DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
The present invention relates to a display device, and to a method for controlling the same. To this end, the display device of the present invention may comprise a communication unit and at least one processor. The communication unit may receive a first code for a first key input from a remote control device. The at least one processor transmits a command for the received first code to an infrared blaster through the communication unit, and based on receiving a control signal for the first key from a peripheral device connected to be operable with the display device, the processor may be configured to operate the display device.
Source apparatus and control method therefor
A source apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a storage, a communicator, and a processor configured to, when the source apparatus being turned on while the source apparatus is turned off, identify an application related to a content included in the content reproduction history among a plurality of applications based on a content reproduction history stored in the storage, control the communicator to receive a content list provided by the application, and provide the content list by executing the application.
Setup procedures for an electronic device
In some embodiments, an electronic device can guide the user in setting up the device for the first time or after a factory reset. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates suggesting and installing applications on the electronic device during device setup. In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates transferring settings and information from another electronic device during device setup.
METHOD FOR TELEVISON REMOTE KEYPRESS RESPONSE BASED ON ANDROID OPERATING SYSTEM AND TELEVISON THEREOF
This application provides a method for method for television (TV) remote keypress response based on Android operating system (OS) and a TV thereof, and includes: creating a first process when the Android OS is being initialized; executing the first process to obtain a key value of a remote keypress event; and performing a remote keypress operation according to the key value. The method creates and executes the first process during the initialization of the Android OS, thereby realizing responding to remote keypress during TV start-up, greatly enhancing user experience.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ALERTING USERS REGARDING AVAILABILITY OF UNCONSUMED CONTENT
Methods and systems are described for a media guidance application that limits the incentive for authorized users to share content with unauthorized users, while still allowing users to access content virtually anywhere. Specifically, the media guidance application allows an authorized user to receive only a portion of a media asset that he or she is authorized to access on a different device, after a designated time period, and/or when the remaining portion of the media asset is inaccessible.
TELEVISION SIGN ON FOR PERSONALIZATION IN A MULTI-USER ENVIRONMENT
Systems and methods according to the present invention provide sign on systems for devices, e.g., televisions, which balance ease of use with security and access control that is amenable to, e.g., household usage.
Multi-interface streaming media system
A streaming media device includes a printed circuit board hosting components configured to access internet data. An audio/visual connector is linked to the printed circuit board, wherein the audio/visual connector is adapted for connection to an audio/visual device, wherein the audio/visual connector is adapted to operate with a first audio/visual interface having sufficient power to fully operate the printed circuit board and a second audio/visual interface having insufficient power to fully operate the printed circuit board. A power connector is linked to the printed circuit board, wherein the power connector selectively receives power based on the audio/visual connector utilizing one of the first audio/visual interface and the second audio/visual interface.
Display device power mode
The first time a display device is turned on, is turned on after it has been factory reset, or is factory reset, the display device displays a message indicating that in a default and current power mode of the display device, a hardware component of the display device different than display hardware is powered off when the display device enters a low-power state. A user is permitted to have the hardware component remain powered on when the display device enters the low-power state.
Display dependent analytics
Exemplary aspects concern apparatuses and methods for display-related analysis of call data in an IPBX. In an example embodiment, an apparatus is configured to route data/VoIP calls via a data-communications server. An interface circuit is configured to selected parameters of interest based on capabilities of a set of devices and generate subscription requests to subscribe the devices to the parameters of interest. A processing circuit is configured to generate call summary metrics from call event messages for calls routed by the server and with subscription requests being associated with the parameters of interest. The call summary metrics are evaluated in connection with the parameters of interest as subscribed to by the devices and results of the evaluation are provided to the communications devices.
Techniques to customize a media processing system
Techniques to customize a media processing system are described. A media processing system is described capable of integrating a large set of heterogeneous electronic devices into a single integrated system with enhanced navigation capabilities and automated configuration services. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
