    摘要: A High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) switch includes a plurality of peripheral device ports, each of which may be coupled to a corresponding peripheral device. The switch also includes a display device port for coupling to a display device. In one embodiment, the switch is configured to receive device identification information from one or more of the peripheral devices coupled to the peripheral device ports and to detect which of the peripheral device ports is an active port. The switch may then transmit the device identification information for the peripheral device coupled to the active port to a display device in accordance with an HDMI communication protocol, such as the consumer electronic control (CEC) protocol. In one embodiment, the peripheral device coupled to the active port is not configured to communicate according to the HDMI communication protocol.

    摘要: A TV communicates with an Internet video system providing video content to the TV for display of the content on the TV. The Internet video system also provides information to the TV for rendering into a user interface (UI) screen on the TV and presenting icons representing respective Internet video providers, the icons being arranged on the screen in accordance with respective remunerations remitted by each provider. Parental controls entered into the V-chip of the TV can be automatically provided to the Internet video system for implementation in the Internet video system.
