摘要： Methods for measuring resonance of an ad with a user. Ads are delivered to a user during a commercial break of a program being delivered by a content provider. Each ad is associated with a unique identifier and at least one tag describing an attribute of the ad. Input from the user is received during presentation of an ad indicating that the user would like to stop viewing the ad before the ad has ended. The user's interest in the ad is determined based on the amount of time that the user viewed the ad before, and the instance of the user's viewing behavior is stored in a user profile database.

摘要： The real-time generation of key frames in a media data stream is disclosed. One embodiment provides a method of processing encoded media data comprising receiving a request to play back the encoded media data from a media receiver, generating one or more key frames from the encoded media data, and sending the generated key frame or key frames to the media receiver. The key frames are generated by decoding the media data, and then encoding the key frames from the decoded media data. In this manner, a frequency of key frames in a media data stream may be increased to improve trick mode and 1× playback.

摘要： Described herein is technology for, among other things, improving playback of media streams by maximizing bandwidth utilization. The technology may be implemented via a remote playback device on a network. It involves monitoring requests for portions of streaming media content and the associated responses to the requests and then adjusting request parameters to more effectively utilize available bandwidth. The effective available bandwidth may be controlled by moderating requests in order to induce behavior favorable to media streaming in the flow control mechanisms which control the amount of data sent in response to a request.

摘要： Transrate/transcode functionality of media processing units in devices distributed within a networked media system are harnessed to enable media streaming to devices across networks while overcoming insufficient bandwidth to transmit the source content or while providing reformatted media to devices that do not support the source format. A policy engine may reallocate media processing resources for greater efficiency. The policy engine may further schedule time-slicing of media segments in available hardware and software-based codecs. Time-slicing may be used to transformatively process one or more media streams across potentially multiple media processing units connected within a network. The media streams are divided into independently processable segments based upon knowledge of underlying media formats. Processing requirements and a priority processing order may be determined for and assigned to each independently processable segment. The segments may be scheduled for delivery to the media processing units based upon the assigned priority and processing requirements.

摘要： A digital media system uses client buffer fullness reports to detect clock drift between a clock on a host/source device that delivers streaming media content and a clock on a client playback device that receives the streaming media content. The system provides a reduction in playback interruptions during playback of streaming media content and a greater potential that “live” content encoded by a host/source device can actually be experienced as “live” content through playback on a client device.

摘要： A media server in a home entertainment network coordinates with a media player connected with the network to provide a media presentation with a combined user interface (UI) on an attached display device. Media content is sourced locally on a networked media player. The media player extracts metadata related to the media content and transmits the metadata to the media server. The media server creates the UI to include components related to the media content rendered by the media player. The media server then transmits the UI to the media player for combination with the rendered media content for a composite output to a presentation device. The media server may further develop and transmit compositing instructions and additional media content to the media player for inclusion in the composite output.

摘要： Described herein is technology for, among other things, performing playback in resource-limited environments. The technology involves identifying one or more primary streams and one or more secondary streams of a piece of media content based on the media content itself and/or on the particular playback scenario and then modifying playback and streaming parameters accordingly. The one or more primary streams may then be given priority in order to ensure a satisfactory playback experience. The playback characteristics, the one or more primary streams of the media content, and the resources available in the playback environment can be monitored and changed throughout playback. Both the device streaming and the device receiving the content may communicate to further optimize playback.

摘要： An intelligent retransmission of data stream segments is disclosed. One embodiment comprises detecting a missing media data segment at a media receiver, assigning a value to the missing media data segment based upon media playback consequences of not utilizing the missing media data segment, comparing the value with a threshold, and requesting retransmission of the missing media data segment from a media server if the value meets a predetermined condition relative to the threshold. In this manner, retransmission is requested when it is determined that retransmission will improve playback performance relative to non-retransmission.
