    摘要: A method for automatically retuning a specific broadcast program for a mobile or transportable device includes instructing the mobile or transportable device to stay on a specific broadcast program; monitoring a radio signal of the specific broadcast program broadcast from a first fixed location radio communication facility, when the radio signal is weaker than a threshold value, the mobile or transportable device searches a database thereof to find radio communication parameters of a second fixed location radio communication facility that broadcasts the same program as the specific broadcast program and locates most closely to the current location of the mobile or transportable device; and operably retuning the mobile or transportable device in the specific broadcast program broadcast from the first fixed location radio communication facility to the second fixed location radio communication facility according to the radio communication parameters of the second fixed location radio communication facility.

    摘要: A method, reception device and host device are provided for aligning data streams at a multi-source receiver. Portions of data for a plurality of data streams are received at a reception device, the plurality of data streams carrying respective content, wherein the content of each data stream is misaligned with at least one other data stream with respect to time. The portions of data are forwarded to a host device to be stored in respective delay buffers. Indexing information is maintained for each of the delay buffers. The portions of data are forwarded to the host device along with the indexing information.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for receiving radio broadcast signals by means of a radio broadcast receiver and to a radio broadcast receiver designed for performing the method, wherein the broadcast receiver has at least two receiving units for different transmission techniques. The user selects a radio broadcast service of a first receiving unit of the at least two receiving units, and the selected radio broadcast service is then played back by the radio broadcast receiver. The other, second receiving unit for the different transmission technique of the radio broadcast receiver searches for an alternative radio broadcast service having preferably the same or comparable content during the playback of the radio broadcast service selected by the user, and the radio broadcast receiver automatically switches over to the second receiving unit having the alternative radio broadcast service if the first receiving unit cannot play back the selected radio broadcast service.

    摘要: A computer system receives information snippets from a mobile device. The information snippets are extracted from a simulcast of a data stream of a radio broadcast received on the mobile device. The system identifies content metadata from the information snippets. The content metadata describes one or more features of the radio broadcast. The system selects a radio station from a radio station repository based on attributes of the radio station. One of the selection criteria is that the attributes of the radio station match at least a portion of the content metadata. The system presents a reference to the radio station to the mobile device as a recommendation.
