A distributed video management system for distributed processing and storage of captured video data. The distributed video management system includes a plurality of video cameras that each communicate video data to a respective one of a plurality of camera nodes. Each camera node includes a camera manager for processing video data received at the camera node. The camera nodes are in operative communication with storage resources for storage of the video data in a logical storage volume for the system according to a storage policy. The storage policy may include multiple phases with data pruning for controlled reduction of the size of video data stored on disk. The distributed system may also generate and maintain a ledger or database regarding the captured and stored video data to correlate the video data with system metadata and/or analytical metadata regarding the video data.

A method of processing media content in Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Network Based Media Processing (NBMP) includes obtaining a plurality of tasks for processing the media content, providing an interface between an NBMP workflow manager and a cloud manager by providing an NBMP Link application program interface (API), which links the plurality of tasks together, identifying an amount of network resources to be used for processing the media content, by using the NBMP Link API, and processing the media content in accordance with the identified amount of network resources.

A method for providing media content within a media distribution network. The method comprises transforming source media content into an interim format, thereby providing transformed content. Furthermore, the method comprises storing the transformed content on at least one core storage unit. In addition, the method comprises receiving a request for the source media content from a client. The method further comprises encoding the transformed content or intermediate coded content derived therefrom into encoded content suitable for transmission over a core network and/or an edge network, as well as sending the encoded content via the core network and/or the edge network to the client.

Techniques for neutralizing malicious malware embedded in a media item being sent to a user equipment (UE) are discussed herein. A network device may receive (e.g., intercept) a medial file in transit via a wireless communication network being sent to a UE. The media file may include some type of perceptible content (e.g., audio, video, image data, etc.) as well as malware embedded in the media file. The network device may generate a transcoded media file based on the received media file that includes the perceptible content while neutralizing the malware.

A method, apparatus, and system for detecting a video bitstream, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are disclosed. The method may include: receiving a first feature value generated by a source node which transmits a video bitstream, where the first feature value is feature information of the video bitstream generated by the source node according to a preset rule; receiving a second feature value generated by another node which transmits the video bitstream, where the second feature value is feature information of the video bitstream generated by the another node according to the preset rule; determining whether the first feature value is consistent with the second feature value via comparison; and generating an alarm in response to a comparison result that the first feature value is inconsistent with the second feature value.

The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program, which enable processing to be performed by absorbing a protocol difference when data is exchanged using different protocols. A first processing unit that processes data with a first device that performs identification of content; and a second processing unit that processes data with a second device that performs reproduction of content, and processes data with the first processing unit, are provided. Identification of content is performed based on ACR (Automatic Content Recognition), for example, the first device is an ACR server, and the first processing unit is able to work as an ACR client that communicates with each of a plurality of ACR servers that performs ACR using a different protocol. The present technology is applicable to a protocol conversion gateway.

Systems, methods, and media are disclosed for propagating video streams based on geographical proximity and required transmission latency. A first video stream is received from a first presenting client device at a first origin video server connected to at least one other origin video server forming a mesh network. The first video stream is relayed to at least a second origin video server from the first presenting client device. The first video stream is transmitted from the second origin video server to an edge video server. The first video stream is received from the second origin video server by one or more edge video servers. The first video stream is broadcast to a plurality of participant client devices. A second video stream is received from a second presenting client device. The second video stream is transmitted via the second origin video server to the plurality of participant client devices.

The network device may generate a transcoded media file based on the received media file that includes the perceptible content while neutralizing the malware.

An electronic device receives a request, from a first device of a host user, to initiate a first shared playback session for the first device and one or more additional devices. The electronic device streams media content from a first playback queue to the first device and to the one or more additional devices, the first playback queue including one or more media content items corresponding to the first shared playback session. The electronic device determines that the first device of the host user has left the first shared playback session and, in response, maintains the first playback queue to be accessed by the one or more additional devices. After the host user has left the first shared playback session, the electronic device provides one or more media content items from the first playback queue to at least one of the one or more additional devices.

A method for verifying a digital signature in a video data segment generated by a video delivery chain comprises: obtaining the video data segment comprising encoded image frames and a plurality of node device datasets associated with respective labels; wherein one or more node device datasets include respective digital signatures; wherein the one or more node device datasets comprises a first node device dataset which includes a first digital signature generated by a first node device based on a first number of node device datasets that have been last added to the video data segment before the first node device dataset; locating the labels; identifying , using the labels, the first number of node device datasets; and verifying the first digital signature. The application also discloses a method of adding a digital signature to a video data segment.
