A system for performing digital rights protected content playing includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing a software code. The hardware processor executes the software code to receive, from a first user, metadata identifying one or more content segment(s), determine whether the first user has a right to access the content segment(s), produce a playlist using the metadata when the first user has the right, and output the playlist to the first user and/or a second user. The hardware processor may further execute the software code to receive the playlist from the second user, determine each content segment identified by the playlist that the second user has a right to access, generate a content compilation that omits any content segment identified by the playlist to which the second user lacks the right, and playout the content compilation to the second user.
BACKGROUND (1) Media content in the form of movie content and television (TV) programming content, for example, is widely sought out and enjoyed by consumers. One source of pleasure for many consumers of movie and TV programming content is the ability to quickly access a favorite movie or TV scene without playing the movie or TV program that includes the scene in its entirety. Another source of pleasure for many consumers is playing back favorite scenes with friends or family. (2) The desire by a consumer to gain quick play of preferred portions of content for personal enjoyment, may cause the consumer to make a personalized content clip by denoting favorite segments of content from the original and stringing those segments together. That personalized content clip can then be sent to friends or family, or posted to a social media platform. Unfortunately, those often innocently intended practices stray into illegality when digital rights protected content is copied and distributed to consumers who lack a right to access that content, such as a license or other entitlement to the content. Although legally playable content clips can be obtained from some sources, those clips are typically produced with promotional intent and reflect the editorial preferences of the owner or owners of the content, rather than its consumers. Consequently, there is a need in the art for a solution enabling the legal playing of personalized content clips produced from digital rights protected conten
1. A system comprising: a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code; the hardware processor configured to execute the software code to: receive, from a first user, metadata identifying a plurality of contents; produce a first content compilation for the first user using the metadata, the first content compilation identifying the plurality of contents; output the first content compilation to the first user; receive, from a second user, information identifying the first content compilation produced for the first user; determine one or more of the plurality of contents identified by the first content compilation that the second user lacks a right to access; generate a second content compilation for the second user using the first content compilation, the second content compilation omitting the one or more of the plurality of contents identified by the first content compilation that are determined the second user lacks the right to access; and playout the second content compilation to the second user. ||
10. A method comprising: receiving, from a first user, metadata identifying a plurality of contents; producing a first content compilation for the first user using the metadata, the first content compilation identifying the plurality of contents; outputting the first content compilation to the first user; receiving, from a second user, information identifying the first content compilation produced for the first user; determining one or more of the plurality of contents identified by the first content compilation that the second user lacks a right to access; generating a second content compilation for the second user using the first content compilation, the second content compilation omitting the one or more of the plurality of contents identified by the first content compilation that are determined the second user lacks the right to access; and playing out the second content compilation to the second user. ||
19. A system comprising: a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a software code; the hardware processor configured to execute the software code to: receive, from a first user, metadata identifying a plurality of contents; produce a first content compilation for the first user using the metadata, the first content compilation identifying the plurality of contents; output the first content compilation to the first user; receive, from a second user, information identifying the first content compilation produced for the first user; determine one or more of the plurality of contents identified by the first content compilation that the second user lacks a right to access; generate a second content compilation for the second user using the first content compilation, the second content compilation including advertising content omitted from the first content compilation when the second content compilation also includes a first one of the one or more of the plurality of contents identified by the first content compilation that are determined the second user lacks the right to access; and playout the second content compilation to the second user.
