Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate regulation of trickplay control during playback of streaming multimedia. Trickplay control can be regulated by associating a segment of a multimedia stream with a finite state automaton, associating a state of the finite state automaton with a flag, and controlling transitions from state to state within the finite state automaton by client interactions with the multimedia stream or predetermined time period.
