US Patent:
6769127, Jul 27, 2004
Filed:
Jun 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/595848
Inventors:
Mauro Bonomi - Palo Alto CA
Jean-Georges Fritsch - Los Altos CA
Patrick James Sweeney - Palo Alto CA
Randolph Osborne - San Jose CA
Reed Majors - Palo Alto CA
Francis Michel Degrange - Palo Alto CA
Ian Locke - Mountain View CA

International Classification:
H04N 5445
US Classification:
725 39, 725 94, 7173, 5445
Abstract:
A media system that centrally manages and stores media contents and also controls the delivery of media content to subscribers is disclosed. According to one aspect, an administrator can control program scheduling, rates, service packages and system configuration for a media delivery system. Additionally, the administrator may also control billing, transaction monitoring, and customer relations. According to another aspect, the media delivery system provides subscribers with centrally managed storage for paused or recorded media. Still another aspect is that the media delivery system can restrict various administrators to different modules of the media delivery system.

Extended Selection And Alignment Of Video Segments For Adaptive Streaming

US Patent:
20190173927, Jun 6, 2019
Filed:
Feb 4, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/266402
Inventors:
- Los Gatos CA, US
Francis DEGRANGE - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
H04L 29/06
H04N 21/234
H04N 21/236
H04N 21/2343
H04N 21/8547
G06F 13/40
H04N 21/845
G06F 13/16
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, and/or computer program product embodiments for extended selection and alignment of video segments for adaptive streaming. An embodiment operates by receiving variant segments, the variant segments including a first and a second variant segment having a first bitrate, and third and fourth variant segments having a second bitrate, for decoding and playback, generating a first, second, and third packetized elementary stream (PES) collections based on the first, second, and third variant segments. The embodiment further operate by storing the generated first, second, and third PES collections in a processing buffer, and determining, based on a maximum tolerance offset, a first and a second out-of-tolerance splicing locations and associated first and second out-of-tolerance offsets between the first PES collection and the second PES collection and between the first PES collection and the third PES collection.

US Patent:
20190044990, Feb 7, 2019
Filed:
Oct 9, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/155617
Inventors:
- Los Gatos CA, US
Francis DEGRANGE - Saratoga CA, US
International Classification:
H04L 29/06
H04L 29/08
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, and/or computer program product embodiments for selection of video segments for adaptive streaming. An embodiment operates by receiving one or more variant segments, the one or more variant segments including an old bitrate variant segment having an old bitrate and a new bitrate variant segment having a new bitrate for decoding and playback. The embodiment further operates by generating an old bitrate packetized elementary stream (PES) collection based on the old bitrate variant segment and a new bitrate PES collection based on the new bitrate variant segment and determining a first in-tolerance splicing location between the old bitrate PES collection and the new bitrate PES collection based on a maximum tolerance offset. The embodiment still further operates by splicing the old bitrate PES collection and the new bitrate PES collection based on the first in-tolerance splicing location.
