Dynamic transcode throttling methods and devices for processing resource management and thermal mitigation in electronic devices such as eyewear devices. An electronic device monitors its temperature and, responsive to the temperature, configures a transcoding service to operate at different rates. A frame delay module is configured to add a delay between read frames prior to the transcoding service. This enables the electronic device to consume less power when temperatures are too high in order to provide thermal mitigation and can be performed without powering down the electronic device.

Provided is an information processing device configured to determine whether to perform modification to a detail of part of not-yet-viewed-and-listened-to content for a user, on the basis of a reaction of the user to viewed-and-listened-to content.

A mode switching method is applied to a display apparatus with a first scenario mode and a second scenario mode. The first scenario mode provides a first shortcut menu, and the second scenario mode provides a second shortcut menu different from the first shortcut menu. The mode switching method includes receiving a first signal source of a first external device, analyzing the first signal source to determine the first external device is matched with the first scenario mode or the second scenario mode, and displaying the first shortcut menu on a display interface of the display apparatus and hiding the second shortcut menu when the first external device is matched with the first scenario mode.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, generating a video scene adapted to establish an ambiance setting and providing the video scene to equipment of a user for presentation at a display device. A visual focus is detected of the user towards presentation of the video scene displayed proximate to the user and the video scene is modified responsive to the visual focus. The modifying of the video scene is adapted to discourage visual focus of the user towards the presentation of the video scene. Other embodiments are disclosed.

A television remote finder assembly for locating a misplaced remote control includes a television that has a communication unit integrated into the television. The communication unit broadcasts an alert signal when the communication unit is actuated. A remote control is in wireless communication with the television for controlling operational parameters of the television. The remote control receives the alert signal when the communication unit in the television is actuated. Additionally, the remote control includes an alarm that is integrated into the remote control. The alarm is actuated when the remote control receives the alert signal to emit an audible alert thereby facilitating the user to locate the remote control when the remote control has been misplaced.

In some implementations, a method of reducing latency associated with an image read-out operation is performed at a device including one or more processors, non-transitory memory, an image processing architecture, and an image capture device. The method includes: obtaining first image data corresponding to a physical environment; reading a first slice of the first image data into an input buffer; performing processing operations on the first slice of the first image data to obtain a first portion of second image data; reading a second slice of the first image data into the input buffer; performing the image processing operations on the second slice of the first image data to obtain a second portion of the second image data; and generating an image frame of the physical environment based at least in part on the first and second portions of the second image data.

A television and system and method for providing a remote control device are disclosed. In one embodiment of the television, the television includes a processor, a memory, a tuner, a panel, and an audio driver therein in an interconnected architecture. The television may establish a pairing with a proximate wireless-enabled interactive programmable device, such as a proximate wireless-enabled interactive handheld device having a touch screen display, whereby formatted parallel audiovisual experience instructions, including virtual buttons, may be transmitted to the proximate wireless-enabled interactive programmable device for display on the touch screen display to create an experience parallel to the experience on the television. The television receives and processes virtual remote control functionality input instructions from the proximate wireless-enabled interactive programmable device to control amenities associated with the television.

Disclosed is an infotainment system for reproducing DRM content. The infotainment system for reproducing digital rights management (DRM) content of the present disclosure includes a module unit configured to receive the DRM content from a content provider, to reproduce the DRM content, and to convert the reproduced content into an output signal, a vehicle base unit including an interface configured to receive and transmit the output signal, and a display unit configured to display the output signal transmitted through the interface. The infotainment system for reproducing DRM content of the present disclosure has an effect of reproducing DRM content in an in-vehicle infotainment system without breaking laws related thereto.

A shared media streaming system is configured to allow audience members of a movie screening or other live event to view that event via a user device such as a personal smartphone if they exit the area of the live event to visit a concession area or restroom. The shared media stream begins displaying the film on the user device starting at the same moment that the request to stream was made so that the user may leave and return to the screening room without missing substantial portions of the film, and without re-watching already viewed portions of the film. Viewing is limited to particular geofenced areas within a theater, and is limited in time so that users must return to the screening room if they wish to continue watching the film beyond the limited time. Other limitations are also enforced to prevent misuse of the system.

Systems and methods for displaying a context image for a multimedia asset are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes a programmable processor, and a display device. In some embodiments, the programmable processor is configured to identify a first multimedia asset being broadcast in a region, determine and retrieve a first context image associated with the first multimedia asset, and direct the display device to display the first context image during the broadcast of the first multimedia asset.
