20090157891 | Method and Apparatus for Inserting Time-Variant Data into a Media Stream - An on-demand streaming server includes a memory array for storing on-demand content. The streaming server also includes at least one stream server module for retrieving the content from the memory array and generating therefrom a plurality of asynchronous media streams to be transmitted to client devices in accordance with a first transport protocol stack during an on-demand session. The stream server module includes a processor for interleaving into at least one of the asynchronous media streams a secondary data stream in accordance with the first transport protocol stack during the on-demand session. | 06-18-2009 |
20090198827 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EXPEDITING DELIVERY OF PROGRAMMING CONTENT OVER A BROADBAND NETWORK - A method is provided that is performed by a client device such a set top box when a viewer requests a program by initiating a channel change from a program guide or entering a channel through the user interface. The client device receives the user request and, in response, the client device transmits the request to the streaming server in the headend, which causes the streaming server to create a unicast catch up stream that commences with a key frame. The streaming server calculates the end point of the catch up stream and continues to send the catch up stream at a rate faster than real time. The client device receives the catch up stream and begins buffering it. While the catch up stream is being buffered the client device begins decoding and presenting the content. The client device receives the end of stream marker, and in response, sends a request to join the multicast stream. Once the client device starts receiving the multicast stream, the client device discards any remaining images or pictures in the catch up stream that precede the synchronization time. The client device also begins to buffer the multicast stream as it continues to play the buffered catch up stream. When it reaches the end of the catch up stream, the client device begins to play out the buffered multicast stream. | 08-06-2009 |
20100031301 | System and Method for Reducing Interlace Artifacts during Trick Mode Playback - A system and method for reducing interlace artifacts during trick mode playback of pre-encoded content. The system and method operate a decoder to receive a video signal, configured as frames, with each frame having a plurality of interlaced fields, and to provide a video output in interlaced format or trick mode format. When operating in a normal mode, the decoder provides the video output in the interlaced format. When operating in trick mode, the decoder is instructed to use one of the fields of a frame as a reference field, and outputs a video output frame in the trick mode format where both fields of the video output frame are the same as the reference field. The video signal can be a streaming video or read from a medium. | 02-04-2010 |
20100161716 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STREAMING MULTIPLE SCALABLE CODED VIDEO CONTENT TO CLIENT DEVICES AT DIFFERENT ENCODING RATES - A method of delivering content to a client device over a network includes establishing communication with a first client device over a network. A first message is received over the network that indicates the content rendering capabilities of the first client device. Based on the first message, content is transmitted to the first client device over the network in a format that is fully decodable by the first client device in accordance with its content rendering capabilities. | 06-24-2010 |

20140282262 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING NAVIGATION IMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH ADAPTIVE BIT RATE VIDEO CONTENT - Systems and methods that improve navigation within video content in an adaptive streaming environment are provided herein. | 09-18-2014 |
20150312594 | ERROR RECOVERY FOR VIDEO DELIVERY VIA A SEGMENTATION PROCESS - A client device may receive encoded video via a transport stream based on a video coding protocol. When errors result in receiving the encoded video, the client device may use an Internet Protocol (IP) connection to recover from the error. For example, an encoder may insert markers inband in the transport stream, and a segmenter then segments the video using the markers. The content remains in the form of a continuous transport stream that is compatible with existing transport stream delivery mechanisms. When an error occurs, the client device can then determine a locator for a segment that can be used to recover from the error and requests the segment from a server through the IP connection. The server sends the segment to the client device at the level of the transport stream layer without adding another protocol layer to encapsulate the segment. | 10-29-2015 |

20100006263 | Multi lumen heat exchanger - A heat exchanger has a multi-lumen tubing having one end connected to a supply fitting and another end connected to a return fitting. The tubing has a central lumen, a middle lumen that surrounds the central lumen and an outer lumen that surrounds the middle lumen. The supply fitting has an inlet, an outlet and a proximal port wherethrough an infusate is input to the heat exchanger. The supply fitting is configured such that its inlet is connected to the central lumen, its outlet connected to the outer lumen, and its proximal port connected to the middle lumen of the tubing. The return fitting is configured to establish a through passage between the central lumen and the outer lumen of the tubing so that a heating fluid fed through the supply fitting to the central lumen is returned to the supply fitting by way of the outer lumen. The return fitting further has a distal port configured to connect to the central lumen of the tubing, so that the infusate fed to the proximal port of the supply fitting may be output from the distal port of the return fitting, after passing through the central lumen of the tubing. As the infusate traverses along the heat exchanger, it is heated by the heating fluid that flows along the central lumen, and also by the rerouted heating fluid that flows along the outer lumen of the tubing. The heat exchanger is fluidly coupled to a heater by its inlet and outlet so that the temperature of the heating fluid for warming the infusate is maintained at a predetermined temperature. | 01-14-2010 |
20100241073 | Heat exchanger connector assembly - A connector assembly for a heat exchanger has a fitting and a mount to which the fitting couples. The fitting has an elongate body having a proximal portion and a distal portion. At the proximal portion there is a crossbar, and at the distal portion there are an inlet and an outlet that protrude away from the body. Two wings extend from the body in a direction opposite to that of the inlet and outlet. There is formed on each of the wings a locking protrusion. The mount has a top portion where there is a groove dimensioned to accept the crossbar of the fitting. A longitudinal channel is formed orthogonal to the groove in the mount. Two sidewalls extend from the mount each for accepting a corresponding one of the wings, when the fitting is coupled to the mount. Apertures are provided at the sidewalls to engage the protrusion at the wings so that, once the fitting is coupled to the mount, it is secured thereto, until a force is exerted to compress the wings towards each other to disengage the protrusions from the apertures. To couple the fitting to the mount, a user first positions the crossbar of the fitting onto the groove of the mount, with the body of the fitting at an angle relative to the mount. With the crossbar resting on the groove, a pivot point is established between the fitting and the mount, so that the body of the fitting can be pivotally positioned within the channel of the mount. At that time the inlet and outlet of the fitting are mated to an output port and an input port, respectively, of the mount; and the protrusions at the wings of the fitting are engaged to the apertures at the sidewalls of the mount. An infusate line and a heat exchanger are connected to the proximal end and distal end, respectively, of the fitting. | 09-23-2010 |
