begins at the time-shifted pointer, ends at the pause point, and returns to the time-shifted pointer;
- and
- means to receive a command to resume presentation of the video content and either allow a then-current repeated presentation of the multi-frame segment of the video content to continue in the video content without return to the time-shifted pointer or jump to the pause point and resume presentation of the video content.
