Patent number: 7818355Abstract: A system for managing media files having different format characteristics includes a transcoder, a content store, and a plurality of clients. The content store is capable of storing a media file in a first format. The clients are each associated with one or more media file formats and capable of playing media files to users. The transcoder is capable of receiving a request identifying a media file from a first client and, in response to receiving the request, retrieving the media file from the content store in a first format. The transcoder is also operable of modifying the media file from the first format to a second format associated with the first client and, while modifying the media file from the first format to the second format, transmitting a modified portion of the media file to the first client.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2007Date of Patent: October 19, 2010Inventors: Brendon W.

Patent number: 7170854Abstract: In a method for providing protection switching in a voice-over-broadband (VOB) gateway, egress traffic is multicast from a switch fabric to a working port and to a protection port. The working port forwards the egress traffic to a network in a working mode of operation, and the protection port forwards the egress traffic to the network in a protection mode of operation. Also, the working port forwards ingress traffic to the switch fabric in the working mode of operation, and the protection port forwards the ingress traffic to the switch fabric in the protection mode of operation. In one aspect, ingress traffic is forwarded from the protection port and not from the working port in the protection mode of operation. In another aspect, the working port and the protection port share status information, and the status information is used to select between the working mode of operation and the protection mode of operation.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2001Date of Patent: January 30, 2007Assignee: GenBand Inc.Inventors: Jason P. Orrell, Cuong T. Nguyen, Anthony H. Anconetani
