Abstract: When unauthorized use of a device is suspected, a recharging mechanism (e.g., recharge-circuit) of the device is disabled in order to guard against extended unauthorized use of the device. The recharging mechanism normally recharges the rechargeable-power-supply that powers the device. Consequently, normal use and enjoyment of the device can be significantly reduced by disabling the rechager. Moreover, for devices that are mainly powered by a rechargeable-power-supply (e.g., music-players, phones, Personal Digital Assistants), disabling the recharger effectively renders the device inoperable when the power of the main power-supply has run out. As such, disabling the recharger should serve as a deterrent to theft.

Abstract: In a portable multimedia device, a method, apparatus, and system for providing user supplied configuration data are described. In one embodiment, a hierarchically ordered graphical user interface are provided. A first order, or home, interface provides a highest order of user selectable items each of which, when selected, results in an automatic transition to a lower order user interface associated with the selected item. In one of the described embodiments, the lower order interface includes other user selectable items associated with the previously selected item from the higher order user interface.

Abstract: An encoder includes an encoder engine, a storage device and a controller to implement an iterative coding process. The encoder engine compresses a selected portion of a data sequence. The storage device stores the compressed portion of the data sequence after each iteration. The controller selects the portion of the data sequence to compress for each iteration. The controller gathers statistics from the compressed portion of the data sequence. The gathered statistics include statistics generated by the selected frames and statistics extrapolated from the selected frames for the non-selected frames. The controller adjusts coding parameters of the encoder engine on each iteration until the gathered statistics meet a specified performance requirement.

Abstract: A system which utilizes the processing capabilities of the graphics processing unit (GPU) in the graphics controller. Each interlaced video field is resampled to provide full resolution and then displayed at full rate. The field pixel values are resampled as appropriate using the GPU to provide values corresponding to the locations missing from that field. The resampled values and the original values are provided to the frame buffer for final display for each field. Each of these operations is done in real time for each field of the video. Because each field has had the values resampled to provide a value for the missing locations from the other field, the final displayed image is both full resolution and full rate. In an alternate embodiment, the values of the preceding and following fields are included in the resampling operation to improve still object rendition.

Abstract translation: 利用图形控制器中的图形处理单元（GPU）的处理能力的系统。 每个隔行视频字段被重新采样以提供全分辨率，然后以全速率显示。 使用GPU适当地重新采样场像素值，以提供与该字段缺失的位置相对应的值。 将重采样值和原始值提供给帧缓冲区，以便每个字段最终显示。 这些操作中的每一个都对视频的每个字段实时完成。 因为每个字段已经重新采样了值，以从另一个字段提供缺失位置的值，所以最终显示的图像是全分辨率和全速率。 在替代实施例中，前次和后续字段的值被包括在重采样操作中以改善静态对象再现。
