    摘要: Stream control methods and devices are provided for use in a network (100) for transferring a video stream from a video server (120) to a video client (110) via a distribution chain of network resources (101,102,103, 106). A streaming controller (130) controls streaming settings at the client node. A bridge (150) controls the video stream by obtaining a bandwidth requirement of the video stream, and network resource data including bandwidths available on network resources. The bridge determines a resource allocation including an allocated bandwidth, based on the network resource data and the bandwidth requirement so that the video stream complies with the network resource data. The allocated bandwidth enables the streaming controller to control, in accordance with the allocated bandwidth, the streaming settings for the client. A network controller (140) receives network control data from the bridge to control, in accordance with the allocated bandwidth, the respective distribution chain associated to the respective video stream.

    摘要: The play-out of a media stream by a play-out device may be synchronized by a synchronization subsystem with a reference play-out, thereby obtaining a degree of synchronicity with the reference play-out. To address a structural deficiency in the obtaining of the synchronicity with the reference play-out, the play-out device may report a quality of sync metric to a metric subsystem, which may then be analysed to identify the structural deficiency. A corrective action may then be scheduled to address the structural deficiency. Examples of corrective actions include re-clustering of play-out devices, adjusting priority and/or bandwidth in the streaming, etc. As such, the quality of experience of one or more users experiencing the play-out may be improved.

    摘要: An audio system (100) may comprise:
    - a first set of speakers (11-14) arranged in a first area (1),
    - a second set of speakers (21-24) arranged in a second area (2),
    - an audio source (9) for supplying sound signals to the speakers, and
    - at least one detector (81, 82) for detecting the location of a user (U) and for supplying a location signal (PS1, PS2) to the audio source (9).
    The first area (1) and the second area (2) may be substantially non-overlapping. The audio source (9) may be configured for controlling the sound signals to the speakers so as to produce a sound field (10; 20) having a position. The audio source (9) may further be configured for adjusting, in response to the at least one location signal (PS1, PS2), the position of the sound field (10; 20) when a user moves from the first area (1) to the second area (2). As a result, the position of the sound field (10) may substantially coincide with the location of the user (U).

    摘要: A method is described for providing one or more patches to a client device. The method may comprise determining manifest file version information of a manifest file that is used by the client device; detecting an indication that one or more patches have been missed, a patch comprising information for updating at least part of information in the manifest file; requesting one or more missed patches on the basis of the manifest file version information (and the version information of the manifest file that the client would obtain after having applied the last missed patch - if available); and, receiving the one or more missed patches for updating the information in the manifest file.
