A system and method are provided for establishing an Instant Messenger (IM) reflector service. The method comprises: establishing an interface between an IM network server and an IM master client identified with a first username; establishing a reflector service between the IM master client and an IM peer client; and, identifying the IM peer client with the first username. That is, IM messages associated with the first username are routed via the IM master client. Alternately stated, IM messages are communicated between the IM network and all IM clients identified with the first username. More specifically, communicating IM messages with all IM clients identified with the first username includes: the IM master client receiving IM messages from the IM network, addressed to the first username; and, the IM master client distributing the IM messages to IM peer clients identified with the first username, via the reflector service.

Systems and methods for providing dynamic loading of applications over a network, wherein the loading is seamless and is initiated by a television. In a networked system that includes a television for rendering programming and a remote computer device having an application, the television dynamically determines that at least a portion of a remote application is needed and utilizes a network file system protocol to dynamically obtain the portion from the remote computer device, wherein the portion is obtained so as to be transparent to the view of the television and as needed by the television.

The embodiments of the invention relate to source content streaming, particularly to transmitting data units scheduled for dropping or non-transmission. This data unit in the buffer scheduled for dropping is instead transmitted by dropping one or more consecutive data units later in the transmission order in the buffer and which meet a lower priority threshold. In some embodiments, the data unit is transmitted with a modified time value, e.g., a modified timestamp and/or an allowable presentation time range value.

An image de-ringing filter system and method are provided. The method comprises: accepting image pixels; collecting data from a first group of pixels neighboring a test pixel; in response to the first group data, deciding if the test pixel includes image ringing artifacts; collecting data from a second group of pixels neighboring the test pixel; in response to the second group data, generating a filtered value (FV); and, replacing the test pixel actual value with FV. Typically, collecting data from the first and second group of pixels includes the performance of a mathematical operation. For example, a matrix may be defined for the multiplication of the first group of pixels. Values of pixels on a first side of the coordinate axis may be subtracted from pixels on a second side of the coordinate axis, opposite of the first side. Then, the difference is compared to a threshold.

The embodiments of the invention relate to client-side bandwidth allocation or rate-lowering processes, systems, and devices. In general, a received continuous stream is received at a lower rate while a discrete media stream is also being received by the client, and having the received continuous stream be received at a previous higher rate when the client is no longer receiving the discrete media stream.
