Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, from a media-player device associated with a social-networking system, an indication that a plurality of client systems of a plurality of users of an online social network, respectively, are proximate to the media-player device. Each of the users is logged into a native application associated with the social-networking system on a respective client system. The media-player device is communicatively coupled to a display screen. The social-networking system may access, in response to the received indication, social-networking information and watch-history information of each user. The social-networking system may select one or more media-content items from a plurality of media-content items based on the social-networking information and watch-history information of each user. The social-networking system may send, to the media-player device, the one or more selected media-content items and instructions to send the selected media-content items to the display screen for display to the users.
