Abstract
A method includes communicatively coupling a first client device to a platform that distributes live streams over a network to client devices. The live streams provide a live broadcast of a live event from multiple viewpoints captured by source devices including a second client device. An indication is received of a selection of a first viewpoint from the first client device and, in response, a first live stream is provided to the first client device. The first client device is caused to display a second viewpoint with a different vantage point by rendering a second live stream of a second source device. The second live stream is delayed for rendering until a beginning of a next scene of the first live stream.
