CONTEXTUALLY-AWARE CONTROL OF A USER INTERFACE DISPLAYING A VIDEO AND RELATED USER TEXT

摘要

The disclosed techniques provide a computing device that displays video content within a comment section of a user interface. When users invoke a video display by selecting a link within a user interface comment section, a system can control a navigational position of a user interface to concurrently display the video and selected comments within the comment section. In one illustrative example, a system can display a user interface having a video display area and a comment section. The user interface may be positioned to show the comment section within a viewing area of a display device, and such a position may place the video display area outside of the viewing area. In such a scenario, when a system receives a user input indicating a selection of a comment displayed within the comment section, the system can generate a rendering of the video content for display within the comment section.
