System and method for live video feed
A server, system, and method generate a live video feed. The method is performed at a server connected to a computer network. The method includes receiving an indication of a predetermined type of action during a live event. The method includes generating a first video feed associated with the predetermined type of action, the first video feed being distinct from a broadcast feed of the live event. The method includes identifying a user device that is to receive the first video feed based on predetermined rules. The method includes determining whether the user device is prepared to receive the first video feed. When the user device is prepared, the method includes transmitting the first video feed to the user device for an automatically playback on the user device to display a video of the predetermined type of action currently occurring during the live event.
Electronic devices and corresponding methods for redirecting event notifications in multi-person content presentation environments
An electronic device includes a communication device electronically communicating with a content presentation companion device operating as a primary display for the electronic device and at least one augmented reality companion device. One or more sensors detect multiple persons within an environment while the content presentation companion device operates as the primary display. One or more processors redirect an event notification intended for presentation on the primary display to the augmented reality companion device while both the content presentation companion device operates as the primary display for the electronic device and the multiple persons are within the environment of the electronic device. When communicating with two augmented reality companion devices, the one or more processors can direct subtitles associated with a content offering, sometimes in different languages, to at least a first augmented reality companion device and a second augmented reality companion device.
Methods, systems, and apparatuses to respond to voice requests to play desired video clips in streamed media based on matched close caption and sub-title text
Methods, Systems, and Apparatuses are described to implement voice search in media content for requesting media content of a video clip of a scene contained in the media content streamed to the client device; for capturing the voice request for the media content of the video clip to display at the client device wherein the streamed media content is a selected video streamed from a video source; for applying a NLP solution to convert the voice request to text for matching to a set of one or more words contained in at least close caption text of the selected video; for associating matched words to close caption text with a start index and an end index of the video clip contained in the selected video; and for streaming the video clip to the client device based on the start index and the end index associated with matched closed caption text.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECONFIGURATION OF AN ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM CONTROLLING DEVICE
An entertainment device initiates a configuration process of a controlling device in response to a change in an audio visual entertainment system configuration in which at least one of a plurality devices is connected to the entertainment device as an audio and/or visual source and at least one of the plurality of devices is connected to the entertainment device as an audio and/or visual output destination for the entertainment device.
SUBTITLE SPLITTER
Systems and methods are provided for presenting subtitles in association with a composite video. The systems and methods include a facility for uploading a subtitle file having the full subtitles information for the entire composite video. The uploaded subtitle file is then split to generate video content item subtitles files that correspond to video content items in the composite video.
MEDIA RESOURCE PLAYING AND TEXT RENDERING METHOD, APPARATUS AND DEVICE AND STORAGE MEDIUM
The present disclosure provides a media resource playing and text rendering method, apparatus and device and a storage medium. The method comprises: determining, on the basis of a first data box type or a first group type, a region of interest of an omnidirectional video and at least one media resource associated with the region of interest; and playing at least one media resource associated with the region of interest.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ASSOCIATING CONTEXT TO SUBTITLES DURING LIVE EVENTS
Systems and methods are provided herein for providing context to users who access video conferences late. This may be accomplished by a system receiving an audio segment of a video conference and generating a subtitle corresponding to the audio segment. The system may determine a summary relating to the audio segment and then display the subtitle, summary, and video conference on a device. The system allows a user, who accesses a video conference late, to quickly and accurately understand the current video conference discussion, improving the user's experience and increasing the productivity of the video conference.
DISPLAY INSERTS, OVERLAYS, AND GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACES FOR MULTIMEDIA SYSTEMS
A disclosed digital media device operational at user premises to receive media signals from a media source for presentation via endpoint devices such as a television display. The digital media device can include gateway and digital media management functionality and can be referred to as a gateway and digital media device. The device offers application services obtained over a wide area network and a user premises network. The digital media device may form a composite signal from the media signal and application service information, for example, for a composite audio and/or video signal for television type presentation to the user. The digital media device may receive a selection signal based on the presentation, for transmission to the application service provider device or to the media source. The media device also offers a GUI presenting a moveable arrangement of icons for selectively accessing application services.
CAPTION SERVICE SYSTEM FOR REMOTE SPEECH RECOGNITION
The present invention provides a caption service system for remote speech recognition, which provides caption service for the hearing impaired. This system includes a speaker and a live broadcast equipment at A, a listener-typist and a computer at B, a hearing impaired and a live screen at C, and an automatic speech recognition (ASR) caption server at D. Connect the live broadcast equipment, the computer, the live screen and the ASR caption server with a network. The speaker's audio is sent to the automatic speech recognition (ASR) caption server to be converted into text, which is corrected by the listener-typist, and then the text caption is sent to the live screen of the hearing impaired together with the speaker's video and audio, so that the hearing impaired can see the text caption spoken by the speaker.
Method for collaborative comments or metadata annotation of video
A logger or annotator views video in a window or user interface (UI) of a computing device and enters time-stamped metadata or commentary; that metadata or commentary is then automatically displayed on a timeline or other time-based index in a different window or user interface of a second computing device used by a viewer or editor of that video. The metadata or commentary is represented by a marker or icon appearing on a timeline displayed in the window or user interface of a second computing device, and the metadata or commentary is shown when the viewer or editor selects that marker or icon.
