Systems and methods are provided for receiving a request to generate a media overlay corresponding to a home of a first user, and for generating the media overlay corresponding to the home of the first user using media content received in the request. The systems and methods further provide for associating, with the media overlay, a location of the home of the first user and a selection of users to grant permission to access the media overlay corresponding to the home of the first user. The systems and methods further provide for determining whether a second user and a location corresponding to the second computing device trigger access to the media overlay and providing the media overlay to the second computing device, based on determining that the second user and location corresponding to the second computing device trigger access to the media overlay.

An apparatus for receiving a broadcast signal, includes a receiver configured to receive the broadcast signal including physical layer signaling data, signaling data, content data and service guide information, wherein the signaling data is included in a signal frame indicated by the physical layer signaling data, wherein the signaling data includes mapping information between a service and a PLP, and information supporting channel scanning and service acquisition, wherein the service guide information includes a service fragment having information about the broadcast service and a content fragment having information about content data of the broadcast service, wherein the content fragment further includes a content-level PrivateExt element having component information of the content data, wherein the component information includes information for a component in the broadcast service, and wherein the component is one of a video component, an audio component, and a closed caption component (CC).

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for determining at least one valid mood for a collection of media content items of a media library are provided.

There is included a method and apparatus comprising computer code configured to cause a processor or processors to perform providing a media presentation description (MPD) event and media segments of video content to be streamed to a client, controlling the client to provide a user interface based on the MPD event and comprising a plurality of selection choices and interactive data for each of the selection choices, and updating MPD data based on at least one selection from the selection choices through the user interface.

A system is provided for publishing a disparate live media output stream manifest that includes media segments corresponding to key events. A live production and playout system of disparate sub-systems is synchronized to a reference clock. A timecode from the reference clock is used as a reference time to log content related to key events that occur within the live production and playout system. A live event logging system is synchronized to the reference clock same as the live production and playout system. Based on location of the live event logging system, a time offset is introduced to compensate for a delay. When delay is variable, the reference clock is decoded from a live input stream to associate each key event with a corresponding timecode. Based on a programming schedule comprising the key events that occurred in the live input stream, the disparate live media output stream manifest is published.

One aspect of this disclosure relates a video processing device comprising a processor for processing a manifest file for video streaming for a user. The manifest file comprises at least a plurality of positions defined for a scene that are associated with pre-rendered omnidirectional or volumetric video segments stored on a server system. The manifest file may also contain a plurality of resource locators for retrieving omnidirectional or volumetric video segments from the server system. Each resource locator may be associated with a position defined for the scene. The video processing device may be configured to associate a position of the user with a first position for the scene in the manifest file to retrieve a first omnidirectional or volumetric video segment associated with the first position using a first resource locator from the manifest file.

According to embodiments, the invention provides a method for encapsulating partitioned timed media data comprising timed samples, comprising in turn subsamples, the timed samples being grouped into groups, the method comprising: obtaining spatial tracks, each spatial track comprising at least one subsample of a first timed sample and one corresponding subsample of the other timed samples, the corresponding subsamples being located at the same spatial position in its own timed sample as the at least one subsample; creating a base track referencing at least some of the spatial tracks, the base track comprising reconstruction instructions, each of the reconstruction instructions being associated with a group of timed samples, enabling generating a portion of a bit-stream from sub-samples of spatial tracks, that belong to a same group of timed samples; and independently encapsulating each of the tracks in a least one media file.

Methods and apparatus to collect distributed user information for media impressions and search terms are disclosed. An example method includes accessing, from a media device, a first identifier and a search term at a first server, the first identifier corresponding to at least one of the media device or a user of the media device, the search term associated with a search request, generating a second identifier based on the first identifier, sending the second identifier and the search term from the first server to a data collection server to facilitate the data collection server to logging the search request, and receiving user information associated with the search request from a database proprietor based on the second identifier.

Both a conventional receiver and an HDR-compatible receiver well perform electro-optical conversion processing on transmission video data obtained by using an HDR opto-electronic transfer characteristic. High dynamic range opto-electronic conversion is performed on high dynamic range video data to obtain the transmission video data. Encoding processing is performed on this transmission video data to obtain a video stream. A container of a predetermined format including this video stream is transmitted. Metadata information indicating a standard dynamic range opto-electronic transfer characteristic is inserted into a layer of the video stream, and metadata information indicating a high dynamic range opto-electronic transfer characteristic is inserted into at least one of the layer of the video stream and a layer of the container.
