Abstract:
A system enables universal remote media control across multiple platforms, devices, and users. A protocol allows a media controller (such as computer or mobile device) to have access to running activities (such as a television show playing on a media player). The protocol does not require installation of a specific platform application, or a specific user-login/pairing of the media controller with the media player. The system receives commands from a media controller device using a common interface, provides the commands to a remote media player, loads new media content into the media player, based on the commands, and receives state notifications from the media player. The commands and the state notifications include a namespace and a message payload represented as a two-element script array. Another user or device can control the media player using the common interface, for example provided by a browser application on the media controller device.
Abstract:
In one general aspect, a method can include displaying, on a display device included in a computing device, content in an application executing on the computing device, and determining that the computing device is proximate to a videoconferencing system. The method can further include displaying, in a user interface on the display device, at least one identifier associated with a videoconference, receiving a selection of the at least one identifier, and initiating the videoconference on the videoconferencing system in response to receiving the selection of the at least one identifier. The videoconference on the videoconferencing system can be initiated such that the content is provided for display on a display device included in the videoconferencing system.

Abstract:
A method includes determining, by a local computing device, a portion of a web page to render for display via a remote display of a remote device, generating rendered presentation information by rendering the portion of the web page based upon at least one characteristic of the remote device and transmitting the rendered presentation information to the remote device.
Abstract:
The disclosed subject matter relates to systems, methods, and media for media session concurrency management with recurring license renewals. More particularly, the disclosed subject matter relates to using recurring license renewals for concurrent playback detection and concurrency limit enforcement for video delivery services and managing server resources for handling such recurring license renewals.
Abstract:
According to one general aspect, a method may include determining, by a processor of a local computing device, a portion of a web page to render for display via a remote display of a remote device. The method may also include generating rendered presentation information by rendering the portion of the web page based upon at least one characteristic of the remote device. The method may include transmitting the rendered presentation information to the remote device.
