Systems, methods, and devices implement video streaming. Methods include receiving video data from a video source, the video data comprising at least one video frame, and determining a plurality of store parameters associated with a store operation and a plurality of fetch parameters associated with a fetch operation for a portion of the video data, wherein the plurality of store parameters and the plurality of fetch parameters identify whether a fetch unit or a store unit should be stalled. Methods also include implementing a store operation in a buffer for a designated number of lines of the video data based on the plurality of store parameters. Methods additionally include implementing a fetch operation from the buffer for the designated number of lines of the video data based on the plurality of fetch parameters.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for determining whether a media asset intended to be recorded is actually transmitted at the time and on the source of a scheduled higher-priority recording. Should the intended media asset not be transmitted in a desirable way, or not transmitted at all, the system will instead make a recording of a lower-priority recording that would not have been made because of a conflict. The systems and methods described herein, before making a higher-priority recording, obtain a sample of the media asset included in a received transmission at a scheduled time and compare it to content associated with the media asset scheduled for recording to determine whether to record the received transmission.

A computer-implemented includes streaming a first segment of multimedia data to a buffer on a first computing device at a first bitrate, wherein the first segment includes a first set of video frames encoded at a first resolution. The computer-implemented method further includes streaming a second segment of the multimedia data to the buffer on the first computing device at a second bitrate, wherein the second segment includes a second set of video frames encoded at a second resolution. The computer-implemented method further includes determining that a first predetermined threshold is reached. The computer-implemented method further includes streaming, in response to determining that the first predetermined threshold is reached, a third segment of multimedia data to the buffer on the first computing device, wherein the third segment includes a first set of pixels that are logically related to the second set of video frames of the second segment.

Disclosed are a signal processing device and an image display apparatus including the same. The signal processing device comprises an equalizer configured to receive an input signal through a channel and equalize the received input signal and a control circuit configured to determine an equalizer control code in response to a first signal output from the equalizer and output the determined equalizer control code to the equalizer, wherein the equalizer may equalize the received input signal based on the equalizer control code. Accordingly, there is an effect of effectively adapting the equalizer even when a channel environment changes.

Systems and methods for performing trick play functionality using trick play streams during adaptive bitrate streaming in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. One embodiment includes requesting a video container index from a video container file containing a video stream from a plurality of alternative streams of video; requesting at least one portion of the video stream using at least one entry from the video container index; decoding the at least one portion of the video stream; receiving at least one user instruction to perform a visual search of the media; requesting a trick play container index from a trick play container file containing a trick play stream; requesting at least one frame of video from the at least one trick play stream; and decoding and displaying the at least one frame of video from the trick play stream.

A signal processing device includes an interface, which includes a demodulation processing unit that executes demodulation processing, a processing unit that executes demux processing or the like, and a sync signal line, a valid signal line, a clock signal line, and a data signal line disposed between the demodulation processing unit and the processing unit, that transmits data signals as two-bit parallel transmission.

Systems and methods, to efficiently prepare for live and stored file content, implement one or more warm inputs, which actively ingest and demux content, but do not actively decode the content until an input switch is commanded. Each warm input can cache a most recent instantaneous decoder refresh and subsequent reference frames (I-frames and P-frames). Upon an input switch being commanded, the subject input commences decoding of such preserved frames. The formerly-warm input then acts as a hot input (decoding every frame) until the input switch completes. The use of warm inputs, which avoid the decoding stage, reduces computational resource use, allows preparation of all inputs by default, and permits metrics, status reports, and thumbnails to be generated regarding non-active inputs.

Techniques are described for expanding and/or improving the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 television protocol in robustly delivering the next generation broadcast television services. In a boundary region between first and second broadcast stations in which a receiver can pick up signals from both stations, a primary tuner presents a demanded service while a secondary tuner scans for duplicate transmissions of the service, and if one is found, the version with the better quality metrics may be presented.

An example display device includes a display; a memory configured to store a plurality of applications that provide a content playback service; and a processor configured to: store information on the plurality of applications, information on a plurality of contents, and information on a point of time when playback is stopped in the memory when the playback of the plurality of contents played through the plurality of applications is stopped, and display a user interface (UI) screen for playing the plurality of contents from the point of time when the playback is stopped on the display using the information stored in the memory, when an application that provides a continuous content playback service is executed.

Provided is a tuner device including: a box-shaped metal tuner case; a plurality of connectors which are attached to one surface of the tuner case; a plurality of connection pins for signal transmission, the pins being provided on the other surface of the tuner case; and at least one foot electrode which is provided in the vicinity of the connection pins and is grounded.
