摘要： The scaling of a user interface according to network or device limitations is disclosed. One embodiment provides a method of scaling a user interface, comprising sending a user interface over a network to a networked device, detecting a performance limitation of the user interface in at least one of the network or the networked device, and scaling a parameter of the user interface in response to the detected limitation to improve the performance of the user interface. In this manner, a user interface may be scaled in response to limitations on performance and end-user experience can be improved.

摘要： Described herein is technology for, among other uses, performing playback of dynamic content using protocols designed for playback of fixed-length files. The technology involves strategically updating the duration of the content during playback under various conditions. During playback, as the playback position approaches the duration, the duration is refreshed. Also, during playback the rate at which the duration is increasing is used to predict the duration and thus smoothly report the duration to the user. Upon receiving a seek request, if the request is beyond the current duration, the duration will be refreshed to avoid unnecessarily limiting the seek request.
摘要翻译：这里描述的是用于使用为播放固定长度文件而设计的协议来执行动态内容的回放的技术。该技术涉及在各种条件下在播放过程中策略性地更新内容的持续时间。在播放期间，随着播放位置接近持续时间，刷新持续时间。此外，在回放期间，使用持续时间增加的速率来预测持续时间，从而平滑地向用户报告持续时间。一旦接收到寻求请求，如果请求超出了当前的持续时间，持续时间将被刷新，以避免不必要地限制寻求请求。

摘要： A media server in the home entertainment network allows a media rendering devices to act as a digital media receiver. The media server enables trick mode functions such as scan forward or reverse, slow motion, pause, and seek on rendering devices with capabilities limited to 1× playback. The media server receives commands from user input at the rendering device transmitted over the network to the media server. The media server manipulates the media stream before the transmission over the network by deleting or adding frames to the media stream as necessary to emulate the desired playback functions and replacing frame timestamps to create a media stream that appears to the media rendering device as a sequential 1× stream. The transmitted media stream may not contain all of the media content stored in the corresponding media file on the media server, thus avoiding limitations on the download bandwidth and local client storage.
摘要翻译：家庭娱乐网络中的媒体服务器允许媒体呈现设备充当数字媒体接收器。媒体服务器启用特技模式功能，例如向前扫描或反向扫描，慢动作，暂停和寻找具有限于1x播放功能的渲染设备。媒体服务器从通过网络发送的呈现设备的用户输入接收到媒体服务器的命令。媒体服务器在通过网络传输之前操纵媒体流，根据需要删除或添加帧到媒体流，以模拟期望的播放功能并且替换帧时间戳以创建媒体呈现设备所呈现的媒体流作为顺序的1x 流。传输的媒体流可以不包含存储在媒体服务器上的相应媒体文件中的所有媒体内容，从而避免对下载带宽和本地客户端存储的限制。

摘要： A congestion controller for a media server monitors both the buffer status of the client device as well as the network performance. The congestion controller may increase or decrease the pacing of packets transmitted over the network based on the fullness of a buffer on the client device, but may also change the bit rate of the packets based on the network performance. By monitoring both the client device status and network performance, the pacing and bit rate of the packets may be varied together to achieve an optimized throughput and maximized user experience of the media.
摘要翻译：媒体服务器的拥塞控制器监视客户端设备的缓冲状态以及网络性能。拥塞控制器可以基于客户端设备上的缓冲区的丰满度来增加或减少通过网络发送的分组的起搏，但也可以基于网络性能来改变分组的比特率。通过监视客户端设备状态和网络性能，分组的起搏和比特率可以一起变化，以实现优化的吞吐量并最大化媒体的用户体验。

摘要： A media experience policy engine includes three components: an information manager, a policy evaluator, and an enforcement module. The information manager collects information regarding the current state of a media delivery system, such as, for example, usage of a CPU, memory, hard disk, (I/O) interface, and a network. This collected data is then verified by the policy evaluator to see if resource contention is, or is close to, occurring. If so, existing or potential conflicts are dealt with by the enforcement module, which applies corrections, such as, for example, limiting the access of later chronologic users, or degrading the user experience of all users, in accordance with a desired policy in order to vitiate the resource contention and maintain a user experience consistent with the desired policy.

摘要： Adjusting media streaming parameters of a media streaming device and media playback parameters of a media playback device is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system probes a network infrastructure to determine a network type, a playback device type, a streaming device type, a media content type, a preroll duration, and a playback device buffer size. Based upon these streaming and playback conditions, values of streaming parameters of a streaming device and values of playback parameters of a playback device are determined. Streaming parameters include the aggressiveness of the network transmitter, the slope of the transmit rate ramp-up, and the maximum transmit rate. Playback parameters include the amount of data prerolled by the playback device. The aforementioned values are sent to streaming and playback device control systems to control the streaming and the playback of the media, during and/or before playback.

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： The multi-location buffering of streaming media data is disclosed. One embodiment comprises buffering a first segment of media data associated with a current playback location, and buffering a second segment of media data associated with a seek point separated from the first segment of media data by a segment of unbuffered data. In this manner, data at seek points in the media stream may be buffered before a user requests a seek operation. Playback at a seek point may therefore begin with lessened or no perceived lag when a user inputs a seek command.
