Abstract:
A system and method for providing feedback formats and transport protocol extensions to support interactivity between a rich media client and a rich media server. The present invention provides for feedback formats and protocol extensions for protocols such as SMS, MMS, HTTP and RTSP. These feedback formats and protocol extensions may be used for dynamic menus, rich media players, user voting situations, video/audio selection services, remote user interfaces, and other applications.
Abstract:
A transport mechanism for supporting the download of SVG over FLUTE or UDP. A RTP payload format is specified that enables live streaming and the streaming of rich media content. According to the present invention, rich media content is encapsulated in RTP packets based upon the payload format at the sender. With the present invention, an efficient framework is provided for satisfying several use cases or scenarios that involve rich media transmission.

Abstract:
An extension to the ISO Base Media File Format to support ALC as a broadcast protocol. The present invention also provides for the extension of the ESG to include metadata specific to the transport of SVG over mobile broadcast/multicast networks. A “BMFDP hint track” is introduced in the container file format, with the required file metadata being in these hint tracks. The present invention can be used in applications such as the preview of long cartoon animations, interactive Mobile TV services, live enterprise data feeds, live chat services, and karaoke programs.
Abstract:
In a RTP stream having a plurality of FEC frames containing source blocks of media packets, random access points are inserted in front of the source blocks so as to allow a media decoder to decode the media packets as soon as FEC decoding is finished. In particular, the media packets contain forward error correction (FEC) source blocks for a multimedia broadcast/multicast-based streaming service content. As the multimedia broadcast/multicast streaming service includes dynamic interactive multimedia scene content where the source RTP packets of different media along with the FEC RTP packets are transmitted as separate RTP streams, the inclusion of the random access point facilitates immediate rendering of the dynamic interactive multimedia scene content after FEC decoding, thus reducing the tune-in latency.
Abstract:
A system and method for partitioning XML-based content into fragments, where transport packets are generated for encapsulating the fragments and streaming the encapsulated fragments to a receiver, such as a mobile device. Fragmentation of the XML-based content can be performed either with or without regard for any underlying XML syntax or structure. In either case, certain relevant fragmentation information is encapsulated with the fragmented XML-based content in the transport packets that allow for various reconstruction, error concealment, and retransmission schemes for presenting the streamed XML-based content on/to the receiver.

Abstract:
An approach is provided for providing perspective-based content placement. A content placement platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of one or more models of one or more objects associated with a geographical area to cause, at least in part, a decomposition of the one or more models into one or more simplified surfaces. The content placement platform further causes, at least in part, a selection of one or more portions of the one or more simplified surfaces as one or more content placement layers based, at least in part, on one or more viewpoints, with the one or more content placement layers supporting a perspective-based rendering of one or more content items associated with the one or more objects.
