    Abstract: A method for rendering application user interfaces on a television screen executes at a computer system coupled with the television screen. The computer system includes one or more processors and memory storing a plurality of applications configured for execution by the one or more processors. The method provides a user interface of a first application of the plurality of applications for display on the television screen. The method receives from a personal user device a user interface of a second application. The personal user device is distinct from the computer system and the user interface of the second application is provided by one or more programs executing on the personal user device. The method concurrently displays on the television screen the user interface of the first application and the user interface of the second application.

    Abstract translation: 在电视屏幕上呈现应用用户接口的方法在与电视屏幕耦合的计算机系统上执行。 计算机系统包括一个或多个处理器和存储多个被配置为由一个或多个处理器执行的应用的存储器。 该方法提供用于在电视屏幕上显示的多个应用的​​第一应用的用户界面。 该方法从个人用户设备接收第二应用的用户界面。 个人用户设备不同于计算机系统,并且第二应用的用户界面由在个人用户设备上执行的一个或多个程序提供。 该方法在电视屏幕上同时显示第一应用的用户界面和第二应用的用户界面。

    Abstract: Features of various implementations are used to enable delivery of matched functionality, content and/or services, as a part of an interactive television suite of technologies. In some implementations, a content delivery process is enabled so that communication between the primary TV receiver and a supplemental set-top box is reduced in order to avoid the need for one or more provider-specific APIs. For example, one aspect of the disclosure is a method of identifying a media program by capturing display data from the media program, and extracting text from the display data in response to determining that the display data includes the text overlay, wherein the extracted text is associated with the media program. In some implementations, a supplemental set-top box is configured to operate a primary TV receiver, without a provider-specific API, in order to determine the channel line-up available to a particular subscriber through the primary TV receiver.
