Content replacement with onscreen displays
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a processing device of a client device, media content from a content feed;
receiving, at the processing device, overlay content from a content computing device in communication with the processing device;
compositing, by the processing device, the media content, an onscreen display, and the overlay content into a composite image, wherein the media content comprises a bottom layer of the composite image and includes a first set of pixels, the onscreen display comprises a middle layer of the composite image and includes a second set of pixels separate from the first set of pixels, and the overlay content comprises a top layer of the composite image and includes a third set of pixels separate from the first set of pixels and the second set of pixels;
determining, by the processing device, a location of the overlay content that overlaps a portion of the onscreen display;
defining, by the processing device, a portion of the third set of pixels as a window in the overlay content that corresponds to the location of the overlay content that overlaps the onscreen display; and
adjusting, by the processing device, a transparency level of the portion of the third set of pixels to permit a portion of the second set of pixels to be at least partially visible through the window.

Abstract
A method of content replacement with onscreen displays. The method can further include sending an overlay request to provide overlay content and an overlay format. The method can include receiving the overlay content and the overlay format selected in view of overlay parameters. The method can include superimposing the overlay content over the media content using the overlay format. The method can include detecting a presence of an onscreen display. The method can include determining a location of a portion of the onscreen display that extends underneath the overlay content. The method can include defining a window in the overlay content that corresponds to at least the location of the portion of the onscreen display. The method can include setting a transparency level of the overlay content in the window to permit the portion of the onscreen display to be at least partially visible through the overlay content.
