Abstract

Disclosed are various examples for analyzing the consumption of media content on a client device. A computing environment can be employed to access measurement data obtained by a client application executable on the client device during a rendering of media content on the client device. The computing environment generates a metric describing a probability a user of the client device has watched or otherwise consumed at least a portion of the media content being rendered on the client device. A determination can be made whether a compliance rule associated with the media content has been satisfied using the generated metric. If the compliance rule associated with the media content is not satisfied, a suitable remedial action can be determined and performed in the client device.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program instructions executable in at least one computing device comprising at least one hardware processor that, when executed by the at least one computing device, cause the at least one computing device to:

generate a request for measurement data obtained by a client device during playback of media content;
generate a metric based upon the measurement data received from the client device, the metric indicating a probability that a user of the client device has watched at least a portion of the media content;
identify a compliance rule associated with the media content, the compliance rule specifying a threshold amount of the media content required to be consumed for the client device to maintain compliance with a remote management service;
determine that the compliance rule associated with the media content has not been satisfied based at least in part upon the metric;
and
generate an additional request for transmission to the client device in response to the compliance rule not being satisfied, the additional request causing a client application executable in the client device to perform a remedial action identified by the additional request.

3 more elements

A system, comprising:

at least one computing device in data communication with a client device over a network;
and
a remote management application that, when executed by the at least one computing device, causes the at least one computing device to at least:
generate a request for measurement data from the client device during playback of media content;
generate a metric based at least upon the measurement data indicating a probability a user of the client device has watched at least a portion of the media content;
identifying a compliance rule associated with the media content, the compliance rule specifying a threshold amount of the media content required to be consumed for the client device to maintain compliance with the remote management application;
determine that a compliance rule associated with the media content is not satisfied based at least in part upon the metric;
and
generate an additional request for the client device in response to the compliance rule not being satisfied, the additional request causing a client application executable in the client device to perform a remedial action identified by the additional request.
