.[.The present invention provides.]. .Iadd.A system and method for providing .Iaddend.multi media video streams via high speed internet to a worldwide audience by using a specialized automation system with audio and video switching capabilities. This system provides video media streams to multiple platforms such as, cell phones, internet websites, and cable television subscribers.

In accordance with one implementation, computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for multipurpose control and networking. Some disclosed embodiments involve systems, methods, and computer readable media for dynamically connecting devices for secure communications. Some disclosed embodiments involve systems, methods, and computer readable media for configuring and providing software-defined networking solutions.

A network-based system for live media broadcasting includes a server system including processing structure configured to: receive at least one live non-WebRTC media stream; ingest the at least one live non-WebRTC media stream; transcode the at least one live non-WebRTC media stream to generate a WebRTC-compatible media stream; publish the WebRTC-compatible media stream to a WebRTC gateway of the server system using Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP); and using the WebRTC gateway of the server system, stream the WebRTC-compatible media stream to a requesting client computing device over a respective WebRTC connection for selectively mixing using the requesting client computing device. Various related systems, devices and methods are provided.

The present invention is an information processing device that performs information processing to output (produce and distribute) video content using video from multiple video sources including network cameras, the information processing device comprising: a switching means for performing switching based on video signals transferred by the transfer method used to transfer data without confirming reception by the receiving node with the transmitting node at the video source; and an information processing means that outputs (produces and distributes) video content based on information indicating which video source was switched at what time by the switching means and based on video data outputted from the video sources.

The present invention provides to a web-based software and hardware system that act together with a user device to capture an audio feed, to easily encode and add meta data to the the audio content using input from studio systems, parse the content based on its type, and to provide the means to incorporate a feed segment produced from the encoded audio feed into a secondary production which is used to provide an indexed archive of audio and on-demand broadcast content, for example, by the creation and publication of pod-casts or on-demand broadcast, which includes ad positions inserted and dynamically served.

A consumption probability metric may be generated for a media asset. An aggregated forecast predicting user consumption of a media asset is received. A plurality of probabilities, each corresponding to a user of a plurality of users, is received, each indicating how likely a respective user is to consume the media asset. A weight for the plurality of users is calculated representing a ratio of the total number of users to a number of users in the plurality of users. A disaggregated forecast predicting user consumption of a media asset is determined based on the weight for the plurality of users and the plurality of probabilities. A modification factor is computed based on the aggregated forecast and the disaggregated forecast. A metric is generated that includes a plurality of user identifiers associated with the plurality of users and a plurality of modified probabilities each modified by the modification factor.

At least one processor in a content distribution device in a multichannel video program distributor (MVPD) system receives a video feed, a plurality of triggers, and metadata from a broadcast provider system via a communication network,and determines a plurality of segments in the received video feed. The plurality of segments are determined based on the received plurality of triggers and the metadata. The processor embeds at least one content marker in at least one segment of the plurality of segments. The at least one content marker includes attribute information associated with at least one video-on-demand (VOD) content asset. The processor dynamically generates the at least one VOD content asset based on the at least one content marker, and transmits the at least one VOD content asset to at least one server communicatively coupled with the MVPD system.

At least one processor in a content distribution device in a multichannel video program distributor (MVPD) system receives a video feed, a plurality of triggers, and metadata from a broadcast provider system via a communication network,and determines a plurality of segments in the received video feed. The plurality of segments are determined based on the received plurality of triggers and the metadata. The processor embeds at least one content marker in at least one segment of the plurality of segments. The at least one content marker includes attribute information associated with at least one video-on-demand (VOD) content asset. The processor dynamically generates the at least one VOD content asset based on the at least one content marker, and transmits the at least one VOD content asset to at least one server communicatively coupled with the MVPD system.

Method and system consist of a mobile application installed on a mobile device with internet connection and a geographical positioning device; a remote hosting server configured with software and database; an onsite wireless communication hosting apparatus. The mobile application communicates with the remote hosting server and the onsite wireless communication apparatus. The remote hosting server and onsite wireless communication apparatus communicate and transfer data to one another, the remote hosting server communicates with third party databases via secured access and retrieves location related information requested by onsite users of the mobile device. Web users at anywhere may select a location displayed on a digital map over interface of a web application configured to the remote hosting server; access the same as onsite users; including data entered by location owners, received from third-party databases via secured connection, and uploaded from onsite wireless communication apparatus.

A live content distribution device that dynamically generates video-on-demand (VOD) assets for multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs), receives a live video feed, a plurality of triggers, and metadata from a broadcast provider system over a communication network. The live content distribution device is provided in a MVPD system. A plurality of segments are determined in the received live video feed based on the received plurality of triggers and metadata. One or more VOD content assets are dynamically generated based on a package for playout to one or more servers communicatively coupled with the MVPD system. The package includes one or more of the determined plurality of segments and metadata associated with the determined plurality of segments.
