Methods and systems provide synchronized sharing of multimedia between multiple devices. The multiple devices may form an ad-hoc network for sharing of multimedia. In an embodiment, group members may have playlist manipulation privileges such as pausing, rewinding, fast forwarding, or adding tracks to the playlist. A system may stream or distribute content according to the shared playlist. Playback may be synchronized for group members so that everyone is exposed to a same part of the content as the same time.

Techniques of streaming data processing for hybrid online meetings are disclosed herein. In one example, a method includes receiving, at the remote server, a video stream captured by a camera in the conference room. The video stream captures images of multiple local participants of an online meeting. The method also includes determining identities of the captured images of the multiple local participants in the received video stream using meeting information of the online meeting and generating a set of individual video streams each corresponding to one of the multiple local participants. The set of individual video streams can then be transmitted to the second computing device corresponding to a remote participant of the online meeting as if the multiple local participants are virtually joining the online meeting.

A method utilized in a wireless device used to wirelessly receive and play audio information includes: receiving a data packet stream transmitted from an audio source; monitoring a data amount of at least one buffer of a memory of the wireless device; and tuning an audio clock frequency dedicated for playing audio samples if the data amount of the at least one buffer deviates from a specific data amount level.

Embodiments of a system and method for providing DRX enhancements in LTE systems are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a system control module is provided for controlling communications via a communications interface. A processor is coupled to the system control module and is arranged to implement an inactivity timer and an on-duration timer for determining an active time for monitoring subframes on the physical downlink control channel for control signals, the processor further monitoring subframes after the active time.

A method performed by a programmed processor of an in-ear headphone that is to be worn by a user. The method obtains, over a wireless communication link and via a first wireless connection that uses an accessory profile, a first request, from an audio source device, to start a measurement process. In response to obtaining the request, the method 1) establishes, over the link, a second wireless connection that uses an audio distribution profile between the headphone and the source device, 2) obtains, via the second wireless connection, an audio signal for driving a speaker of the headphone to output sound, 3) responsive to the outputted sound, determining a fit parameter, and 4) transmitting the fit parameter to the source device via the first wireless connection.
