| 20100223059 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PLAYING DYNAMIC AUDIO AND VIDEO MENUS - A method and an apparatus for playing dynamic audio and video menus are provided herein to play two or more audio and video menu items dynamically. Specifically, the audio and video data in at least two obtained audio and video menu items are split into audio data and video data, respectively. After the splitting, the obtained video data is integrated into one video stream data and the audio data and the integrated video stream data are played. In this way, the video data of each menu item in the dynamic audio and video menus are played smoothly and the voice prompts can be spliced seamlessly. As such, the effect of the audio dynamic menus is the same as the effect of playing a single audio file, and the user can hear the voice menus smoothly. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100235856 | METHOD, SYSTEM, AND DEVICE FOR REALIZING INTERNET PROTOCOL TELEVISION SERVICE - A method, system, and device for realizing an Internet Protocol television (IPTV) service are provided. The method includes the following steps. A message sent by a user terminal in a protocol format compatible with an IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) is received. The message in the protocol format compatible with the IMS is converted to a message in a protocol format compatible with an IPTV system. The message in the converted protocol format compatible with the IPTV system is transmitted to a corresponding entity in the IPTV system according to the content of the message. A conversion device is added between the conventional IPTV system and the IMS, so as to solve the problem in the prior art that a thorough and overall modification must be performed on the existing network system, thereby realizing interworking between the conventional IPTV system and the IMS, and achieving smooth upgrading of the IPTV system in the IMS network. | 09-16-2010 |
