Techniques are provided herein for secure display device communications. In one example, a video communications device provides, to a display device over a first connection, communication information that enables the display device to contact a server over a second connection. The video communications device further provides, to the display device over the first connection, a command configured to initiate an interaction with the server. The server obtains, from the display device over the second connection, a message initiating the interaction in response to the command based on the communication information.

The present invention relates to a method for dynamic image content replacement in a video stream comprising generating a set of key image data (K) comprising a sequence of at least two different key images (K1, K2), periodically displaying said set of key image data (K) on a physical display, generating at least a first original video stream (O1) of a scene which includes said physical display by recording said scene with a camera, wherein said at least one video stream (O1) comprises key video frames (FK1, FK2), captures synchronously with displaying each of said at least two different key images (K1, K2) of said set of key image data (K) on said physical display, generating a mask area (MA) corresponding to an active area of said physical display visible in said key video frames from differential images (AFK) obtained from consecutive key video frames (FK1, FK2), generating at least one alternative video stream (V) by inserting of alternative image content (I) into the mask area (MA) of an original video stream, and broadcasting at least said at least one alternative video stream.

A method for aligning a translation of original caption data with an audio portion of a video is provided. The method includes identifying, by a processing device, original caption data for a video that includes a plurality of caption character strings. The processing device identifies speech recognition data that includes a plurality of generated character strings and associated timing information for each generated character string. The processing device maps the plurality of caption character strings to the plurality of generated character strings using assigned values indicative of semantic similarities between character strings. The processing device assigns timing information to the individual caption character strings based on timing information of mapped individual generated character strings. The processing device aligns a translation of the original caption data with the audio portion of the video using assigned timing information of the individual caption character strings.

In some embodiments, a method receives an supplemental content placement and a context associated with a request for supplemental content to be displayed for the supplemental content placement. A first value is generated based on the context using a prediction network for a platform. The method determines probabilities for a plurality of types of request actions based on the context. Then, a threshold for the supplemental content placement is calculated based on the first value and the probabilities for the plurality of types of request actions. The method submits the threshold to a platform in a request for the platform to submit a second value for the supplemental content placement.

A media appliance and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, a housing is adapted to be mounted within a wall. A panel forms a front portion of the housing and the panel includes vents and the panel may be mounted substantially flush with the wall. A media player, which includes a set-top box, is disposed within the housing. A pair of ports, disposed within openings defined by the housing, are configured to receive respective connectors. The pair of ports are coupled to the media player and one port is configured for providing a connection to a television and the other port is configured for providing a connection to an external source of signal for the television, as well as power for the media player.

An apparatus comprises: a camera module for obtaining a first image, the camera module having at least one port, each of the at least one ports being associated with an attachment position for receiving a second camera module for obtaining a second image; a processor for detecting a position of a second camera module and providing, to an image processing controller, information relating to at least one of the position of the second camera module and the first image obtained by the camera module; and a memory for storing the information relating to at least one of the position of the second camera module and the first image obtained by the camera module.
