Abstract
In aspects of multiple-device media swap, a mobile device in a video content viewing system displays first video content on an integrated display of the device, and receives second video content without displaying the second video content. The mobile device continues to receive the second video content, without displaying the second video content, while the first video content is received and presented. The mobile device can initiate an instruction to swap from displaying the first video content to displaying the second video content on the integrated display of the mobile device. The instruction also initiates another device of the video content viewing system that is receiving both the first and second video content to swap from displaying the second video content to displaying the first video content.
