摘要： A method and apparatus for representing allocation of capacity of a storage unit within an audio/video (AV) recording device is described. In one example, a quantity of AV program data stored on the storage unit is determined. A storage schedule for new AV program data that is defined over a predetermined time period is obtained. A deletion schedule for old AV program data that is defined over the predetermined time period is obtained. Temporally dynamic indicia is produced that is representative of allocation of the capacity of the storage unit over the predetermined time period in response to the quantity of stored AV program data, the storage schedule, and the deletion schedule. A pictorial representation of the temporally dynamic indicia may then be displayed on a display coupled to the AV recording device.

摘要： Apparatus for controlling the downloading conditions of software objects from a carousel server to a population of remotely-located, in-service, software-configurable consumer devices communicating via a network is disclosed. The apparatus includes an electronic controller programmed to automatically generate an announcement over the network to a target population of consumer devices. The announcement concerns the availability of a software object loaded for download on the carousel server. The controller receives replies from the target population of consumer devices and analyzes the replies to determine a quantity of the consumer devices in the target population that require the download and to determine an optimal allocation of bandwidth for the download based on information provided by the replies. A download system and method are also provided.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于控制软件对象从轮播服务器到通过网络进行通信的远程位置，在役，可软件配置的消费者设备的群体的下载条件的装置。该装置包括被编程为通过网络自动生成消费者设备的目标群体的电子控制器的电子控制器。该公告涉及加载用于在轮播服务器上下载的软件对象的可用性。控制器从消费者设备的目标群体接收回复并分析答复以确定需要下载的目标群体中的消费者设备的数量，并且基于由该回复提供的信息来确定用于下载的带宽的最佳分配。还提供了一种下载系统和方法。

摘要： A caption formatting method and computing system that receives an input video stream that includes a sequence of input transport stream packets. The method locates user data in the sequence of input transport stream packets, where the user data includes input caption data compliant with an input caption data format. The method extracts EIA-608 captions and EIA-708 captions from the input caption data, and formats the EIA-608 captions as caption data compliant with SCTE-20 format. The method creates a sequence of output transport stream packets based on the sequence of input transport stream packets, where the sequence of output transport stream packets include the caption data compliant with SCTE-20 format and the input caption data. The method sends an output video stream from the computing device, where the output video stream includes the sequence of output transport stream packets.
摘要翻译：一种字幕格式化方法和计算系统，其接收包括一系列输入传输流分组的输入视频流。该方法以输入传输流分组的顺序定位用户数据，其中用户数据包括符合输入字幕数据格式的输入字幕数据。该方法从输入字幕数据中提取EIA-608字幕和EIA-708字幕，并将EIA-608标题格式化为符合SCTE-20格式的字幕数据。该方法基于输入传输流分组的顺序创建输出传输流分组的序列，其中输出传输流分组的序列包括符合SCTE-20格式的字幕数据和输入字幕数据。该方法从计算设备发送输出视频流，其中输出视频流包括输出传输流分组的序列。

摘要： A system, method and computer readable medium are described that issue ending reminders to users. As a user goes through his day, he will be reminded of the beginning of the events he has entered into his calendar. The described systems, methods and programs stored on computer readable medium also allow reminders to be issued at or near the end of certain events. This can typically be used by parents to remind them to pick up their children after their children finish an event such as athletic practice.

摘要： A system and method for distributing targeted advertisements in a switched digital video system. The method monitors a content stream associated with a channel selected by a subscriber, where the content stream includes an advertisement segment having a start time and an end time, and an advertisement replacement opportunity inserted in the content stream. The method detects the advertisement replacement opportunity at a detection time that is prior to the start time of the advertisement segment, and sends a request to select an advertisement replacement for the advertisement segment, thereby broadcasting a service associated with the advertisement replacement prior to the start time for the advertisement segment. The method receives tune data to identify an advertisement replacement stream associated with the advertisement replacement, and tunes to the advertisement replacement at the start time for the advertisement segment.
