Techniques described herein may involve modification of playback based on the proximity of a user to a playback device. An example technique involves a device determining that a listener is within a given proximity of a first playback device and based on determining that the listener is within the given proximity of the first playback device, causing the first playback device to begin playback of first media and causing a second playback device to modify playback of second media.

Provided are a method and an apparatus for lyric video display, an electronic device, and a computer-readable medium. The method includes: acquiring multimedia data to be displayed, the multimedia data including audio data and lyrics; determining a target time point, and acquiring a target lyric fragment corresponding to the target time point in the lyrics; and displaying the target lyric fragment in combination with a preset background, and playing a part of the audio data corresponding to the target lyric fragment.

Altering messaging according to sentiment analysis by providing a baseline messaging tree including topics arranged according to a sentiment score, providing speaker prompts according to the baseline messaging tree, receiving real-time audience sentiment feedback during a messaging presentation, and adjusting the speaker prompts according to the baseline messaging tree and the real-time audience sentiment feedback.

The present invention relates to a portable audio content device such as a USB flash drive with pre-loaded audio content. The device is compatible with the USB ports of music/audio systems of vehicles and enables playing audio without a Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, satellite, or internet connection. The device has a flash memory for loading audio content and a USB interface for inserting into the USB port of a music system. The device has a housing for accommodating flash memory, a memory controller, an integrated silicon package and a connector. The exterior surface of the housing displays an art cover or other images related to content stored in the drive. The drive provides a plurality of controls on display of the vehicle for controlling playing of the audio content. Further, the device can be formatted to load new audio content and/or delete existing audio content.

Methods and systems are provided for encoding audio data from an audio file, wherein the audio data comprises audio samples. Audio data is segmented from the audio file in order to obtain at least one segment. Each segment comprises a time interval of the audio data, and each segment also comprises a plurality of audio samples grouped in frames. A segment index and a description stream containing the segment index is then generated. The segment index comprises the position of the segments within the audio file. A segment stream containing the audio data of one particular segment is then generated. At least part of the audio data is encrypted during the generation of the segment stream with an encryption key.

An apparatus and method for transmitting multiple on-demand audio streams locally to web-enabled user devices. Primarily usable for local audio acquisition and instant redistribution in conference halls with translation booths and stadiums with commentators, the technology is scalable and can be tailored to suit any local acquisition and distribution of both digital and analog audio signals. The technology is reliant on the local network configuration and wireless coverage.

A system and method for making categorized music tracks available to end user applications. The tracks may be categorized based on computer-derived rhythm, texture and pitch (RTP) scores for tracks derived from high-level acoustic attributes, which is based on low level data extracted from the tracks. RTP scores are stored in a universal database common to all of the music publishers so that the same track, once RTP scored, does not need to be re-RTP scored by other music publishers. End user applications access an API server to import collections of tracks published by publishers, to create playlists and initiate music streaming. Each end user application is sponsored by a single music publisher so that only tracks capable of being streamed by the music publisher are available to the sponsored end user application.

Embodiments are described herein that involve receiving, by a social-media computing system from a media playback system, playback data indicating media that is being played back by the media playback system, where the playback data comprises an indication of at least one zone of the media playback system in which the media is being played back; and based on the received playback data, updating social-media data in a social-media account, where the updated social-media data comprises an indication of the at least one zone in which the media is currently being played back.

Systems and methods for use in a media playback system comprising one or more playback devices are disclosed, where a playback device has a corresponding first set of device attributes used by a first controller application. The methods include: (i) identifying a second set of device attributes used by a second controller application to control the playback device, (ii) selecting a second device attribute for the playback device from the second set of device attributes based at least in part on a first device attribute; (iii) storing the selected second device attribute in the first set of device attributes; and (iv) controlling at least one function of the playback device using the selected second device attribute.

The present disclosure provides a video data processing method and device, and a readable storage medium, where the technical means is adopted which includes: processing, according to a preset trained deep learning algorithm model, input video data to be processed, to obtain a label vector of the video data; determining, according to a label vector of each music data in a music library and a preset recommendation algorithm, a recommendation score of the label vector of each music data with respect to the label vector of the video data; and taking, according to the each recommendation score, the music data matching the video data as background music. By means of the above, and further a deep learning algorithm model and a recommendation algorithm, the data processing efficiency of finding the background music of the video data in the music library is effectively improved, and the labor cost is reduced.
