    摘要: One exemplary aspect is advanced multimedia communications via OCAP using customer specific profiles resident in the STB for calendar management. Additional aspects relate to invitation management including auto-calendaring, forwarding of an invitation details to a specific destination, conflict resolution, auto-rescheduling, global rescheduling and automatic reminders based on an invitation. Still further aspects relate to enabling confirmation of an appointment based on a received reminder and a technique to confirm an appointment with the ability to forward an appointment confirmed identifier to the appointment setter. Rescheduling routines are also provided for use with the calendaring application.

    摘要: An audio/video monitoring system is disclosed, comprising a combination of one or more set-top boxes and application servers in a service provider's network. The set-top boxes and applications services are part of a multiple services operator's (MSO) network, such as that of a cable company. Cameras and/or microphones which are directly connected to a set-top box are the sources of media signals, which the set-top box transmits to an application server. The application server continually receives the media signals from one or more set-top boxes, and determines which subset of the received media signals to forward to a selected output device, such as a television connected to another set-top box or a cellular telephone. The application server then forwards media signals of interest to the output device, such as when motion or a loud noise is detected in a media signal received from the set-top box or boxes.

    摘要: Utilization of stored of personalized information and communication preferences in a profile in a STB in a structured format or via cookies allows at least a combination of feature rich telephony applications, with the personalized data stored in STBs facilitating feature rich communications sessions. Providing advanced multimedia communications applications using personalized data resident in STBs could allow an entity to provide, for example, many previously unavailable services, and therefore provide considerable new business potential. The personal information stored in the STB can convey many exemplary benefits, such as communication preferences, alternate contact modalities, payment preferences, priority preferences, trusted contacts, personal information, as well as multimedia messaging, etc. The integration of the personal information with the intelligent personal agent also enhances the user experience.
