    Abstract: A method of decoding JVET video that includes receiving a bitstream indicating how a coding tree unit was partitioned into coding units, and parsing said bitstream to generate at least one predictor based on an intra prediction mode signaled in the bitstream, the intra prediction mode selected from a plurality of intra prediction modes for calculating a prediction pixel P[x,y] at coordinate x,y for the coding unit. A number of intra prediction modes available for coding the coding unit are reduced by replacing two or more non-weighted intra prediction modes by a weighted intra prediction mode.

    Abstract: A system for determining a location and an orientation of a remote control unit within a mesh network. A remote control unit (RCU) includes a top wireless orientation beacon at a first end and a bottom wireless orientation beacon at a second end. The top wireless orientation beacon and the bottom wireless orientation beacon provide location information to a controller device. A plurality of wireless mesh beacons are disposed in a predetermined area to form a mesh network, and the controller device uses the plurality of mesh beacons to generate a map of the predetermined area. The controller device processes location information obtained from the RCU to determine a position and orientation of the RCU relative to the controller device in the map of the predetermined area.

    Abstract: A wireless master device to remotely perform network speed tests on a wireless client device that is not in the possession of the user. A user interface (UI) is provided that displays a list of client devices that may be selected to be the wireless master device and a list of client devices that may be selected to perform the speed test. A start instruction is wirelessly sent to start the speed test on the selected client device. Network speed test results of the client device are received by the wireless master device and presented in the UI. The UI presents options for selecting a type of speed test to perform. The UI includes an area where messages and the test results are presented.

    Abstract: Methods and systems of narrowcasting to a service group having one or more one-way set top boxes are shown and disclosed. The method may include receiving encrypted single program transport streams (SPTSs) from an encryptor, and receiving one or more session control signals for the SPTSs from a switched digital video (SDV) control system. The method may additionally include receiving service information (SI) packet identifiers (PIDs) for the SPTSs from a conditional access (CA) system, and updating the SI PIDs based on the one or more session control signals. The method may further include converting the SPTSs to narrowcast multiprogram transport streams (MPTSs) based on the one or more session control signals, and transmitting the narrowcast MPTSs and the updated SI PIDs to a plurality of edge quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) devices.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a random entropy pool in a processing system executing a plurality of processing threads is disclosed. Each of the processing threads having a processing result completed in non-deterministic temporal order in relation to other processing threads. In one embodiment, the method comprises computing, in a first processing thread, a first processing thread state value according to a shapeless mixing operation operating on an initial thread state value and the processing result, computing, in another processing thread having a subsequently completed processing result, another processing thread state value according to a further shapeless mixing operation operating on another initial thread state value or a previously computed processing thread state value and the subsequently completed processing result; and computing a portion of the entropy pool from the processing thread state value and the another processing thread state value.
