    摘要: A system for identifying a subscriber device may include a customer premises device and a DOCSIS device. The DOCSIS device may be connected to the cable network. The customer premises device may be configured to generate a low power radio frequency carrier signal having a predetermined frequency and a predetermined modulation that correlates to a type of customer premises device. The customer premises device may be configured to inject the low power radio frequency carrier signal into a signal wherein the signal is received by the DOCSIS device. The DOCSIS device may identify the customer premises device based on the predetermined frequency and the predetermined modulation by comparing the frequency measurement and the modulation measurement to a prestored frequency data and a prestored modulation data that correlates to a plurality of types of the customer premises device.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a processor with first and second input ports and a memory operably coupled to the processor. The processor can detect streams of media samples at the input ports and determine, in response to the detection of the streams of media samples, a capture start time. The processor can also capture a first frame of a first stream of media samples beginning at the capture start time, and a first frame of a second stream of media samples beginning at a first time subsequent to the capture start time. The processor can also calculate a relative offset time based on the capture start time, the first time, and a rate associated with the second stream of media samples, and store, in the memory, an indication of an association between the captured first frame of the second stream of media samples and the relative offset time.

    摘要: A Streaming Filtering Solution may (1) generate a content map that identifies filterable content elements in a movie or other media; (2) generate media segment files based on the filterable elements; and (3) obtain a filter with categories and sub-categories of content to exclude or retain when the content is played. When content is requested, the Streaming Filtering Solution may (1) apply the filter to the media segment files to determine that some media segment files should be dynamically generated based on the filter; (2) dynamically generate one or more filtered media segment files; and (3) provide those files to a requester. Depending on the filter, and the characteristics of a particular filterable element, a filtered media segment file may have fully or partially muted audio, or may have fully or partially cropped video, or may be entirely omitted, or may have other filtering effects applied.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to an interactive television game show and method for playing an interactive game show. The interactive television game show structure comprises a communication system, such as a network, audience/viewers, at least one user, a computing platform with a data base, a game show studio with interactive devices and a financial institution. The television game show is intended to provide interaction with user and audience. Several lifelines will be created that will offer advice to a selected participant during the game. Some of the advices may be when to hit, when to stay, when to double down, when to change tables, when to change games or when to quit. Selected participant may disagree with the decisions of the lifelines, but if they're losing and drop below host or system administrator threshold the selected participant go home empty-handed or with a consolation prize with a high perceived value.

    摘要: Maintaining synchronization of encryption processes at devices during transmission of encrypted data over a communication link is provided. Cipher link maintenance characters are sent from a source device to a sink device. A local cipher link maintenance character generated at the sink device for decrypting the encrypted data can be adjusted according to the cipher link maintenance character. After authentication, cipher link maintenance characters corresponding to units (e.g., frames) of the encrypted data are sent along with the units of the encrypted data. When a transmission error occurs during transmission of the encrypted data, cipher link maintenance characters can be used to correct the error in a local cipher link maintenance character generated at the sink device. Hence, even if the transmission error occurs in the communication link, the sink device can resolve the transmission error and maintain the synchronization of encryption processes at the source and sink devices.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media are described herein for aggregating viewing data for one or more types of media content. Image data depicting a viewing area of a display device are received. A type of media content being displayed on the display device when the images are captured is identified. Based on the image data, a number of persons may be determined, as well as characteristics about the persons, responses of the persons toward the media content, and levels of engagement of the persons in the media content, or a portion thereof. Each determined item of information may comprise a viewing record for the media content. The viewing records for the media content may then be aggregated to create viewing data for the content, and the viewing data may be distributed to a content provider.
