摘要： A terminal for decoding and presenting encoded realtime and non-realtime interactive program guide (IPG) content including a realtime video portion and a non-realtime guide graphics portion. The terminal includes a demodulator operative to receive and demodulate a modulated signal to provide a transport stream, and a transport demultiplexer coupled to the demodulator and operative to receive and process the transport stream to provide a sequence of transport packets re-timestamped to synchronize encoded realtime content and encoded non-realtime content included therein. At least one video decoder is coupled to the transport demultiplexer and operative to receive and decode the encoded realtime and non-realtime contents to recover the realtime and non-realtime contents for the user interface.

摘要： A system for creating composite encoded video from two or more encoded video sources in the encoded domain. In response to user input, a markup language-based graphical layout is retrieved. The graphical layout includes frame locations within a composite frame for at least a first encoded source and a second encoded source. The system either retrieves or receives the first and second encoded sources. The sources include block-based transform encoded data. The system also includes a stitcher module for stitching together the first encoded source and the second encoded source according to the frame locations of the graphical layout to form an encoded frame. The system outputs an encoded video stream that is transmitted to a client device associated with the user. In response to further user input, the system updates the state of an object model and replaces all or a portion of one or more frames of the encoded video stream. The system may be used with MPEG encoded video.

摘要： Systems and methods to dynamically convert Web content to an interactive program for display on resource constrained television clients are described. In particular, a head-end server in a digital television entertainment system downloads the Web content from an external data source. The head-end server dynamically transcodes the downloaded content into an interactive walled garden program (iWGP) that includes MPEG stills and metadata for delivery to a client in the television entertainment system.

摘要： A method and apparatus for combining video frame sequences with a video display of an interactive program guide (IPG). The apparatus comprises a plurality of compositors that combine background information, video frame sequences and program guide graphics into a single video frame sequence. The sequence is then digitally encoded to form an MPEG-like bitstream. The same background information and informational video is composited with a different program guide graphic to form another video sequence that is also encoded. A plurality of such sequences are produced with each sequence having a different program guide graphic. Each sequence is encoded and then multiplexed into a transport stream such that all the encoded sequences are transmitted to a subscriber's terminal using a single transport stream. As such, the subscriber can transition from one program guide to the next without interruption of the background or video display as the program guide graphic is changed.

摘要： Encoding functionality is described for producing encoded intra (I) pictures and predictive (P) pictures for consumption by an application running on a set-top box. The encoding functionality includes a pre-processing module which marks regions that should not be updated with a predetermined color code. An encoding module receives the output of the pre-processing module, and, in the event that the output contains the predetermined color code, produces a predictive (P) picture. In the predictive (P) picture, the encoding module produces macroblocks having zero motion vector and zero difference (or skipped macroblocks) corresponding to regions that were marked by the pre-processing module with the predetermined color code. The encoding module produces intra macroblocks for other regions of the picture (corresponding to update regions).
摘要翻译：描述了用于产生编码的帧内（I）图像和预测（P）图像以供运行在机顶盒上的应用程序消耗的编码功能。编码功能包括预处理模块，其标记不应用预定颜色代码更新的区域。编码模块接收预处理模块的输出，并且在输出包含预定颜色代码的情况下，产生预测（P）图像。在预测（P）图像中，编码模块产生具有零运动矢量和零差（或跳过的宏块）的宏块，对应于由预处理模块用预定颜色代码标记的区域。编码模块为图像的其他区域（对应于更新区域）产生帧内宏块。

摘要： A system and method for efficient delivery of video segments. One embodiment relates to the delivery of short-time duration video segments. The video segments may be delivered as part of a media-rich interactive program guide (IPG) or for some other application. The system and method provides a viewer with access to a video segment starting at its beginning (or any other selectable point within the video segment). Such access may be provided using a server-centric interactive technique. The server-centric technique may involve use of a demand-cast system and method. Demand-cast messaging may occur between a session manager, transport stream generator, and terminal. For example, a video object on a screen may be activated by a viewer using a remote control for a terminal. Activation of the object may cause transmission of a request from the terminal to a session manager for a video segment corresponding to the object. In response to the request, the session manager may initiate a process to accomplish delivery of the video segment from a transport stream generator to the terminal.
摘要翻译：一种用于高效传送视频片段的系统和方法。一个实施例涉及短时间段视频片段的传送。视频段可以作为媒体丰富的交互式节目指南（IPG）或其他一些应用的一部分来传送。该系统和方法为观众提供从其开始（或视频片段中的任何其他可选点）开始的视频片段的访问。可以使用以服务器为中心的交互技术来提供这种访问。以服务器为中心的技术可能涉及使用需求转换系统和方法。会话管理器，传输流发生器和终端之间可能发生请求转移消息。例如，屏幕上的视频对象可以由观看者使用终端的遥控器激活。对象的激活可能导致从终端向与对象相对应的视频片段的会话管理器发送请求。响应于该请求，会话管理器可以启动完成从传输流发生器到终端的视频段的传递的过程。

摘要： Techniques for targeting advertisements based on consumer purchasing data are described. Consumer purchasing data is used to generate a profile associated with a subscriber to a broadcast television system. Consumer profile characteristics may also be associated with an advertisement that is to be targeted. Prior to broadcasting a targeted advertisement, a message is broadcast that notifies a client device of the consumer profile characteristics associated with the upcoming targeted advertisement. If the consumer profile characteristics associated with the targeted advertisement match the subscriber profile associated with the subscriber of the client device, then the client device tunes to an alternate data stream over which the targeted advertisement is broadcast. Otherwise, a default advertisement is received over the originally tuned data stream.
