  • Patent number: 12273573
    Abstract: Techniques and systems are provided for processing media data. For example, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media are described that can include receiving a multicast stream of media content, and dividing the multicast stream of media content into data fragments. In some cases, the multicast stream of media content can be transcoded from a first media format to a second media format. The data fragments can be transmitted, over one or more Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) channels using a web socket protocol, to a browser of the computing device for playback.

  • Patent number: 12088824
    Abstract: A method for decoding a bitstream comprising a sequence of encoded images. The method includes: obtaining first information from first encoded data contained in the bitstream; determining a list of coding parameters on the basis of the first information and of at least one predefined list of coding parameters; obtaining second information from second encoded data contained in the bitstream, the second information corresponding to a coding parameter among the coding parameters in the list of coding parameters; determining an element of a reconstructed image corresponding to an element of an image in the sequence of images, by means of the coding parameter corresponding to the second information and of encoded data representative of the element of the image in the sequence; wherein the size of the second encoded data depends on the number of coding parameters in the list of coding parameters.

  • Patent number: 11589133
    Abstract: A method for displaying media content on devices respectively linked to media players from a group of media players. The method includes the acts of: transmitting to the media players configuration data including data; transmitting data corresponding to the media content to at least one of the media players; transmitting to the media players data corresponding to a multicast address and to an entry port; selecting by the server a master media player among the at least one media player which received the data corresponding to the media content; sending by the master media player a multicast media stream using the multicast address and the entry port, the multicast media stream being obtained by the master media player from the data corresponding to the media content.
