Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for processing composite streaming video in connection with a centralized service. A request is received to initiate mixing a composite video live stream having a constituent stream quantity, one or more streaming video assets, and one or more media providers. If needed, one or more subsequent media servers are provisioned. The one or more constituent video streams and the one or more streaming video assets are received at a mixing server. The composite video live stream is rendered based thereon. The rendered composite video live stream is encoded into a standardized encoded video stream, which may be stored in one or more shared memories. The standardized encoded video stream is encoded into a provider-specific encoded media stream, which is then transmitted to a corresponding media provider.

Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are provided for audio rerouting to echo cancel audio in web browsers hosting video streams. Spoken audio from a presenter in a video stream may be received via a microphone on a presenter computing device using a first audio connection. Echo cancellation for the presenter may be enabled. Media audio from the presenter may be received originating from a second audio connection. In response to receiving the media audio, a loopback connection for the presenter may be created. In the loopback connection, the presenter may act as both the sender and receiver of the media audio. The loopback connection may have echo cancellation enabled and use the first audio connection. Once the loopback connection is created, the audio may be routed through the loopback connection. The audio may then be played out of an audio output device for the presenter with echo cancellation enabled.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for providing on-line healthcare, including receiving, over a network, symptom information for a patient from a person requesting healthcare, generating a health assessment based on the symptom information, and providing an on-line facility whereby a healthcare provider communicates over the network with the person requesting healthcare. The present invention further includes a system and method for ordering prescriptions over a network, transmitting the health assessment to a patient's personal physician over a network, and providing a physician referral for the patient. The present invention also provides for on-line follow-up with the patient after a health assessment is generated.
