Digital jukebox device with improved user interfaces, and associated methods
Certain exemplary embodiments relate to entertainment systems and, more particularly, to systems that incorporate digital downloading jukebox features and improved user interfaces. For instance, a smart search may be provided, e.g., where search results vary based on the popularity of songs within the venue, in dependence on songs being promoted, etc. As another example, a tile-based approach to organizing groupings of songs is provided. Groupings may involve self-populating collections of songs that combine centrally-promoted songs, songs in a given genre that are popular across an audiovisual distribution network, and songs that are locally popular and match up with the given genre (e.g., because of shared attributes such as same or similar genre, artist, etc.). Different tile visual presentations also are contemplated, as are different physical jukebox designs. In certain example embodiments, a sealed core unit with the “brains” of the jukebox is insertable into a docking station.
Cabinet apparatus
A cabinet apparatus including a housing having a cavity, a door that closes the cavity, and a support assembly that is coupled to the cabinet assembly. The support assembly may be movable in accordance with several different types of movement. For example, the support assembly may be movable upwardly and downwardly relative to the cabinet assembly along a vertical axis that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cabinet assembly. The support assembly may be rotatable about a first rotational axis to move a holding component of the support assembly between a stowed position in which the holding component is stored away and a deployed position in which the holding component protrudes from a periphery of the cabinet assembly. The support assembly may be rotatable about a second rotational axis to adjust an angle at which the holding component protrudes from the periphery of the cabinet assembly.
Image sound device having display portion that can appear/disappear
An image sound device is provided. The image sound device includes a housing including an upper end portion that includes an opening and a storage space inside the housing; a display including a display area for displaying video contents; a lifter; a speaker; a motor controller configured to control the lifter wherein the display is positioned at at least three height positions; and a controller configured to control the display to display an image on the display area and output sound.

Portable case and protective shield for video display apparatus
A portable video display system includes a base container and a display monitor mounted to a display support structure. The display support structure is hingedly coupled to the base container and can be moved between; (i) a closed position wherein at least a portion of the display support structure is stored within the case interior space; and (ii) an open position wherein at least a portion of the display support structure is in a deployed position outside of the case interior space. In the open position, the base container acts as a stand and supports the display support structure in the deployed position. The display support structure is configured to protect a display monitor when the display support structure is in the open position and includes a translucent shield that is positioned over the display monitor.
