Systems for, and methods of, displaying video information comprising: a second screen device obtaining current play position data of a video being played on a primary screen device (e.g., obtaining from the primary screen device an identification of a current play position of the video, or obtaining information to generate an acoustic fingerprint of the video); determining a current play position of the video playing on the primary screen device based upon the current play position data (e.g., identification of the current play position or the acoustic fingerprint); downloading information (e.g., video map, subtitles, moral principles, objectionable content, memorable content, performers, geographical maps, shopping, plot point, item, ratings, and trivia information) over a computer communications network into the memory of the second screen device; and displaying information on the second screen device synchronized with the contemporaneously played video on the primary screen device. |

1. A video information display method comprising: downloading, over a communications network and to a memory of a second screen device, a subset of subtitles, the subset of subtitles corresponding to preselected portions of a dialogue of a video; receiving audio information principally from a playing of the video on a primary screen device; generating an acoustic fingerprint responsive to the received audio information; establishing, responsive to the acoustic fingerprint, a synchronization to the playing of the video on the primary screen device; and displaying the subset of subtitles on the second screen device responsive to a time period offset synchronization to the video playing on the primary screen device, the time period offset synchronization being responsive to a user's time period offset preference, whereby the display of the subset of subtitles on the second screen device is intermittent and lags a contemporaneous playing of the video on the primary screen device. |
