Specification

CLIAMS:We claim:
1. A method for managing displaying of multimedia content on an electronic device, the method comprising:
receiving, by the electronic device, multimedia stream from a broadcasting server;
identifying, by the electronic device, at least one of splice information associated with the multimedia stream and Group of Pictures (GOP) frame sequence of the multimedia stream;
determining, by the electronic device, a current slot information of the multimedia content to be displayed from the at least one of the splice information and the GOP frame sequence;
modifying, by the electronic device, the current slot information of the multimedia content based on one or more decision parameters associated with the multimedia content; and
displaying, by the electronic device, the multimedia content based on the modified current slot information for managing the displaying of the multimedia content on the electronic device.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein identifying the splice information associated with the multimedia stream of the multimedia stream is performed based on event specific information associated with the multimedia stream.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the GOP frame sequence comprises sequences of Intra (I) frame, Predictive (P) frame and Bipredictive (B) frame.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the current slot information comprises at least one of duration of the multimedia content and timestamp of displaying the multimedia content.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the one or more decision parameters comprises at least one of user parameters, broadcaster parameters, system contextual information, multimedia content contextual information, buffer information of the multimedia content and network parameters of the multimedia content.
6. The method as claimed in claim 5, wherein the user parameters comprise at least one of preferences of users for watching the multimedia content, historical information associated with the multimedia content watched by the user, user category information watching at least one of the multimedia stream and the multimedia content, subscribing information associated with the multimedia stream and responses of the user towards the multimedia stream.

7. The method as claimed in claim 5, wherein the broadcaster parameters comprise at least one of one or more constraints and one or more rules predefined for broadcasting the multimedia content.

8. The method as claimed in claim 5, wherein the system contextual information comprises information of environment surrounding a user.

9. The method as claimed in claim 5, where in the multimedia content contextual information comprises at least one of information based on the multimedia content being watched, type of the multimedia content being watched, and a current multimedia stream being watched by the user.

10. An electronic device for managing displaying multimedia content on the electronic device, comprising:
a processor;
a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores processor-executable instructions, which, on execution, cause the processor to:
receive multimedia stream from a broadcasting server;
identify at least one of splice information associated with the multimedia stream and Group of Pictures (GOP) frame sequence of the multimedia stream;
determine a current slot information of the multimedia content to be displayed from the at least one of the splice information and the GOP frame sequence;
modify the current slot information of the multimedia content based on one or more decision parameters associated with the multimedia content; and
display the multimedia content based on the modified current slot information for managing the displaying of the multimedia content on the electronic device.

11. The electronic device as claimed in claim 10, wherein the memory stores the splice information and the GOP frames sequence.

12. A method for managing broadcasting of multimedia content to an electronic device, the method comprising:
identifying, by a broadcasting server, at least one of splice information associated with multimedia stream and Group of Pictures (GOP) frame sequence of the multimedia stream;
determining, by the broadcasting sever, a current slot information of the multimedia content to be broadcasted from the at least one of the splice information and the GOP frame sequence;
modifying, by the broadcasting server, the current slot information of the multimedia content based on one or more decision parameters associated with the multimedia content; and
broadcasting, by the broadcasting sever, the multimedia content based on the modified current slot information to the electronic device for managing the broadcasting of the multimedia content to the electronic device.

13. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein identifying the splice information associated with the multimedia stream is performed based on event specific information associated with the multimedia stream.

14. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein the GOP frame sequence comprises sequences of Intra (I) frame, Predictive (P) frame and Bipredictive (B) frame.

15. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein the current slot information comprises at least one of duration of the multimedia content and timestamp of broadcasting the multimedia content.
16. The method as claimed in claim 12, wherein the one or more decision parameters comprises at least one of user parameters, broadcaster parameters, system contextual information, multimedia content contextual information, buffer information of the multimedia content and network parameters of the multimedia content.

17. The method as claimed in claim 16, wherein the user parameters comprise at least one of preferences of users for watching the multimedia content, historical information associated with the multimedia content watched by the user, user category information watching at least one of the multimedia stream and the multimedia content, subscribing information associated with the multimedia stream and responses of the user towards the multimedia stream.

18. The method as claimed in claim 16, wherein the broadcaster parameters comprise at least one of one or more constraints and one or more rules predefined for broadcasting the multimedia content.

19. The method as claimed in claim 16, wherein the system contextual information comprises information of environment surrounding a user.
