Abstract: Methods, systems and machine readable storage medium for allowing playback of streaming media at playback rates of other than IX are described. In one embodiment, a method can determine different sets of I-frames that are available before a display deadline, where each set can have a different cadence, and one of the sets can be selected for download and display to achieve playback at other than IX. Byte range requests from a client device can be used to retrieve each of the I-frames. Other methods, system and media are also described.

Abstract: A content streaming system, such as an HTTP streaming system, can use a variant audio playlist that identifies different audio playlists, such as one playlist in English and one playlist in Spanish, for the same program such as a video program which is specified by a video playlist which can be separate from the variant audio playlist. A client can use the variant audio playlist to select a particular audio content for the same program, and the particular audio content can be referred to by one URL in the variant audio playlist, among a set of alternative URLs, in the variant audio playlist, for alternative audio content.

Abstract: Methods, systems and machine readable storage medium for allowing playback of streaming media at playback rates of other than 1X are described. In one embodiment, a method can determine different sets of I-frames that are available before a display deadline, where each set can have a different cadence, and one of the sets can be selected for download and display to achieve playback at other than 1X. Byte range requests from a client device can be used to retrieve each of the I-frames. Other methods, system and media are also described.

Abstract: A graphic display module operating on a first device prepares graphic data to be displayed on a wirelessly connected display adapter that includes graphics processing capability. The display adapter transmits metadata to the graphic display module that includes the graphic processing capabilities of the display adapter. The graphic display module uses the metadata, and possibly the available bandwidth, to selectively delegate graphic processing tasks to the display adapter.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for processing media data for transmission in a data cornmunication medium and for use with data processing Systems. One exemplary method processes readable content stored in a stream or set of data which contains samples for presenting a presentation (e.g. video only or audio only or video and audio together) at a plurality of scales of scalable content. A second stream is derived from a first stream, where the second stream contains references to the first stream for use in selecting data, for an operating point within the scalable content, from the first stream. In one aspect of this method, references contained in the second stream are accessed to transmit or störe the data from the first stream.

Abstract: Video data with high frame rates may be displayed on devices with limited resources (e.g., decoder and/or display resources). These devices may have their resources devoted to other tasks or may not be capable to display the video data at the high frame rates. The coding method may include coding the frames such that additional droppable frames are included in the encoded video data. The decoding method may include dropping droppable frames before the encoded video data is decoded to reduce the number of frames that will be decoded and displayed. These methods may be applied to video data that has a variable frame rate and may be combined with processing the image sequence for slow motion playback.
