The present disclosure provides a lyric video display method and device, an electronic apparatus, and a computer-readable medium. The method includes: playing, based on a lyric video display operation of a user, multimedia data and data about music to be displayed, the multimedia data including image data, and the music data including audio data and lyrics; determining a target time point, determining a target object in the image data corresponding to the target time point, and determining target lyrics in the lyrics corresponding to the target time point; and displaying the target lyrics within a preset range of a position of the target object in the target image, and adjusting display effects of the target lyrics based on depth information of the target object, while playing a part of the audio data corresponding to the target lyrics.

Techniques and apparatus for weighted-median prediction for point-cloud attribute coding
11503367 · 2022-11-15 · ·

A method of predicting point cloud attribute coding includes receiving point cloud data comprising one or more candidate points and extracting one or more candidate attribute values for the one or more candidate points from the received point cloud data. The method further includes calculating a weighted median from the one or more extracted candidate attribute values and a weight factor, whereby the weight factor corresponds to a relative importance factor of a candidate vector associated with the extracted candidate attribute values. The method further includes assign one or more prediction indices corresponding to attribute data for video encoding to the candidate points in response to the calculation of the weighted median, wherein the prediction indices and processing the media content to encode the attribute data associated with the candidate points having the lowest prediction indices.

Content-modification system with overlay handling feature

In one aspect, a method includes identifying an upcoming content-modification opportunity on a channel, where the upcoming content-modification opportunity relates to a modifiable content-segment transmitted by a content-distribution system on the channel, and where the modifiable content-segment includes an overlay content portion and a non-overlay content portion. The method also includes responsive to identifying the upcoming content-modification opportunity on the channel, identifying a content-presentation device tuned to the channel. The method also includes determining location data associated with the overlay content portion. The method also includes transmitting, to the identified content-presentation device, the determined location data to facilitate the content-presentation device performing a content-modification operation in connection with the identified upcoming content-modification opportunity on the channel, where performing the content-modification operation involves replacing only the non-overlay content portion with supplemental content.

11606528 · 2023-03-14 · ·

Techniques are described for expanding and/or improving the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 television protocol in robustly delivering the next generation broadcast television services. A dynamic MPD can be supplemented by offline descriptor information transmitted OTA at display time so that the descriptor information, e.g., language information, captioning information, and the like, can be immediately presented on a UI.

BIT STREAM GENERATION METHOD, ENCODING DEVICE, AND DECODING DEVICE

As a bit stream generation method for generating a bit stream of transmission data in which a plurality of signals including at least a tactile signal is multiplexed, a signal transmission unrequired section of the tactile signal is determined and, in a case where the signal transmission unrequired section exists, the bit stream in which additional information other than the tactile signal is inserted into the signal transmission unrequired section is generated.

Information processing apparatus, mobile terminal, information processing method, program, and information processing system

The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, mobile terminal, information processing method, program, and information processing system that can make it possible to easily link information output by a certain device to information output by another device. An information processing apparatus according to one aspect of the present technology includes: a reception control unit for allowing receiving a content containing first address information specifying a source of provision of first information being information related to the content; an output control unit for allowing outputting the content; an acquisition unit for acquiring the first information from a server acting as the source of the provision of the first information based on the first address information; and a provision unit for providing, to a mobile terminal, second address information included in the first information, the second address information specifying a source of provision of second information being mobile terminal-specific information related to the content. The present technology can be applied to a device including a display.

INFLUENCING CONTENT OR ACCESS TO CONTENT

A method of influencing access to website, social media or mobile application content is described. The method comprises identifying the occurrence of an item of live or previously broadcast media content, identifying consumer Internet activity at the time of the occurrence of the item of media content, and identifying, from said detected consumer internet activity, a strategy to influence an Internet search function, social media site or mobile application to display selected information. Then, a subsequent broadcast of the item of media content is identified, and the identified strategy is triggered at the point the item occurs during the time of the identified subsequent broadcast.

Reproducing device, reproducing method, program, and transmitting device
09807449 · 2017-10-31 · ·

A transmitting apparatus including circuitry configured to generate caption data corresponding to content data and having elements defined in Extensible Markup Language (XML), and output the content data and the generated caption data to a reproducing device.

System and method for inserting and assigning a channel or program link per device or user

Insertion and assignment of a link or URL per device/user is provided. A CE device may be used by the user as an interface to access video content from a plurality of service providers, content provider/owners, etc. An indication to access video content from an unmanaged CE device may be received and the device and its manufacturer/manager may be identified. An analysis may be performed based on the requested content item, user's display device, CE device, CE device manufacturer/manager, business rules/agreements etc. A URL or link may be assigned based on the analysis. The URL or link may then be sent for display on the user's viewing device along with the stream of requested video content. The CE device manufacturer/manager may not have the ability to update or erase the URL/link that is sent by the service provider.
