20110044601 | METHOD FOR PLAY SYNCHRONIZATION AND DEVICE USING THE SAME - A method for play synchronization and a device using the same are provided. A first device stores time-based content play information. The first device plays content according to the time-based content play information. The first device transmits the time-based content play information to a second device so that the second device plays the content according to the time-based content play information. Accordingly, the content played by one device can be played by another device concurrently. | 02-24-2011 |
20110229106 | SYSTEM FOR PLAYBACK OF ULTRA HIGH RESOLUTION VIDEO USING MULTIPLE DISPLAYS - Provided is a system for playback of ultra high resolution video using multiple displays. The system comprises multiple image decoders for decoding each of multiple image files to provide the decoded images to each of multiple displays; management server to provide multiple image files; and relay transmitter to receive the multiple image files from the management server and then distribute the multiple image files to corresponding multiple decoders, wherein the relay transmitter receives display delay time and decoding order for the image files from the management server, and broadcasts the relay time and decoding start order to the multiple image decoders, and each of multiple image decoders decodes corresponding image file in accordance with the decoding start order, respectively, and provides the decoded image to each of multiple displays after delay time. | 09-22-2011 |
20110243522 | MEDIA DATA PLAYBACK DEVICE AND REPLAY METHOD THEREOF - A media data playback device is capable of simultaneously parsing and decoding two different sections of streaming media, one of which comprises a replay section. The device shows replay progress of the replay section on a progress bar and allows switching positions during replaying of the replay section. | 10-06-2011 |
20120082424 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SYNCHRONIZING CONTENT PLAYBACK - An approach for facilitating the playback of content concurrently on multiple devices is described. A time reference associated with a first device is provided to a synchronization platform for corresponding to playback of content on the first device. The synchronization platform also receives a request from a second device to synchronize concurrent playback of a version of the content on the second device. Timing information is generated for transmission to the second device in response to the request for enabling the second device to playback its version of the content in synchronization with that of the first device. | 04-05-2012 |
20130163945 | VIDEO SIGNAL OUTPUT METHOD AND VIDEO INFORMATION PLAYER DEVICE - A video information player device ( | 06-27-2013 |
20140193131 | CONTENT DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AND CONTENT DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD - [Problem] In a system for transmitting content data from a content reproducing apparatus to a content output apparatus, no complicated signal processing is required, setting change operations can be simplified, and the degradation of sound quality and the degradation of picture quality of video data are prevented. [Solution] There are included: a content reproducing apparatus that receives an operation clock signal from a content output apparatus via an operation clock transmission cable, operates on the basis of the operation clock signal, and transmits content data, which has been reproduced by a reproducing unit, to the content output apparatus via a multimedia transmission cable; and the content output apparatus that generates, on the basis of an output apparatus operation clock signal, the operation clock signal to be transmitted to the content reproducing apparatus, transmits the operation clock signal to the content reproducing apparatus reproducing apparatus via the operation clock transmission cable, receives the content data from the content reproducing apparatus via the multimedia transmission cable, and performs a signal processing of the received content data for output to an external apparatus. | 07-10-2014 |
20140334794 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SYNCHRONISING CONTENT ON A SECOND SCREEN - The present disclosure is directed towards a method and system for synching content on a second screen with content being displayed on a first or primary screen. The method and system of the present disclosure supports multiple synching mechanisms as well as prioritization between the different multiple synching mechanism. | 11-13-2014 |
20150036994 | Obtaining Content from Direct Source and Remote Source - Examples include a playback device with a network interface and memory with program instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the playback device to (a) receive, via the network interface from a network device communicatively coupled to the playback device over a local area network (LAN), an address identifying a network location of first audio information available at an audio information source, where the audio information source is outside of the LAN, (b) obtain, via the network interface from the audio information source, the first audio information, (c) receive, from a second audio information source connected to the playback device via a direct communication link, second audio information, and (d) play back one of the first audio information and the second audio information. | 02-05-2015 |
20160078903 | SHARING AND SYNCHRONIZING CONTENT - A device may provide a video content item for display and receive a request to share the video content item with another device for a synchronized playing of the video content item by the device and the other device. The device may generate a stream of the video content item based on a point within the video content item currently played by the device and transmit the stream to the other device to synchronize playing of the video content item by the device and the other device. The device may obtain information identifying a particular point within the video content item currently played by the other device, determine a synchronization point, in the video content item, based on the obtained information, and update, based on the synchronization point, to synchronize the stream. The device may transmit the synchronized stream, to the other device, to re-synchronize playing of the video content item. | 03-17-2016 |
20160111128 | CREATING COMPOSITION OF CONTENT CAPTURED USING PLURALITY OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES - Disclosed is a master electronic device configured to create a composition based on content captured using a plurality of client electronic devices. The master electronic device may include each of a communication module, a playback module, a touch-enabled input module and a composition module. The communication module may be configured to receive a plurality of content streams from a plurality of client electronic devices. The playback module may be configured to synchronously playback the plurality of content streams. The touch-enabled input module may be configured to receive one or more composition-inputs during the playback of the content. The one or more composition-inputs may correspond to a selection of a content stream to be included in a composition. Accordingly, the composition module may be configured to create the composition based on the one or more composition-inputs. | 04-21-2016 |
