Abstract

A method and system for rendering a video. A selection, by a user, of two or more occluded videos of multiple occluded videos that include (i) video on a displayed first page occluded by one or more pages of multiple other pages opened and displayed and (ii) video on selected pages of the multiple other pages occluded by an opening of subsequent pages of the other pages. A selection by the user of a page of the multiple other pages on which to view the two or more occluded videos is received. The two or more occluded videos are transferred simultaneously to the selected page. The two or more occluded videos are displayed on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A method for rendering a video, said method comprising:
receiving, by one or more processors of a computer system, a selection by a user of two or more occluded videos of a plurality of occluded videos comprising (i) video on a first page displayed on a computerized device, said video on the first page occluded by one or more pages of a plurality of other pages sequentially opened and displayed on the computerized device and (ii) video on selected pages of the plurality of other pages occluded by an opening of subsequent pages of the other pages; receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by the user of a page of the plurality of other pages on which to view the two or more occluded videos; transferring simultaneously, by the one or more processors, the two or more occluded videos to the selected page; and displaying, by the one or more processors, the two or more occluded videos on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user.

2 . The method of claim 1 , said displaying comprising displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user while the user is multitasking on the selected page.

3 . The method of claim 1 , said method comprising:
identifying and retrieving, by the one or more processors, a source location of each occluded video of the two or more occluded videos; and inputting, by the one or more processors, the source location of each occluded video of the two or more occluded videos into source code of the selected page for implementing said transferring the two or more occluded videos to the selected page.

4 . The method of claim 1 , said method comprising:
receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by the user of an order of displaying the one or more occluded videos on the selected page.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the selected page sets an order of displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein a cloud computing system comprises the computer system.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the video on the first page is selected from the group consisting of video being played on the first page, video paused on the first page, and video stopped on the first page.

8 . A computer program product, comprising one or more computer readable hardware storage devices having computer readable program code stored therein, said program code containing instructions executable by one or more processors of a computer system to implement a method for rendering a video, said method comprising:
receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by a user of two or more occluded videos of a plurality of occluded videos comprising (i) video on a first page displayed on a computerized device, said video on the first page occluded by one or more pages of a plurality of other pages sequentially opened and displayed on the computerized device and (ii) video on selected pages of the plurality of other pages occluded by an opening of subsequent pages of the other pages; receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by the user of a page of the plurality of other pages on which to view the two or more occluded videos; transferring simultaneously, by the one or more processors, the two or more occluded videos to the selected page; and displaying, by the one or more processors, the two or more occluded videos on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user.

9 . The computer program product of claim 8 , said displaying comprising displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user while the user is multitasking on the selected page.

10 . The computer program product of claim 8 , said method comprising:
identifying and retrieving, by the one or more processors, a source location of each occluded video of the two or more occluded videos; and inputting, by the one or more processors, the source location of each occluded video of the two or more occluded videos into source code of the selected page for implementing said transferring the two or more occluded videos to the selected page.

11 . The computer program product of claim 8 , said method comprising:
receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by the user of an order of displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page.

12 . The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the selected page sets an order of displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page.

13 . The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein a cloud computing system comprises the computer system.

14 . The computer program product of claim 28 , wherein the video on the first page is selected from the group consisting of video being played on the first page, video paused on the first page, and video stopped on the first page.

15 . A computer system, comprising one or more processors, one or more memories, and one or more computer readable hardware storage devices, said one or more hardware storage device containing program code executable by the one or more processors via the one or more memories to implement a method for rendering a video, said method comprising:
displaying, by one or more processors of a computer system, a first page for a user on a computerized device, said first page comprising video; receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by a user of two or more occluded videos of a plurality of occluded videos comprising (i) video on a first page displayed on a computerized device, said video on the first page occluded by one or more pages of a plurality of other pages sequentially opened and displayed on the computerized device and (ii) video on selected pages of the plurality of other pages occluded by an opening of subsequent pages of the other pages; receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by the user of a page of the plurality of other pages on which to view the two or more occluded videos; transferring simultaneously, by the one or more processors, the two or more occluded videos to the selected page; and displaying, by the one or more processors, the two or more occluded videos on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user.

16 . The computer system of claim 15 , said displaying comprising displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page for continuous viewing by the user while the user is multitasking on the selected page.

17 . The computer system of claim 15 , said method comprising:
identifying and retrieving, by the one or more processors, a source location of each occluded video of the two or more occluded videos; and inputting, by the one or more processors, the source location of each occluded video of the two or more occluded videos into source code of the selected page for implementing said transferring the two or more occluded videos to the selected page.

18 . The computer system of claim 15 , said method comprising:
receiving, by the one or more processors, a selection by the user of an order of displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page.

19 . The computer system of claim 15 , wherein the selected page sets an order of displaying the two or more occluded videos on the selected page.

20 . The computer system of claim 15 , wherein a cloud computing system comprises the computer system.
