Abstract: Different full screen content is displayed on the same television at the same time from the perspective of the viewer by displaying as the content as two full screen sequential frames. The different full screen content may be provided as a single combined frame signal such as a side-by-side, top-bottom, or checkerboard signal which is then displayed as two sequential full screen frames. Configured glasses such as polarized or shutter are used to view the different content as full screen content where one pair of configured glasses views an initial one of the sequential frames but blocks the subsequent one and another pair of configured glasses blocks the initial one of the sequential frames and views the subsequent one. Shutter glasses have both lenses open during the initial frame and both closed during the subsequent one. For polarized glasses, the initial frame has a polarization matching both lenses of one pair of glasses while the subsequent frame has a polarization that differs from both lenses.

Abstract: A remote control device used by a viewer to control content being displayed on a separate display device outputs content in response to instructing the device providing content to the separate display device to begin fast forwarding. The viewer of the separate display device may then be exposed to the content being output by the remote control device while the content to the separate display device is fast forwarding. Thus, the viewer may better perceive the content being output by the remote control device than the content being fast forwarded on the separate display device. The outputting of content may be by the remote control device providing video, a static display, and/or audio. Upon the remote control device instructing the fast forwarding at the display device to stop and return to a play mode, the remote control device terminates the outputting of the content from the remote control device.

Abstract: Commercial break content that is viewed during fast-forwarding through a commercial break is provided by embedding one or more frames of commercial break content at various points in time during a commercial break segment. During fast-forwarding, the video stream for at least some of those points in time are displayed by the recording device to the viewer. Accordingly, multiple occurrences of frames that have been embedded are displayed during the fast-forwarding such that the commercial break content expressed by the frames is conveyed to the viewer during the fast-forwarding period.

Abstract: A speaker system utilizes input from a transducer that receives an acoustical signal produced by a speaker that is separate from the speaker system. The acoustical signal is amplified and drives a speaker of the speaker system. The speaker system is thereby provided with the necessary electrical audio signal without the speaker system being wired into any existing sound system wiring. In automobiles, the transducer is in proximity to a speaker wired into the automobile's audio system, and the transducer obtains the acoustical signal to produce the electrical audio signal used by the speaker of the speaker system so that no access to high or low level electrical audio signals of the audio system of the automobile is necessary. Additionally, the speaker system may employ a power socket plug that is electrically coupled to the power input of the amplifier and that may be plugged into a power socket such as those typical of most vehicles to provide electrical power to the amplifier of the speaker system.
