A method performed by a first terminal is provided. The method includes identifying capabilities of the first terminal connected to at least one component device, establishing, via a server, a session associated with an augmented reality (AR) service based on the capabilities of the first terminal, performing pre-processing on 3 dimensional (3D) media data acquired by the at least one component device, and transmitting, to a second terminal, the pre-processed 3D media data.

In embodiments, the present invention provides a method and system for managing playback of content delivered to a mobile device with a pause and resume functionality. The method and system including receiving delivered content on a mobile device, initiating playback of the delivered content, pausing playback of the content being delivered to the mobile device in response to an action and resuming delivery of the content upon a request.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for media quality selection of media assets based on internet service provider data usage limits. One disclosed technique herein discusses receiving a data usage limit from an internet service provider. The data usage limit includes maximum data usage for particular user account data. A media asset is selected from a media streaming server that includes a plurality of qualities having respective data sizes (e.g., for video quality—4K, 1080p, etc.) A determination is made whether a selected data size from a selected quality of the plurality of qualities of the selected media asset exceeds remaining data of the received data usage limit. If so, a request is transmitted to the to the media streaming server to retrieve the selected media asset with a quality having a data size smaller than the respective data size.

In embodiments, the present invention provides a method and system for managing playback of content delivered to a mobile device with a pause and resume functionality. The method and system including receiving delivered content on a mobile device, initiating playback of the delivered content, pausing playback of the content being delivered to the mobile device in response to an action and resuming delivery of the content upon a request.

A web-based, online session system is provided in which a host server manages a multi-participant session. A plurality of participating devices may join the online session using a web-based interface and receive session content (e.g., video, audio, text, graphics, etc.) via the web-based interface. A user of a participating device may dynamically expand its resources/capabilities during an ongoing online session by adding accessory/supporting devices under its own participant account to the session. The added devices may communicate directly with the host server via a separate stream than the participating device. Additionally, the participating device may also transfer its complete participation in the online session to another device via the web-based interface.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for porting locally processed media data with low latency to a remote client device via various wireless links are provided. In one example embodiment, a transceiver module may include a local network interface and a controller that may receive a client control signal from a client device over a wireless local area network via the local network interface, transmit a media control signal based on the client control signal to a media device, receive media data based on the media control signal from the media device, and transmit to the client device over the wireless local area network via the local network interface client data based on the media data and a low-latency compression technique. The receipt of the media data and transmission of the client data may be accomplished with substantially no detectable latency. Additional embodiments are also provided.

An information processing device is provided that is capable of automatically setting an appropriate information processing rule in accordance with the environment of terminals and a computing device. An information processing device 100 includes: an information receiving unit 110 for receiving information from a first terminal 10-1 and a second terminal 10-2; an information processing unit 120 for processing the information received from the first terminal 10-1, conforming to an information processing rule, based on the information received from the second terminal 10-2; an information transmission unit 130 for transmitting, to a computing device 20-1, the information from the first terminal 10-1 that has been processed by the information processing unit 120; and an information processing method determination unit 211 for determining a processing method for processing the information received from the second terminal 10-2 in the information processing unit 120, based on at least one of an information processing status in the computing device 20-1 and a device status of the computing device 20-1, creating the information processing rule, and setting the created information processing rule to the information processing unit 120.

A system and method for providing electronic content to a user in a multi user content delivery system. A set of preferences are received from a first user at a preference component. This set of preferences indicates a portion of electronic content the first user desires to receive. Electronic content is received from a plurality of users by a content aggregator. This content is then aggregated. The electronic content is then modified for the user based on the received set of preferences. The modified content is then distributed or sent to the user by the content distributor.

Systems, devices, and methods for managing capabilities of a 5G media streaming (5GMS) network, including obtaining a streaming access object corresponding to 5GMS media content; obtaining a media service entry based on the streaming access object, wherein the media service entry includes a protocol identifier corresponding to the media service entry, and a service entry uniform resource locator (URL) corresponding to the media service entry; and performing at least one of uplink streaming or downlink streaming of the 5GMS media content based on the media service entry, wherein the media service entry is consistent with a 5GMS M5 interface regardless of whether the media service entry is used for uplink streaming or downlink streaming of the 5GMS media content.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a system, and a computer program product for streaming. The method includes: acquiring, during transmission of a stream, information indicating resources of a receiver of the stream available for compensating for degradation of a transmission quality of the stream; and determining at least a target transmission quality of the stream based at least on the resources of the receiver and network resources available for transmitting the stream. This solution provides a more flexible adaptive balance mechanism for streaming, and further optimizes utilization of various resources and user experience in streaming.
