Abstract: Systems and methods are described for delivering messages from one or more service hosts to clients via a network. A first request identifying the client is received at the message server, and a connection is established and maintained between the message server and the client in response to the first request. When a subsequent request that identifies the client is received from the service host, a message is transmitted from the message server to the client over the previously-established connection. The methods and techniques may be used, for example, to provide messages from various services to placeshifting devices or other clients communicating via the network.

Abstract: A system includes a media studio including a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions executable by the processor. The processor is programmed to receive data indicating a type of event to be recorded, receive one or more media input items from one or more respective media devices, and generate a media output item based at least in part on the one or more received media input items, and further based at least in part on the data indicating the type of event to be recorded and one or more respective locations of the one or more respective media devices.

Abstract: Media content is paired with context-relevant supplemental content, and the media and supplemental content are provided to a user. A media stream containing the media content may be received from a source system, and context information about the media content is determined from information about the media stream. The supplemental content may be selected based on the determined context information. This may enable a business model in which third parties can register advertising or other supplemental content and specify the criteria that cause it to be combined with the media content.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and related systems to manage preview segments to be shared with non-subscriber presentation devices. An exemplary method maintains a preview segment generated from content available at an authorized subscriber device, and associates the segment with access parameters maintained at the server system. The parameters regulate and restrict access to the preview segment by non-subscriber presentation devices having restricted rights to directly view or access the source content. The server system receives an access request from a non-subscriber presentation device. The access request includes a preview identifier of the preview segment and a device identifier of the requesting device, a user identifier of a user of the requesting device, and/or a network address of the requesting device. The request is processed to determine access parameters for the preview segment applicable to the requesting device, and access is granted or denied based on the determined access parameters.

Abstract: A place shifting device and a method for operating the same are provided. The place shifting device, for example, may include, but is not limited to, a communication system configured to receive a plurality of sources of media, a multiplexed channel transcoder configured to multiplex video from at least two of the plurality of sources of media into a single channel, and a processor communicatively coupled to the communication system and the multiplexed channel transcoder, the processor configured to determine the at least two of the plurality of sources of media, transcode, via the multiplexed channel transcoder, the determined video from the at least two of the plurality of sources of media into the signal channel, and transmit, via the communication system, the single channel to a remote electronic device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for keyless entry to a structure (e.g., hotel room) utilizing a set-back box. Registrants (e.g., hotel guest) may scan a barcode from their mobile device to check-in to the structure. Upon scanning the barcode or by other means, a mobile device identifier (e.g., a Bluetooth low-energy address (BLE)) is registered and associated with the checked-in structure. Receiving the registered mobile device identifier, the backend server pushes such to the set-back box associated with (e.g., resides in) the checked-in structure. The set-back box is enabled (e.g., BLE enabled) to actively scan addresses of nearby mobile devices. When the registered mobile device identifier is detected within a predetermined signal strength range (e.g., by using received signal strength indicator (RSSI) levels), the set-back box transmits a command to a smart lock (e.g., via BLE or Wifi or other radio) or to a lock controlling backend processor, to open the lock.
