  • Publication number: 20240111556
    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein enable a guest operating system (OS) to access and use a media processing component configured on a host OS. The guest OS provides, via an API, a request to create an instance of the media processing component (e.g., a codec, an encryption/decryption component, a DRM component). In association with the request, the guest OS allocates space in memory for media data that is to be processed by the instance of the media processing component configured on the host OS. The guest OS stores the input media data in the allocated memory and provides, via the API, reference(s) to locations of the allocated memory. The reference(s) to the locations of the allocated memory enable the host OS to retrieve the input media data and process the input media data using the instance of the media processing component configured on the host OS.

  • Patent number: 11272045
    Abstract: An electronic display system comprises first and second display surfaces and a computer. Each of the first and second display surfaces is configured to receive and transmit display light from an emissive element. Each of the first and second display surfaces includes both a flat portion and an edge portion non-coplanar to the flat portion. The computer is configured to control the emissive elements of the first and second display surfaces so as to present a first section of a display image on the first display surface and a second section of the display image on the second display surface. In this example, one or more rows of the display image rendered on the flat portion of a display surface are rendered duplicatively on an edge portion.
