Methods and systems for providing software applications on a client device with dynamic control over low-latency mode (LLM) operations of the client device. The client device may monitor downlink data packets of a client software application operating on the client device to detect trigger events. The client device may determine operating parameters of the modem based on a detected trigger event and dynamically adjust the low-latency mode of the modem based on the detect trigger event or the determined operating parameters.

Systems and methods are described herein for generating a watch schedule and compressed series for a user for a series that is expected to become unavailable. Availability data indicating when a content series will become unavailable is received and compared to user progression habits. If the content series will become unavailable before the user will complete it, a watch schedule may be offered to the user. If the user subsequently falls behind on this watch schedule, a compressed version of the content series may be offered to the user.

A display device and a method of controlling the same are provided. The display device may include: a memory comprising one or more executable instructions, and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory, wherein the processor may be configured to: monitor a use state of the display device, based on at least one of an individual usage indicator configured for a current viewing mode among a plurality of viewing modes of the display device, and a universal usage indicator configured to be used for the plurality of viewing modes identify a current power saving level among a plurality of power saving levels of a phased power saving mode of the display device determine a next power saving level based on the use state and the current power saving level, and apply the next power saving level to the display device.

A playback device including a processor that executes program instructions such that the playback device is configured to receive first audio data representing audio content, generate and output second audio data based on the first audio data, and at least in part while generating and outputting the second audio data, generate and output a control signal associated with the second audio data to vary a supply voltage for an audio amplifier. The playback device also includes a switch-mode power supply (SMPS) that varies the supply voltage for the audio amplifier based on the control signal. The playback device also includes an amplifier circuitry comprising the audio amplifier powered by the supply voltage from the SMPS. The amplifier circuitry is configured to receive the second audio data and generate an analog audio signal to drive a speaker based on the second audio data.

A display apparatus includes presence detection circuitry for detecting an individual in proximity to the display apparatus; a display for displaying video content and a user interface; a processor in communication with the user input circuitry, the display, and the search history database; and non-transitory computer readable media in communication with the processor that stores instruction code. The instruction code is executed by the processor and causes the processor to: a) determine, from the presence detection circuitry, a user in proximity of the display apparatus; b) determine one or more program types associated with the user; c) determine available programs that match the predicted one or more programs; and d) update the user interface to depict a listing of one or more of the available programs that match the predicted one or more programs.

Methods and systems for saving resources when outputting a media asset such as a video are provided. The media asset is split into a first portion with a first importance and a second portion with the second importance. The first portion is displayed with a first set of output parameters (e.g., resolution, bit rate, frame rate, display size) and the second portion is displayed with a second set of output parameters that correspond to a lower quality than the first set of output parameters (e.g., a lower resolution, a lower bit rate, a lower frame rate, a lower display size).

Disclosed herein is a dynamic backup battery for updating the firmware of a media device. The media device includes a memory device that is electrically coupled to a port. The port of the media device is configured to receive a first power. The media device also includes a battery that is electrically coupled to the port and is configured to supply a second power to the port. The media device includes a processor electrically coupled to the battery and is configured to monitor the power level of the first power received and based on the power level of the first power received falling below a threshold value, the battery supplies a second power to the port of the media device. The processor is further configured to activate a low power mode, detect an event while in low power mode, deactivate low power mode, perform a task, and reactivate low power mode.

Technologies are provided for reporting engaged impressions of directed content. Some embodiments include a computing device that can initiate a screensaver session. The computing device also can cause presentation of a directed content asset on a display device functionally coupled to the computing device. The computing device can then update a queue to add a record of an impression of the directed content asset, where the queue is retained in a memory device of the computing device. The computing device can receive a signal indicative of user activity. The computing device can send, to an attribution server device, first data identifying one or more directed content assets corresponding to one or more records of the queue.

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.

Disclosed is a display device. The display device of the present disclosure comprises: a carrier having a built-in battery and a display panel driven by receiving power from the batter, wherein the carrier has a power reception unit for charging the battery and a sensing unit for sensing the remaining battery amount; a cradle which approaches or moves away from the carrier, wherein the cradle has a power transmission unit for providing power to the power reception unit; and a control unit for controlling the distance between the carrier and the cradle and whether the power transmission unit operates, on the basis of the information about the remaining battery amount obtained from the sensing unit.
