Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for integrating encoded identifiers (e.g., Quick Response (“QR”) codes) with changing arrangements into different video frames of a video in a manner that blends the encoded identifiers with the pixels, coloring, and/or pattern of the video frames and that allows a particular message to be decoded from each encoded identifier. The blended integration of encoded identifiers may include clustering a first set of images from a video based on an amount of variation in the first set of images, determining visual properties for pixels at a particular location within the first set of images, generating an identifier as a two-dimensional pattern with different colored blocks that encode a particular message using coloring that is derived from the visual properties for the pixels at the particular location, and integrating the identifier into the first set of images at the particular location.

Abstract: A method and system for synchronizing an audio signal and a video signal includes a source device receiving an audio-video signal comprising the audio signal and the video signal. The video signal has a video time stamp. The source device communicates the audio signal from the source device to a first sink device through a wireless network with a second time stamp and communicates the video signal to the second sink device with the video time stamp. The second sink device generates a synchronization (synch) signal and communicates the synch signal to the first sink device. The first sink device compares the synch signal to the second time stamp, adjusts a relative timing of the playback of the audio signal in response to comparing and generates an audible signal from the audio signal.
