AUDIO/VIDEO RECEIVING DEVICE AND WIRELESS DISPLAY SYSTEM
An Audio/Video (A/V) receiving device may include a display, a Radio Frequency (RF) receiving module configured to receive an RF packet from an A/V transmitting device, the RF receiving module including a plurality of antennas, and a microcomputer configured to obtain a distance between the A/V transmitting device and A/V receiving device and when the obtained distance is changed, display a first message indicating that a number of antennas to be turned among the plurality of antennas is changed according to the change of the distance.
DISTRIBUTED AUTOMATIC MULTICAST ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT DEVICE AND METHOD
A solution is disclosed for providing automatic multicast address assignment and conflict resolution for AV streams multicast over a networked AV system. The solution includes a device for monitoring the system for messages associated with AV streams multicast over the system and implementing a conflict resolution protocol when a conflict of multicast addresses is detected, where the conflict resolution protocol utilizes automatically randomly selecting a preliminary multicast address from a defined range of addresses.
Multi-network playback devices
A playback device includes programming for connecting to a first wireless local area network (WLAN) and storing a first set of network configuration parameters including an identifier of the first WLAN and a first security parameter for the first WLAN. The functions also include disconnecting from the first WLAN, receiving a second set of network configuration parameters including an identifier of a second WLAN and a second security parameter for the second WLAN, and storing the second set of network configuration parameters. The functions also include reconnecting to the first WLAN using the stored first set of network configuration parameters and, after reconnecting to the first WLAN, transmitting, absent user request, the second set of network configuration parameters to at least one other playback device that is connected to the first WLAN for storage on the at least one other playback device that is connected to the first WLAN.
Methods and systems for transition-coded media, measuring engagement of transition-coded media, and distribution of components of transition-coded media
Disclosed are methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for transition-coded media, measuring engagement of transition-coded media, and distribution of components of transition-coded media. For instance, the method may include: obtaining a media file; determining whether the media file includes transition-coded media; in response to determining the media file includes the transition-coded media, setting up a dynamic media environment; detecting whether a user is interacting with the transition-coded media; and in response to detecting the user is interacting with the transition-coded media, executing the transition-coded media with the dynamic media environment.
MODE SWITCHING METHOD AND DISPLAY APPARATUS
A mode switching method is applied to a display apparatus with a first scenario mode and a second scenario mode. The first scenario mode provides a first shortcut menu, and the second scenario mode provides a second shortcut menu different from the first shortcut menu. The mode switching method includes receiving a first signal source of a first external device, analyzing the first signal source to determine the first external device is matched with the first scenario mode or the second scenario mode, and displaying the first shortcut menu on a display interface of the display apparatus and hiding the second shortcut menu when the first external device is matched with the first scenario mode.
CONTENT CONTINUATION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
The method includes: A first electronic device displays a control center on a first interface, where the control center includes a device list including one or more electronic devices, and the one or more electronic devices and the first electronic device are in a same content continuation system. The first electronic device receives a first selection operation of selecting a second electronic device from the one or more electronic devices by a user. In response to the first selection operation, the first electronic device determines whether the first electronic device is a source device or a target device of a current content continuation task. If the first electronic device is the target device of the current content continuation task, the first electronic device switches content in the second electronic device to the first electronic device for continuous playing.
METHOD FOR DETECTING LIVE STREAMING JITTER, DEVICE, AND MEDIUM
Provided is a method for detecting live streaming jitter, a device, and a medium. An implementation is: calculating, for a live stream transmitted by an edge content delivery network (CDN) node in a CDN, quality information of the live stream based on a transmission frame rate and a viewer count of the live stream; calculating quality information of the edge CDN node based on the quality information of the live stream; and determining, based on the quality information of the edge CDN node, whether jitter occurs at the edge CDN node.
Display device and control method thereof
A display device includes a display; a memory storing at least one instruction; a communicator configured to communicate with a mobile device via a BLE communication network; and a controller including a processor configured to execute the at least one instruction stored in the memory. The processor is further configured to execute the at least one instruction to manage BLE identification information when the BLE identification information for identifying the mobile device connected via the BLE communication network is received from the mobile device during a normal mode in which an ambient service is being executed, and the communicator is further configured to, based on the BLE identification information received from the mobile device after a sleep mode is started, determine whether to wake up the controller based on whether information corresponding to the BLE identification information is stored in the communicator.
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.
NETWORKED DEVICES, SYSTEMS, & METHODS FOR ASSOCIATING PLAYBACK DEVICES BASED ON SOUND CODES
In one aspect, a playback device is provided that is configured to identify a trigger event indicating a request to associate the playback device with another playback device. Based on identifying the trigger event, the playback device is configured to create a first sound code based on a first sound specimen detected by the playback device. After identifying the trigger event, the playback device is configured to receive from the other playback device a sound object and based on receiving the sound object, identify a second sound code. The playback device is also configured to, based on the first sound code and the second sound code, determine that it and the other playback device have a spatial relationship. Based on that determination, the playback device is configured to cause it and the other playback device to be associated in accordance with the indicated request.
