Zusammenfassung:Aspects of server-side advertisement injection are described. In one embodiment, a computing device includes logic that receives a request for content from a client device. The logic identifies a targeted advertisement for a user of the client device based on information in the request. The logic further obtains a manifest file associated with the requested content, generates a second manifest file based on a combination of the first manifest file and the targeted advertisement, and transmits the second manifest file to the client device. Because the second manifest file includes references to clips of the content and the targeted advertisement, the client device can play back the content and advertisement without the necessary processing overhead required to manage client-side buffering and insertion of the advertisement within the content.
