Abstract: In a method and system for viewer interaction with streaming media, a scene from a media presentation is displayed with a broadcasting device that includes an operating system level broadcaster interface overlay. The overlay generates an image frame from the scene. The image frame is sent to a viewer device. Viewer interaction parameters are received from a viewing device and a viewer interaction is displayed over a subsequent scene from the media presentation with the broadcaster interface overlay. On a viewing device an image frame from the media presentation is received from the broadcasting device. An operating system level viewer interface overlay is generated over the image frame and the image frame of the media presentation is displayed. Viewer interaction parameters are generated from a viewer interaction with the operating system level viewer interface overlay and sent to the broadcasting device.

Abstract: Game-specific screen share features can be provided to viewers of a video game livestream. The viewers can control a themed or adaptive cursor presented to the gamer during gameplay, and can also provide themed or adaptive sentiment-based reactions to the gamer during gameplay. The cursor and reactions can then be surfaced to the gamer a number of ways and can even be tied back into the game execution environment itself.
