Abstract
Methods and systems are described herein to predict events within a content stream. Based on the predicted events, information may be embedded within the stream. A computing device that receives the content stream may detect the predicted event and may wait a randomly generated time before requesting information associated with the predicted event, such as requesting an advertisement to output. After detecting the predicted event, the computing device may wait a randomly generated time before requesting an advertisement. The system may respond to the computing device with an instruction or with supplemental content, such as with an advertisement for later output. The computing device may cache the advertisement. The computing device may detect the actual marker indicating a timestamp for when the advertisement should be output. The computing device may output the advertisement at the time indicated by the timestamp.
