Broadcast content replacement based on file modification

Abstract

Systems and methods for the optimized allocation of content according to a schedule are described. In some embodiments, a system may be configured to modify a schedule file to replace broadcast content. The system may receive the schedule file indicating an identifier associated with content to be output during a slot associated with a time window in a broadcast event. The system may modify the schedule file to replace the identifier with a replacement identifier associated with replacement content. The system may transmit the broadcast event as a linear feed comprising the replacement content.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
