Abstract

Synchronizing a video feed with internet content displayed on a second device is described. In some implementations, a first device (e.g., a set-top box) can receive a video stream, extract URLs from the video stream and transmit the URLs to a web server for storage. The web server can respond to requests from a web browser on a second device (e.g., a laptop, tablet computer, etc.) to get the URL associated with the video stream. The second device can use the URL to display internet content associated with the video stream.
