Techniques for generating end-to-end sales leads based on storage capacity forecast using predictive modeling are described herein. According to one embodiment, diagnostic data is received from a data collector that periodically collects the diagnostic data from a storage system having one or more storage units to store data objects. A capacity forecaster coupled to the data collector forecasts a full capacity date using predictive modeling based on the diagnostic data, where the full capacity date estimates a date in which the one or more storage units reach a full storage capacity. A context generator coupled to the capacity forecaster generates a context having information identifying the one or more storage units of the storage system and an operator operating the storage system, wherein the context is used to communicate with the operator for acquiring an additional storage unit to increase storage capacity prior to the full capacity date.

Methods, data processing systems and machine readable non-transitory storage media are described that can provide, in one embodiment, a non-time based description of types of metadata in a time based metadata track that can be associated with, in time, a time based media track. The description can include a set of keys, or other identifiers, that specify the types of metadata in the metadata track, and the description can also include values describing the structure of each key and values describing how to interpret each key.

A cable management apparatus includes a base mountable on a wall or other surface and a flexible elastic loop having a hanging loop portion adapted to hang on the base for supporting one or more cables through the flexible elastic loop. The base may include a post extending outwardly for supporting the flexible elastic loop on the post. The cable management apparatus may also include a removable grooved collar for receiving the hanging loop portion of the flexible elastic loop. The removable grooved collar surrounds the post and slides onto the post.

A method and apparatus for variable accuracy inter-picture timing specification for digital video encoding is disclosed. Specifically, the present invention discloses a system that allows the relative timing of nearby video pictures to be encoded in a very efficient manner. In one embodiment, the display time difference between a current video picture and a nearby video picture is determined. The display time difference is then encoded into a digital representation of the video picture. In a preferred embodiment, the nearby video picture is the most recently transmitted stored picture. For coding efficiency, the display time difference may be encoded using a variable length coding system or arithmetic coding. In an alternate embodiment, the display time difference is encoded as a power of two to reduce the number of bits transmitted.

A description of types of metadata can provide, in one embodiment, an index to the types of metadata in a time based metadata track that can be associated with a time based media track having audio or video or both. The description can be non-time based and be separate from the metadata track, and the description can be examined to determine whether a particular type of metadata exists in the time based metadata track without having to search through the track to determine whether the particular type of metadata exists.

Provided is a wall grommet, which can be installed through the surfaces of walls to route wiring in the walls' interior spaces. In particular, the wall grommet is configured for running power cords inside walls and presenting the electrical connectors of a power cord in a manner such that power cords are hidden from view. The grommet may comprise a power module and a back cover. The power module comprises a housing, which defines an interior space that is adapted to hold either the female connector or male connector of a power cord. The back cover can be attached to the housing to secure the electrical connector of the power cord in the housing.

Systems and methods for automatically selecting video templates and audio files based upon the analysis of static or dynamic data stored in a database using predetermined criteria and automatically generating customized videos via integration of data from one or more databases. A specific video template is assigned to each current topic. Each variable required to customize the video template is associated with customizable data such as text, image, audio, and video data. The customizable data is presented to the viewer while the video template is played, thereby presenting a customized video to the viewer. The video templates may be theme and/or story based. Each video template may be identified by a multi-digit Video ID. One or more digits of the Video ID may be used to select one or more customizable data for presentation during playing of the video template in accordance with the variables contained in the video template.
