Abstract:
Methods and arrangements in a client node and a server node support a decision on decoding and playout of a certain content in the client node. The methods and arrangements relate to the determining, conveying and obtaining of information related to the characteristics (level) required for decoding and playing out the certain media content at a non-regular playout rate. The method and arrangement in the client node further relate to determining, based on the obtained information, which playout rate(s) is/are supported by the client node in regard of level. The methods and arrangements enable the client node to refrain from attempting to decode and play out of the content at a non-regular rate requiring a level which is not supported by the client node.
Abstract:
In a method for media session management a user terminal upon detecting S0, S00 switching to a media stream on a channel from a unicast transport source, requesting S1 transmission of the media stream by indicating a predetermined starting frame for the transmission and a media server transmitting S2 the requested media frame starting with a media frame as indicated in the request.
Abstract:
A web application (630) for a web browser that is downloaded as a web page includes a set of links arranged as a matrix array (633) with the links being invisible on a display of a device running the web browser, and scripting logic (635) for maintaining focus of a navigator of the device on a center one of the links in the matrix array and for updating the web browser to reflect a function associated with an activation of the navigator.
Abstract:
A border region (70) is identified in an image (40) by calculating an average of pixel values in a row (20) or column (10) of the image (40). Differences in property values are determined between each pixel (30) in the row (20) or column (10) and a neighboring pixel (30) present on a same column (10) or row (20) but in a neighboring row (20) or column (10). An average difference is calculated based on these differences. The pixels (30) in the row (20) or column (10) are classified as belonging to a border region (70) or internal region (75) of the image (40) based on the average pixel value and the average pixel difference.
Abstract:
In video encoding and decoding predictions may be generated by intra-frame prediction. Intra-frame prediction uses reconstructed pixels in a reconstructed frame. Intra-frame prediction is performed by extending the reconstructed pixels into a predicted block using intra-frame prediction modes, each intra-frame prediction mode indicating a direction of the extension. In order to reduce the number of possible intra- frame prediction modes, a subset is selected from a predetermined set of possible intra- frame prediction modes. A subset of intra-frame prediction modes can be created by forming preselection sets of intra-frame prediction modes on the basis of similarity of their associated predicted blocks and selecting a representative intra-frame prediction mode from each preselection set.
Abstract:
In a method of enabling representation switching during HTTP streaming sessions in a communication system, arranging (S10) available representations into groups, providing (S20) information identifying the groups and their respective representations, and switching (S30) representation based on the provided group identify information.
