摘要:
A system for providing multimedia ring back for a voice-call is disclosed. The system may include an MMRB for VC control module and a network access module operatively connected to the MMRB. The network access module is adapted to interface the MMRB with external network components. The MMRB is responsive to indication that a caller is inviting a callee to join a voice-call wherein the caller and/or the callee is subscribed to an MMRB for VC service. The MMRB is responsive to indication that the callee received an invitation message and is now pending acceptance of the voice-call, for causing the caller to adapt its media-specification for the ongoing voice-call establishment process to a media-specification that is compatible with multimedia-content communication, thereby enabling a multimedia-content communication with the caller during at least a portion of the ongoing voice-call establishment process.

A method and system for replacing at least one item in a source string compiled at a TV set-top box for conveying via a TV communication infrastructure. A TV communication gateway receives the source string from the TV set-top box, parses the source string and identifies at least one item that requires replacing. Such item may be incorrectly spelled or the TV communication gateway may run an application that translates the source string to a foreign language. For each item that requires replacing, the TV communication gateway determines at least one replacement item, compiles data which it forwards to the TV set-top box. In the case of a spell-check program, the data may be an XML list including for each incorrectly spelled item a list of alternatives. The list of replacement items relating to the selected item is displayed, allowing a user to select a desired replacement item.

A message delivery server system for delivery of electronic content to a receiving client, comprises: a data storage for storing electronic content, a connection unit for maintaining a connection with the receiving client, and a connection establishment unit for allowing a receiving client to establish a connection with the server. The connection establishment unit comprises a definition unit for placing one or more connection definitions relating to the connection in an entity that is independent of any actual connection socket used for the session. The definition unit can be use to establish additional sockets to maintain the session and the definitions within can be used to find the best way to download media to the receiving client.

Provided is a method for exchanging information, the method including: receiving content destined to a virtual representation of a recipient; sending the content to a recipient communication device that is being utilized by the recipient for non-virtual communication by utilizing an association between a virtual representation of the recipient and an identity of the recipient while concealing the association. Also provided is a method for participating in a virtual environment, the method including: receiving instructions from a limited device not capable of interfacing with the virtual environment; converting the instructions to a virtual environment-compliant format; sending the converted instructions to a virtual environment computer; receiving content from the virtual environment; converting the content to a limited device-compliant content; and sending the converted content to the limited device.

An in-band gateway which enables TV operators having a narrow out-of-band return channel the capability of providing high bandwidth applications including voicemail, voice attachments, music on demand, and picture mail, by using the in-band channel and the out-of-band channel in parallel. The in-band gateway can receive multiple sources of multi-media and manage them, so that when subscribers demand high bandwidth service, the in-band gateway sends the information though the in-band channel and can also handle the streaming of data. The command for sending a high bandwidth content is requested by a client software running on a set-top box application or middleware through the out-of-band channel. The in-band gateway allows the operators to provide multimedia content using both the narrow out-of-band channel and the in-band channel.
