Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for sharing content viewed by a user. Multimedia content may be presented by an output device to an audience. A selection of a portion of the multimedia content is selected for sharing by an audience member. Additionally, synchronized combinations of captured real-time media content with played-back digital content are generated by systems and devices. A media content stream from a source device that is to be played back by a sink device is buffered. Messages pertaining to the capture of a first media clip are received from a media capture device, and based on the messages, a portion of the buffered content stream is identified and extracted to generate a second media clip. Combined media content is generated by combining the first and the second media clips, and the combined media content is stored for later playback and sharing.
