A method of processing a cover page image of multimedia information, a client and an electronic device are provided. The method includes acquiring initial cover page images of N pieces of second multimedia information following first multimedia information, where the first multimedia information is displayed on a current display interface of the client, the N pieces of second multimedia information are not displayed on the current display interface of the client, and N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, performing a super-resolution processing on the initial cover page images of the N pieces of second multimedia information, to obtain super-resolution cover page images of the N pieces of second multimedia information, and displaying the super-resolution cover page images of the second multimedia information, in a case that the second multimedia information enters the current display interface.

A multidimensional system for generating a multimedia search engine is provided. A computer device identifies a plurality of independently separable aspects of a multimedia file. The computing device provides at least one independently separable aspect of the plurality of independently separable aspects as input into an object detection model. The computing device receives, from the object detection model, an identification of at least one object and a corresponding level of confidence that the object is present in the multimedia file. The computing device classifies the object as either confident or not confident, based on whether the level of confidence meets a threshold level of confidence. The computing device generates a multimedia search engine based, at least in part, on the object and the classification.

A voice command system according to a first disclosure comprises a gateway apparatus having an interface configured to receive a voice command, and a controller configured to perform a registration process of registering a speaker permitted to receive the voice command. The controller is configured to perform an authentication process of rejecting a reception of the voice command when a speaker of the voice command is not registered, and permitting a reception of the voice command when a speaker of the voice command is registered. The controller is configured to perform the authentication process for each voice command.

System and methods are provided that generate a three-dimensional model from a physical space. While a user is scanning and/or recording the physical space with a user computing device, user speech describing the physical space is recorded. A transcript is generated from the audio captured during the scan and/or image recording of the physical space. Keywords from the transcript are used to improve computer-vision object identification, which is incorporated in the three-dimensional model.

Provided are a search method and apparatus, and an electronic device and a storage medium. The method comprises: receiving a generic query search request, the generic query search request carrying a generic query term; acquiring at least one multimedia content card corresponding to the generic query term, wherein each multimedia content card corresponds to an extension tag corresponding to the generic query search request, each multimedia content card comprises information of a plurality of multimedia content sets; and presenting information of the plurality of multimedia content sets comprised in each multimedia content card of the at least one multimedia content card. Search results related to a generic query term can be clustered from various dimensions and presented, such that a user can directly find content related to a search intention of the user, thereby improving the search efficiency and shortening a search path.

Systems, devices, apparatuses, components, methods, and techniques for media content playback during travel are provided. An example method a method of generating a playlist trailer for a media playback device, the method comprising: identifying a plurality of media content items from a playlist for inclusion in a playlist trailer identifying snippets from the identified plurality of media content items; and combining the identified snippets to generate a playlist trailer.

A master recording session at a server computer corresponds to a video content stored in memory accessible by the server computer. A first device and a second device are provided access to the master recording session and the master recording session is updated responsive to receipt of an update from the first device, where the update reflects initiation of playback of the video content at a time stamp corresponding to the timeline of the video content and includes an audio input configuration for the second device. The update is provided to the second device and an audio recording is received from the second device corresponding to a portion of the video content from the time stamp, where the audio recording is recorded by the second device using the implemented audio input configuration for the second device.

Systems and methods are described for facilitating adjustment of multiple variables via a content guidance application. The method comprises generating, for display via a graphical user interface of a touchscreen, a first axis defining a first scale for a first adjustment characteristic. The method further comprises assigning to the first adjustment characteristic a plurality of first variables stored in memory. The method further comprises detecting, via the touchscreen, a touch input having a component along the first axis for adjusting the first adjustment characteristic. The method further comprises, in response to detecting the touch input, adjusting, in the memory, each of the plurality of first variables assigned to the first adjustment characteristic based on the touch input and the first scale.

Systems and methods for displaying a context image for a multimedia asset are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes a programmable processor, and a display device. In some embodiments, the programmable processor is configured to identify a first multimedia asset being broadcast in a region, determine and retrieve a first context image associated with the first multimedia asset, and direct the display device to display the first context image during the broadcast of the first multimedia asset.
