Abstract: A lighting control device for controlling one or more lighting parameters of each of one or more light sources is disclosed. The lighting control device comprises at least a first user interaction element, an element appearance control unit, a light setting control unit, and a memory for saving at least a first light setting, the first light setting comprising values of the one or more lighting parameters. The light setting control unit is adapted to set the lighting parameters according to the first light setting in response to an input via the first user interaction element. The element appearance control unit is adapted to set a first appearance associated with the first user interaction element based on at least one of the lighting parameters of the first light setting. Corresponding system, use, methods and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method comprises transmitting an operate signal from a control system to an effects device, operating the effects device according to the operate signal, detecting an effect of the effects device, assigning a location to said effect, and storing the location of said effect. The effects device can comprise a lighting device, and the method can be repeated for multiple effects devices.

Abstract: A method of creating a bitstream comprises receiving video data, receiving auxiliary data, translating the auxiliary data according to a defined scheme, encoding the translated auxiliary data as one or more video frames, each frame substantially consisting of the encoded translated auxiliary data, and combining the video data and the encoded video frames into a bitstream. A device for carrying out the creation of the bitstream is disclosed, along with a corresponding handling method and device arranged to receive the bitstream.

Abstract: A method of operating a system of devices comprises receiving content to be rendered, receiving augmentation data for controlling one or more effects devices, rendering the content at a first device, controlling the or each effects devices according to the augmentation data in synchronization with the content rendering, monitoring the synchronization of the augmentation data, and adjusting the controlling of one or more effects devices if the synchronization of the augmentation data is determined to be in doubt.
