Abstract: Embodiments for video content source resolution detection are provided. Embodiments enable systems and methods that measure video content source resolution and that provide image-by-image source scale factor measurements to picture quality (PQ) processing modules. With the source scale factor information, PQ processing modules can be adapted dynamically (on a picture-by-picture basis) according to the source scale factor information for better picture quality enhancement. In addition, embodiments provide source resolution detection that is minimally affected by video coding artifacts and superimposed content (e.g., graphics).

Abstract: A method and system for efficiently organizing data in memory is provided. Exemplary aspects of the invention may include storing linear data and block data in more than one DRAM device and accessing the data with one read/write access cycle. Common control signals may be used to control the DRAM devices and the address lines used to address each DRAM device may be independent from one another. The data read from the DRAM devices may be reordered to make the data more suitable for processing by applications.

Abstract: In some aspects, the disclosure is directed to methods and systems for encoding and sharing media clips via a social networking provider responsive to a user interaction via a single “like” or “share” button. Media may be constantly buffered as the user watches the program, such that the user need not initiate recording, enabling the user to quickly share amusing or media clips as they happen live. The device may decode, scale or subsample, and compress or re-encode the media to take up less space in a buffer of the device and/or to comply with copyright fair use requirements. Responsive to the user interaction or “share” command, the device may transfer the contents of the buffer to a social media service along with instructions to generate a post to the social network identifying the user, media, and/or buffer contents.

Abstract translation: 在一些方面，本公开涉及用于经由社交网络提供商经由单个“相似”或“共享”按钮对用户交互进行编码和共享媒体剪辑的方法和系统。 媒体可以随着用户观看节目而不断地缓冲，使得用户不需要开始录制，使用户能够在现场直播时快速分享有趣或媒体剪辑。 该设备可以解码，缩放或子样本，并压缩或重新编码媒体，以占用设备缓冲区中的较少空间和/或符合版权合理使用要求。 响应于用户交互或“共享”命令，设备可以将缓冲区的内容与指导一起转移到社交媒体服务，以生成标识用户，媒体和/或缓冲区内容的社交网络的帖子。

Abstract: A method and system are provided in which a video processor may select a 2D video output format or a 3D video output format. The video processor may generate composited video data by combining video data from a video source, and one or both of video data from additional video sources and graphics data from graphics source(s). The video processor may select the order in which such combination is to occur. The video data from the various video sources may comprise one or both of 2D video data and 3D video data. The graphics data from the graphics sources may comprise one or both of 2D graphics data and 3D graphics data. The video processor may perform 2D-to-3D and/or 3D-to-2D format conversion when appropriate to generate the composited video data in accordance with the selected output video format.
