20230283815 · 2023-09-07 ·

A method includes that a media asset server receives an identifier and a new-language file of a target video and converts the new-language file into a new-language medium file. The media asset server finds a first index file based on the identifier of the target video, and obtains a second index file based on a storage address of the new-language medium file on the media asset server. The media asset server sends the new-language medium file and the second index file to a content delivery server. The content delivery server replaces the storage address of the new-language medium file on the media asset server in the second index file with a storage address of the new-language medium file on the content delivery server to obtain a third index file. The content delivery server generates a first URL of the target video.

System and method for delivering alerts

A method of communicating an alert includes: encoding data received from a plurality of sources by a central content controller (CCC) and determining existence of one or more alerts. If no alerts exist, the encoded data is assigned as streams to subchannels. For existing alerts, a market area (MA) is determined and the alert is assigned as a stream to a data subchannel and the encoded data is assigned as streams to remaining subchannels. For each MA without an applicable alert, the encoded data is assigned as streams to the subchannels. The assigned data is transmitted to regional controllers (RCs) for broadcasting to the associated MAs.

Method and system for implementing an elastic cloud-based voice search utilized by set-top box (STB) clients

Systems, and methods are described to provide voice search in an elastic cloud environment communicating with a set-top box (STB) by receiving by a voice cloud search server pulse-code modulation (PCM) audio packets transmitted from the STB; sending the PCM audio packets to a natural language processing (NLP) service for converting to text; sending the text sets to an elastic voice cloud search server for querying an electronic program guide (EPG) service, channel and program data associated with the text sets wherein the EPG service to at least return identified channel and program data; in response to an identified return of channel and television program data, sending sets of text to a search service for performing an elastic search for related data from a plurality of different search sources and returning search results and error codes to a requester.

METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR IMPLEMENTING AN ELASTIC CLOUD BASED VOICE SEARCH USING A THIRD-PARTY SEARCH PROVIDER

Systems and methods are described to provide voice search in an elastic cloud environment communicating with a set-top box (STB) by receiving by a voice cloud search server pulse-code modulation (PCM) audio packets transmitted from the STB; sending the PCM audio packets to a natural language processing (NLP) service for converting to text; sending the text sets to an elastic voice cloud search server for querying an electronic program guide (EPG) service, channel and program data associated with the text set wherein the EPG service to at least return identified channel and program data; in response to an identified return of channel and television program data, sending sets of text to a third-party search service for performing an independent search for related data and returning search results of video and image content which is then stripped of dynamic scripts to return to the STB.

INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

There are provided an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program. The information processing apparatus includes a generating unit configured to generate a management file which stores information regarding object selection information for selecting object audio data in accordance with a display state of an image, and a transmitting unit configured to transmit the management file.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR NAVIGATING AT A CLIENT DEVICE SELECTED FEATURES ON A NON-DYNAMIC IMAGE PAGE FROM AN ELASTIC VOICE CLOUD SERVER IN COMMUNICATION WITH A THIRD-PARTY SEARCH SERVICE

Systems, and methods are described for navigating non-dynamic pages at a client device served up from voice search requests by selecting a feature on the image page by a user request for navigating the feature viewed on the image page wherein the feature selected has an appearance of a dynamic feature when served up on the display wherein the user request selects a location on the image page; identifying the feature by the voice cloud server by location data of a selected location on the page; executing a feature request on a corresponding page which contains dynamic script at the voice cloud server to receive a linked page from a third-party search service; and removing dynamic scripts, at the voice cloud search server, of the linked page for serving up as an image page of the linked page at the client device.

The video message generation method includes: receiving a comment instruction for a video; determining a target frame corresponding to the comment instruction in the video; obtaining input comment content of the target frame; and generating a video message based on the video, the target frame, and the comment content of the target frame.

Method and system for navigating at a client device selected features on a non-dynamic image page from an elastic voice cloud server in communication with a third-party search service

Systems, and methods are described for navigating non-dynamic pages at a client device served up from voice search requests by selecting a feature on the image page by a user request for navigating the feature viewed on the image page wherein the feature selected has an appearance of a dynamic feature when served up on the display wherein the user request selects a location on the image page; identifying the feature by the voice cloud server by location data of a selected location on the page; executing a feature request on a corresponding page which contains dynamic script at the voice cloud server to receive a linked page from a third-party search service; and removing dynamic scripts, at the voice cloud search server, of the linked page for serving up as an image page of the linked page at the client device.

Methods and systems for implementing an elastic cloud based voice search using a third-party search provider

Systems and methods are described to provide voice search in an elastic cloud environment communicating with a set-top box (STB) by receiving by a voice cloud search server pulse-code modulation (PCM) audio packets transmitted from the STB; sending the PCM audio packets to a natural language processing (NLP) service for converting to text; sending the text sets to an elastic voice cloud search server for querying an electronic program guide (EPG) service, channel and program data associated with the text set wherein the EPG service to at least return identified channel and program data; in response to an identified return of channel and television program data, sending sets of text to a third-party search service for performing an independent search for related data and returning search results of video and image content which is then stripped of dynamic scripts to return to the STB.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR LINKING SEGMENTS OF MEDIA GUIDANCE DATA FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION OF MEMORY CONSTRAINED DEVICES

Methods and systems for generating segmented media asset identifiers are described herein. The method includes retrieving a first media guidance data segment of a plurality of media guidance data segments. Each segment of the plurality of media guidance data segments includes a plurality of media asset identifiers and is navigationally linked to at least one other media guidance data segment. The method further involves generating for display the media asset identifiers of the first media guidance data segment. While generating for display the media asset identifiers of the first media guidance data segment, a first user input corresponding to navigating to the media asset identifiers of a linked media guidance data segment is received. In response to receiving the first user input, the linked media guidance data segment is retrieved, and the media asset identifiers of the linked media guidance data segment are generated for display.
