20090263100 | DYNAMIC VARIATION OF OUTPUT MEDIA SIGNAL IN RESPONSE TO INPUT MEDIA SIGNAL - A first input signal, which has a first playback sequence, is resequenced based upon a characteristic of a second input signal. The resequencing occurs analyzing the characteristic in the second input signal, and modifying the first playback sequence of the first input signal based upon the analysis of the characteristic to generate a second playback sequence. Finally, a third signal is output using the second playback sequence. | 10-22-2009 |
20100318908 | USER INTERFACE FOR MEDIA PLAYBACK - A graphical user interface made up of icons representing individual files and collectively forming the shape of a āvā is described along with methods of using and creating the graphical user interface. The v-shaped interface is useful to display detailed information about many of the items in a list and facilitates manipulation of list order and selection of the active file in the list. The interface further permits the use of a representative icon associated with the list as a whole. Manipulation of the representative icon can cause modification or replacement of the entire playlist represented by the icon. | 12-16-2010 |
20100318928 | USER INTERFACE FOR MEDIA PLAYBACK - A graphical user interface made up of icons representing individual files and collectively forming the shape of a spiral is described along with methods of using and creating the graphical user interface. The spiral interface is useful to display detailed information about many of the items in a list and facilitates manipulation of list order and selection of the active file in the list. The interface further permits the use of a representative icon associated with the list as a whole. | 12-16-2010 |
20110051914 | DYNAMICALLY GENERATED RING TONES - A first input signal, which has a first playback sequence, is resequenced based upon a characteristic of a second input signal. The resequencing occurs analyzing the characteristic in the second input signal, and modifying the first playback sequence of the first input signal based upon the analysis of the characteristic to generate a second playback sequence. Finally, a third signal is output using the second playback sequence. The third signal can be a rearranged signal or a signal played at a different rate. Using the method, video ringtones can be generated on a mobile device when a call is received. | 03-03-2011 |
20110051991 | PIXEL ANALYSIS AND FRAME ALIGNMENT FOR BACKGROUND FRAMES - Background frames can be completed from a collection of frames having foreground objects that are partially obscuring the pixels comprising the background. The special offset of a pixel represented across a collection of frames can be determined based on camera movement data. By determining the relative offset of a pixel represented in a first frame from the same pixel in other frames, pixel values representing a background object can be accumulated to derive a completed background frame. | 03-03-2011 |
