Abstract
Networked multi-room system ad insertion. Replacement material can be inserted into a presentation from a tuned source in a networked multi-room system (NMS) with a primary device and at least one remote device. Ad-insertion tags in the presentation correspond with commercial breaks in the presentation. Replacement material, such as new commercials, that may be user specific, can be inserted at the tags. The presentation can be recorded to a DVD or played from the primary device to remote devices in the NMS. Different devices could display the same presentation, but with different commercials.
