    Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products are disclosed for encoding digital media for fast start on digital media players. In some implementations, a set of frames at the beginning of a digital media file or stream are encoded at a first bitrate (e.g., a constant low bitrate), and subsequent frames of the digital file or stream are encoded at a second, bitrate that may be higher than the first bitrate.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a unique (or quasi unique) identifier can be received by an application store, or other on-line store, and the store can create a signed receipt that includes data desired from the unique identifier. This signed receipt is then transmitted to a device that is running the application obtained from the on-line store and the device can verify the receipt by deriving the unique (or quasi-unique) identifier from the signed receipt and comparing the derived identifier with the device identifier stored on the device, or the vendor identifier assigned to the application vendor.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a mobile device can be configured to automatically download and install updates to applications installed on the mobile device. In some implementations, the automatic updates can be performed based on how the mobile device is connected to a network that provides access to the application updates. In some implementations, the automatic updates can be performed based on whether the mobile device has previously downloaded applications or application updates from a caching server. In some implementations, indicia can be presented on a graphical user interface of the mobile device to indicate which applications have been updated. In some implementations, an application update can be downloaded while the corresponding application is in use by the user. The application can be installed when the application is no longer being used by the user.

    Abstract translation: 在一些实施方式中,移动设备可以被配置为自动下载并安装在移动设备上安装的应用的更新。 在一些实现中,可以基于移动设备如何连接到提供对应用更新的访问的网络来执行自动更新。 在一些实现中,可以基于移动设备是否先前从缓存服务器下载了应用程序或应用程序更新来执行自动更新。 在一些实现中,可以在移动设备的图形用户界面上呈现标记,以指示哪些应用已被更新。 在一些实现中,可以在用户使用相应的应用程序的同时下载应用程序更新。 当应用程序不再被用户使用时,可以安装该应用程序。

    Abstract: Techniques for automatically configuring and controlling a digital media device are described. A digital media device can be configured or controlled by a mobile device, e.g., a smart mobile phone. When the digital media device is being configured, the digital media device can broadcast a signal, indicating that the digital media device is requesting configuration information from a mobile device. A mobile device located in proximity of the digital media device, upon detecting the signal, can perform various security checks to determine that the request is legitimate, and then open a communication channel with the digital media device. The mobile device can provide user preferences of the mobile device, as well as credentials for accessing and downloading remote content, to the digital media device through the communication channel. Upon receiving the configuration information, the digital media device can use parameters in the configuration information as its settings.
