Abstract:
A system renders a graphical representation of a timeline of a first video in a graphical user interface. The system receives a notification during playback of the first video at a first location in the first video. The notification indicates a request to playback the first video at a second location in the first video. The system determines that a second video is renderable during the first video between the first location and the second location. The system determines a viewing status associated with the user. The viewing status indicates whether the second video has been previously rendered for a user account on a client machine, and determines whether the user may view the first video at a second location in the first video, based on the viewing status associated with the user.
