AIDING DISCOVERY OF PROGRAM CONTENT BY PROVIDING DEEPLINKS INTO MOST INTERESTING MOMENTS VIA SOCIAL MEDIA
A computerized method, system for, and computer-readable medium operable to: retrieve program details data about at least one media program. Retrieve social media posts involving the at least one media program. Match the retrieved program details data with the retrieved social media posts to find matching locations. Store time offset data corresponding to the matched locations within the at least one media program into at least one micropost. Rank the at least one media program by the number of microposts corresponding to the at least one media program. Present the at least one media program, each of the at least one media program with at least one micropost, wherein the at least one micropost comprises a link to the original social media page hosting the social media post and a video deeplink that plays a time off-set video, the time off-set video starting from the stored time offset data.
METHOD FOR CONTROLLING IP-BASED HDMI DEVICE
A data transmission and reception method for a sink device which is connected to a plurality of source devices by means of a high definition multimedia interface (HDMI), according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: receiving an allocation of an internet protocol (IP) address; transmitting device information about a sink device to a control point through a network; and transmitting service information about a supportable service by the sink device to the control point through the network.
BROADCASTING SIGNAL TRANSMISSION DEVICE, BROADCASTING SIGNAL RECEPTION DEVICE, BROADCASTING SIGNAL TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND BROADCASTING SIGNAL RECEPTION METHOD
A broadcasting signal reception device according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise: a reception unit for receiving, through the broadcasting network, a broadcasting signal including a first component of a DASH content which can be received through a broadcasting network and a broadband network; a delivery module for de-capsulating the received broadcasting signal, outputting LCT packets transmitted through one or more LCT channels, and parsing signaling information used for acquiring segments corresponding to the first component of the DASH content included in the LCT packets; and a decoder for decoding the acquired segments.
TRANSMITTING SYSTEM, TRANSMISSION SLOTTING APPARATUS, RECEIVING APPARATUS, AND TRANSMISSION SLOT GENERATING METHOD
A transmitting system includes a variable-length packet multiplexing apparatus and a transmission slotting apparatus. The variable-length packet multiplexing apparatus generates a variable-length packet. The transmission slotting apparatus stores the variable-length packet in slots forming transmission main signals. The transmission slotting apparatus includes a capacity calculator, an extractor, a remainder calculator, a selector, and a slot information multiplexer. The capacity calculator calculates a data capacity of the transmission main signals for one frame. The extractor extracts a byte number of the variable-length packet. The remainder calculator calculates a remaining capacity of the transmission main signals. The selector stores a predetermined data sequence in a region left in the slots, and outputs the slots storing the data sequence. The slot information multiplexer multiplexes slot information and the slots output by the selector.
CLOUD BASED VISION
A method for receiving a real-time video feed of a region of interest includes generating, at a processor of a first device, a request for a real-time video stream of the region of interest. The request indicates a location of the region of interest. The method also includes transmitting the request to one or more other devices via a network to query whether another device is situated to capture a portion of the region of interest. The method also includes receiving the real-time video stream of the region of interest from a second device of the one or more other devices. The second device includes a camera having a field of view that includes at least a portion of the region of interest.
CONVERGENCE SUBLAYER FOR USE IN A WIRELESS BROADCASTING SYSTEM
A method of encapsulating data and a single frequency network configured to perform the method are disclosed. A content stream of data packets is received, and the data packets in the content stream are formatted in accordance with a first protocol. Information identifying a container size established for the content stream is received. The data packets formatted in accordance with the first protocol are fragmented and packed to form data units formatted in accordance with a second protocol, and the data units are sized based on the container size. The data units formatted in accordance with the second protocol are encapsulated to form second protocol data packets. The second protocol data packets are provided to a transmitter that is synchronized to one or more transmitters in a single frequency network so that each transmitter in the single frequency network broadcasts a same signal that includes the second protocol data packets.
VIRTUALIZATION IN ADAPTIVE STREAM CREATION AND DELIVERY
An adaptive streaming server, a method, and a system are described herein that create a content stream to be delivered to one or more clients by segmenting the content into data structures which are stored in random access memory (volatile storage) rather than segmenting the content into segment files which are stored on a disk or database (non-volatile storage).
Method And System For A Mesh Network Of Satellite Reception Assemblies
A satellite reception assembly that provides satellite television and/or radio service to a customer premises may comprise a wireless interface via which it can communicate with other satellite reception assemblies. Wireless connections between satellite reception assemblies may be utilized for providing satellite content between different satellite customer premises. Wireless connections between satellite reception assemblies may be utilized for offloading traffic from other network connections.
Internet Protocol Television Via Public Wi-Fi Network
An apparatus, e.g. a wireless media access point, includes a transceiver, a non-transitory storage medium, and a processor operably coupled to the transceiver and the storage medium. The processor is configured by instructions stored on the storage medium to transmit a first multicast channel associated with a first group temporal key (GTK), and to simultaneously transmit a second multicast channel associated with a second GTK.
DECODING DEVICE, RECEPTION DEVICE, TRANSMISSION DEVICE, TRANSMISSION/RECEPTION SYSTEM, DECODING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING DECODING PROGRAM STORED THEREIN
[Problem] To provide: a decoding device that decodes and replays, in a suitable order, sequentially transmitted information; a reception device; a transmission/reception system; a decoding method; and a storage medium having the decoding program stored therein. [Solution] A decoding unit 21 that decodes packets sent from a transmission device 10. A decoding order determination unit 22 determines the order of packets to be decoded by the decoding unit 21, on the basis of adjustment information that is included in the packet and corresponds to a time adjustment for making Coordinated Universal Time approach Universal Time. The packets include order information indicating the order in the same IP data flow. The decoding order determination unit 22 determines, on the basis of the order information, the order of packets to be decoded by the decoding unit 21, if the adjustment information indicates that a time adjustment will occur.
