A cable distribution system that includes a head end connected to a plurality of customer devices through a transmission network that includes a remote fiber node that converts digital data to analog data suitable for the plurality of customer devices. The remote fiber node includes a processor. The remote fiber node receives a software image containing (i) a hardware image, (ii) a primary boot loader, (iii) a kernel, (iv) a software dataplane for a dataplane, and (v) software applications for a control plane. Based upon the file name of the software image selectively using at least some of (i) a hardware image, (ii) a primary boot loader, (iii) a kernel, (iv) a software dataplane for a dataplane, and (v) software applications for a control plane, in resetting the remote physical device.

A method of initializing, provisioning, and managing a cable modem and a customer premise equipment device includes sending a customized configuration file to the cable modem. The configuration file contains service provisioning information and further includes information indicative of a network address type for the customer premise equipment device. A message is passed from the cable modem to the customer premise equipment device indicative of the network address type. The customer premise equipment device is provided with a network address in accordance with the network address type indicated in the message. In this way, the customer premise equipment device knows what kind of address to obtain, and excessive transactions are avoided.

An electronic apparatus configured to wirelessly communicate with an external terminal includes a control unit configured to perform a first control for transferring the electronic apparatus from a standby state to an operating state, and a second control for instructing the electronic apparatus in the operating state to perform a specific operation, and a measurement unit configured to measure a communication time required for a wireless communication with the external terminal in the operating state and the standby state. The control unit sets a first threshold and a second threshold smaller than the first threshold as thresholds for the communication time, and performs the first control when the communication time is smaller than the first threshold in the standby state and the second control when the communication time is smaller than the second threshold in the operating state.

The present technology relates to a receiving device, a receiving method, a signal processing device, and a signal processing method that enable presentation of emergency alert information more appropriately.

Provided is a receiving device including: a receiving part that receives a broadcast signal; and a processing part that processes the broadcast signal that has been received, in which the receiving part instructs the processing part in a standby state to start on the basis of emergency alert start information included in the broadcast signal that has been received, and in a case of being instructed by the receiving part to start, the processing part controls presentation of emergency alert information on the basis of signaling including the emergency alert information acquired from the broadcast signal that has been received, and receiving setting information related to a receiving setting of the emergency alert information set by a user. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a television receiver.

An image transmission system includes an image transmitting device coupled to a computer, and an image receiving device coupled to a projector, and transmits image information from the image transmitting device to the image receiving device via wireless communication. The image receiving device detects a state of the wireless communication by the image transmitting device, outputs a first control signal turning on a power of the projector to the projector when detecting that the wireless communication is started, receives the image information transmitted from the image transmitting device, and outputs the received image information to the projector.

The present invention provides a video switching method based on multi-channel decoding and comprising: starting the intelligent device to accomplish an initialization operation of a system file; closing the display of an image layer, decoding and displaying an obtained boot video on the video layer; after a system desktop launcher is started, displaying a main interface on the image layer in a transparent form; after a system is started, the intelligent device creates and displays a display layer on the image layer, wherein a display area of the display layer is smaller than that of the image layer; and decoding and displaying remotely obtained video data on the display layer. The invention avoids the issue of waiting for the loading of the video data of the online video for playing after the boot video ends, resulting in a relatively long waiting time and lowering the user experience.

Methods and systems are provided for a transportation vehicle. One method includes enabling by a processor, a night mode for a seat device of an in-flight entertainment system (IFE) on an aircraft based on a night mode trigger; displaying by the processor, during the night mode, a wake-up user interface on the seat device for a passenger, when a seat device monitor backlight has turned on after the backlight was turned off, or a seat device backlight timer has triggered, where a brightness of the wake-up user interface is lower than a brightness of a default user interface of the seat device; and enabling by the processor a first set of functions of the seat device accessible from the wake-up user interface, the first set of functions being less than a second set of functions accessible from the default user-interface.

A TV awakening method based on speech recognition, smart TV and storage medium. By setting a standby state of the smart TV to the standby state of screen being off without powering off, the user's speech can be received and recognized in real time to wake up and control the smart TV, and speech recognition has been efficiently applied, smart turning-on and turning-off in real time are realized, and diversified requirements of the user are met.

A receiver (20) includes a processing unit (22) that processes a received signal including a plurality of frames, a section identification unit (25) that identifies a first section being a bootstrap in each of the frames based on the received signal, and a control unit (26) that operates the processing unit (22) in the first section of the frame and does not operate the processing unit (22) in a second section of the frame different from the first section during a standby state.
