Abstract: A playback device is configured to: produce a first channel audio output of a first channel of audio content; produce a second channel audio output of a second channel of the audio content; receive captured audio content comprising (i) a first portion corresponding to the first channel audio output, (ii) a second portion corresponding to the second channel audio output, and (iii) a third portion corresponding to a voice command, wherein the captured audio content has a first signal-to-noise ratio; determine a set of signal components from at least one of the first channel or the second channel of the audio content; perform acoustic echo cancellation on a subset of signal components; determine an acoustic echo cancellation output; and apply the acoustic echo cancellation output to the captured audio content and thereby increase the first signal-to-noise ratio to a second signal-to-noise ratio that is greater than the first signal-to-noise ratio.

Abstract: Systems and methods for assisting one or more users in the production of a media work from a plurality of recordings are disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, digital versions of the recordings are stored on a file-storage server accessible over a communications network. A media-library server provides an organized way for users to access and view the digital versions, and to associate various data files with the digital versions, such as transcription files, logging files, and storyboard documents. The exemplary media library generates web pages that enable users to search and access the digital versions from an internet browser running on a conventional personal computer. The browser also enables users to view the digital versions with a browser-compatible media viewer.

Abstract: Techniques are described to enable selective content sharing in a video conference. In one example, a conferencing system obtains first display content from a first endpoint device in a video conference session. The conferencing system streams the first display content to a second endpoint device in the video conference session and obtains second display content from the second endpoint device. While streaming the first display content to the second endpoint device, the conferencing system streams the second display content to a third endpoint device in the video conference session and prevents streaming of the second display content to the first endpoint device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for detecting information that indicates that a user will be traveling from a first geographic location to a second geographic location, and responsively accessing a playlist indicated by a profile of the user that indicates a plurality of streaming media that the user intends to consume. Control circuitry may then compare data corresponding to each streaming media of the plurality of streaming media to a database to determine whether each streaming media of the plurality of streaming media is accessible to the user at the second geographic location, and may determine that a subset of the plurality of media is not accessible to the user at the second geographic location. In response to determining that the subset is not accessible to the user at the second geographic location, the control circuitry may download each media of the subset.

Abstract: Media monitoring and measurement systems and methods are disclosed. Some embodiments of the present invention provide a media measurement system and method that utilizes audience data to enhance content identifications. Some embodiments analyze media player log data to enhance content identification. Other embodiments of the present invention analyze sample sequence data to enhance content identifications. Other embodiments analyze sequence data to enhance content identification and/or to establish channel identification. Yet other embodiments provide a system and method in which sample construction and selection parameters are adjusted based upon identification results. Yet other embodiments provide a method in which play-altering activity of an audience member is deduced from content offset values of identifications corresponding to captured samples. Yet other embodiments provide a monitoring and measurement system in which a media monitoring device is adapted to receive a wireless or non-wireless audio signal from a media player, the audio signal also being received wirelessly by headphones of a user of the monitoring device.

Abstract: Systems, devices and processes are provided to facilitate the delivery of video content in a video streaming system. Specifically, the various embodiments can provide improved responsiveness by reducing the delay that occurs between when a user acts to initiate video streaming and when the video content is transmitted, received and displayed on a display screen. In general, these embodiments reduce delay by preloading video streaming content in response to detecting particular patterns of movement of a remote control. Specifically, these embodiments monitor for movement of the remote control and determining if a detected movement corresponds to a likely initiation of video streaming. When such movements are detected, the embodiments begin preloading the video streaming content at the video player device.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a first request for a first time window and a first viewport position for a client that is viewing a 360 degree video. A first message is sent to indicate a computing device will push content in a stream for a first one or more time windows other than the first time window. The method pushes content based on the first viewport position for the first time window to the client. A second request is received to change from the first viewport position to a second viewport position. The method sends a second message to indicate the computing device will push content in the stream for a second one or more time windows without canceling the stream. The method pushes content based on the second viewport position in the 360 degree video for the second one or more time windows to the client.
