A network device can manage the storing of content. In one aspect, the content may be managed to prevent the storing of multiple versions of the same content. A deduplication process may be performed by comparing digests generated at user devices. Based on the comparison of the digests, the network device can efficiently and effectively manage the retrieving and storing of content.

A wireless media distribution system is provided comprising an access point (6) for broadcasting media and a plurality of stations (2) for reception and playback of media. Each station is configured for receiving and decoding a timestamp in a beacon frame transmitted repeatedly from the access point. This is used to control the output signal of a station physical layer clock (12) which is then used as a clock source for an application layer time synchronization protocol. This application layer time synchronization protocol can then be used in the station to control an operating system clock (8) for regulating playback of media.

A purpose of the present invention is to provide a video replay system and a control method thereof in which the video replay speed is automatically controlled based on the note-taking speed of each viewer. The video replay system of the present invention comprises storage means for storing the video data; video replay means for replaying a video by reading the stored video data out of the storage means and displaying the video data on the display; detection means for monitoring a predetermined viewing behavior of a viewer of the replayed video, and for detecting a parameter associated with the viewing behavior; and automatic controlling means for, in response to the parameter detected by the detection means, automatically controlling the speed at which the video is replayed by the video replay means.

The present invention relates in particular to a synchronization system and method. The synchronization system comprises a specification unit for specifying synchronization signals associated with an audiovisual program, the latter comprising an audiovisual content and control information, a recognition unit for recognizing the synchronization signals in a transmitted stream carrying this program, by recognition of at least one extracted portion of the audiovisual content, and an activation unit triggering an action in case of detection of these signals. The specification unit prepares and transmits to the recognition unit recognition elements making it possible to obtain this extracted portion, as well as at least one action timeout lag in case of detection of the synchronization signals. The recognition or activation unit then delays the triggering of this action according to the lag transmitted, in case of detection of the synchronization signals. In variants, the timeout lag is determined and/or the recognition elements are obtained independently of the specification unit.
摘要:
Position information of image pickup positions included in a designated moving image file is read out from position of point of change information, and map information covering all the positions of the position information is obtained from a map information database by a map information obtaining portion. A map is drawn by a map drawing portion based on the position information and the map information. The drawn map is overlapped with a moving image, which is replayed by a moving image replay portion, by an overlapping portion and displayed on a display portion.
摘要:
Techniques are disclosed herein for managing the transfer of digital media that is recorded on a source device (e.g., personal video recorder) to a target device (e.g., portable media player). In one aspect, a user interface is provided for scheduling recording of digital media content on a source device and for inputting user preferences for transferring digital media content to be recorded on the source device to a target device. A user request is received in the user interface to schedule recording of digital media on the source device. User preferences for transferring digital media from the source device to the target device are also received in the user interface. The digital media is recorded on the source device per the user's request. Synchronization of the recorded digital media from the source device to the target device is managed based on the user preferences.
摘要:
Techniques for facilitating recording of media content events by media devices on remote storage devices are described. Some embodiments provide a remote storage manager as part of a media device, such as a set-top box. In one embodiment, the remote storage manager causes a media content event to be recorded on a remote persistent storage device by receiving the media content event from a program distributor, and then transmitting the media content event to the remote persistent storage device. In another embodiment, the remote storage manager instructs the remote persistent storage device to obtain the media content event from the program distributor, so that the remote persistent storage device can record the media content event without the media content event first being received by the remote storage manager.
摘要:
A method and device for synchronizing audio/video signals is provided. A first and a second auxiliary signal are generated, wherein the first and the second auxiliary signals are pulse-shaped, and transmitted to a first and a second rendering device via a first and a second transmission path, respectively. The first audio/video output signal based on the first auxiliary signal and a second audio/video output signal based on the second auxiliary signal are outputted to a user. The user adjusts a delay of the first and/or second transmission path by synchronizing the first audio/video output signal with the second audio/video output signal.
