    Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided to create a unified catalog of media content that reflects media content available across a multitude of electronic devices. Each electronic device generates a catalog representative of all media content stored thereon and provides that catalog to a requesting server or other electronic device to be combined with at least one other catalog to form a combined or central catalog that accounts for duplicate entries.

    Abstract: Automated wireless three-dimensional (3D) video conferencing is provided using a tunerless television device. A 3D video conference is automatically established with a wireless device capable of 3D video conferencing using a wireless communication interface of the tunerless television device. A first and a second two-dimensional (2D) video stream are received, using a camera interface module, from a first and a second video camera associated with the tunerless television device. A merged 3D video stream is created from the first 2D video stream and the second 2D video stream using a 3D video offload processing module operatively coupled to the camera interface module. The merged 3D video stream is sent to the wireless device using the wireless communication interface. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.

    Abstract: A method and structure for establishing faster transmission of Consumer Electronic Control (CEC) commands between first and second HDMI-compatible devices. The first and second devices may transmit CEC commands via a shared alternate interface, a signaling path distinct from a standard HDMI CEC interface between the first and second devices. Authentication may furthermore be performed prior to use of the alternate interface to confirm that the communication is authorized.

    Abstract: A method and structure for authentication in a system having devices capable of communicating via multiple signal paths. Authentication is carried out between first and second devices. A first device communicates with a second device over a first data signaling path of an interface between the first and second devices in a first portion of an authentication process. A second device communicates with the first device over a second data signaling path of the interface between the first and second devices in a second portion of the authentication process.

    Abstract: A method of handling Internet links includes providing a link associated with a uniform resource locator (“URL”) including a scheme name that references an application, and a handler-directive that references a functionality to be performed by the application. The link can be provided in an internet browser on a display screen of an electronic device. The method further includes launching the application referenced by the URL in response to a user selecting the URL. The launched application includes a URL handler, which receives the URL and breaks up the URL to separate the handler-directive. The method further includes determining whether the handler-directive is supported in the URL handler. The functionality referenced by the handler-directive is then performed by the application.
