    摘要: Media playlist techniques are described. In an implementation, a communication is formed, for transmission via a network to a media provider, to request data that describes media that is available for streaming from the media provider. The playlist is created based at least in part on media that is available locally on the computer and the data received from the media provider such that the playlist references one or more of the media that are available for streaming from the media provider.

    摘要: Media recommendation techniques are described. In an implementation, a similarity value is calculated for a plurality of media using a plurality of similarity functions. A vote is assigned for each similarity value that is above a threshold that is assigned for a respective similarity function and the plurality of media is ranked based at least in part on the assigned votes. A playlist is then created based at least in part on the ranking. Media seed techniques are also described. In an implementation, a set of dissimilar candidates are calculated for a plurality of media using a similarity function in which the set of dissimilar candidates describes the media that is dissimilar in comparison with other media included in the plurality of media. A seed is selected using the set of the dissimilar candidates to create a playlist that includes at least some of the plurality of media.

    摘要翻译: 介绍媒体推荐技术。 在实现中,使用多个相似度函数为多个媒体计算相似度值。 对于高于分配给相应相似度函数的阈值的每个相似度值分配投票,并且至少部分地基于所分配的投票来对多个媒体进行排名。 然后至少部分地基于排名来创建播放列表。 还描述了媒体种子技术。 在一个实现中,使用相似性函数来计算多个媒体的一组不同候选,其中该不相似候选集描述了与包括在多个媒体中的其他媒体相比不相似的媒体。 使用所述不同候选的集合来选择种子以创建包括所述多个媒体中的至少一些的播放列表。

    摘要: Media processing methods, systems and application program interfaces (APIs) are described. In but one embodiment, a media engine component, also referred to as a media engine, provides a simple and unified way of rendering media from an origin to a destination of choice without requiring intimate knowledge about the underlying components, their connectivity and management. Clients of the media engine need not worry about how to render the particular media, but rather can simply focus on what media to render and where to render the media. In at least one embodiment, a media session is provided and is encapsulated by the media engine and provides a mechanism by which additional components are made transparent to the application and, in at least some embodiment, the media engine. In some embodiments, the media engine and media session provide a simple API for building, configuring, and manipulating a pipeline of components (e.g. media sources, transforms, and sinks) for media flow control between an origin and one or more destinations.

    摘要: An exemplary system includes a media control operable to begin playing a media segment automatically after buffering the media segment, and a host application operable to receive a reference to the media segment, initialize the media control with the media segment, and cause the media control to postpone playing of the media segment after the media segment is buffered. An exemplary method includes receiving a playlist referencing a first media segment and a second media segment, the second media segment operable to play automatically without a prompt after being loaded, presenting the first media segment, and prerolling the second media segment.

    摘要: Incorporating interactive media into a playlist allows for media, operable to play automatically without a prompt after being loaded, to be loaded into a playlist and played from the playlist without overlapping playback with other media in the playlist. Incorporating interactive media into a playlist involves employing a playlist, a media wrapper, a media control, and a media player to preroll media, immediately stop playing the prerolled media while other media is playing, signal that media has finished playing in order to seamlessly begin playing the next media in the playlist.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described for registering a plug-in with a media player and for dynamically loading the plug-in into the media player. When a plug-in is installed for use in the media player, it calls a registration function of the media player. The registration function specifies registration parameters to be provided by the plug-in. The registration function receives the registration parameters passed from the plug-in and stores them in a registry of the operating system in a specified format in the registry that enables the media player to recognize and load the plug-in if called to do so. The media player dynamically loads plug-ins in a manner that provides a seamless media presentation experience for a user.
