Abstract: The present principles generally relate to methods, systems and apparatus for electronic program listing processing and/or display. In particular, the present principles relate to providing (330) an electronic program listing (400; 500) or the like which is capable of indicating to viewers programs with different resolutions of content by using different resolutions, or degrees of sharpness or blurriness of graphical representations (401, 402, 403, 404, 405, 406, 407, 408, 409; 510, 520, 530, 540) corresponding to the plurality of programs on the electronic program listing (400; 500). This way, a viewer is able to recognize easily and quickly which of the programs are, e.g., ultra high definition (UHD), high definition (HD), or standard definition (SD), just by glancing at the electronic program listing (400; 500).

Abstract: The present principles generally relate to methods, systems and apparatus for electronic program listing processing and/or display (290). In particular, the present principles relate to providing an electronic program listing (295) or the like which is capable of indicating to viewers programs with high dynamic range (HDR) content differently than programs with non-high dynamic range content. In one exemplary embodiment, one or more program representations of an electronic program listing (295) representing one or more programs available in HDR format are displayed with higher brightness or luminance level than if the programs are available in non-HDR format. This way, a viewer is able to recognize easily and quickly which programs are HDR capable and which are not, just by glancing at the electronic program listing (295).

Abstract: Ways to control distribution and tracking of consumer information are described. Such tracking may be associated with user device (110) presence within a defined region (440). The user device provides at least one user interface (UI) (100) listing a set of information types to be tracked within the defined region. The UI includes a set of controllers (170) that are able to receive a set of user selections regarding distribution and tracking of the information types. The information types include location, identity recognition, and transaction information. Based on the set of user selections, collection and/or tracking of information may be performed (or not) depending on the states of each controller in the set of controllers.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for generating content representations is provided. Respective power consumption information for content is determined. Representations for the content at relative luminance levels based on the respective power consumption information are rendered for display. Additionally, recommendations for reducing power consumption of content to be presented on a playback device can be directed to a user.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium for translating three dimensional movements. An interface is generated to permit configuration of at least one parameter for translating three dimensional movements. Three dimensional movement is detected and translated in accordance with the at least one parameter. A translation of the three dimensional movement is generated with a displayable moving image.

Abstract: A multi-tier color look-up table (LUT) database system is provided. A first LUT can be stored in a database. First and second users can be granted access to the first LUT. The first and second users can have access to the first LUT for first and second periods of time, respectively. A second LUT can be stored in the database. The first user's access to the first LUT can be removed while the second user's access is maintained. The first and second users can be granted access to the second LUT. The first user can be granted a second access to the first LUT, and can have second access to the first LUT for a third period of time. The third period of time beginning after the end of the first period of time, with the second period of time overlapping with the first and third periods of time.

Abstract: A computing device presents a user interface in which graphical representations of content may be positioned based on user input. Inclusionary and exclusionary portions of metadata associated with the content may be ranked based on the positions and/or positional relationships of the graphical representations in the user interface. The computing device generates content recommendations based on the rankings. Presented content associated with the content recommendations may be provided to a user in response to selection of a content recommendation. The content recommendations may be modified in response to changes to the user interface received from a user.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for scoring an image based on visual criteria are described. A method includes computing a local blur map for the image, determining a bounding box in the image comprising a largest sharp region in the image based on the local blur map, scoring the image according to at least one of a ratio of bounding box size to image size, a ratio of the bounding box length to the bounding box height, a relative position of the bounding box in the image. Another method includes selecting an image among a plurality of images by scoring each image of the plurality of images according to the scoring method and selecting an image based on the score. The apparatus includes a memory and processor for performing the any of the selecting or the scoring method.

The third period of time beginning after the end of the first period of time, with the second period of time overlapping with the first and third periods of time.

Abstract: A method for previewing a color graded image commences by first obtaining color metadata corresponding to a sample image appearance selected by a user from among a set of different sample image appearances, each sample image appearance having associated color metadata. The color metadata corresponding to the selected sample image appearance is stored with an image file the user has selected for color grading. The color metadata corresponding to the selected sample image appearance is applied to the image file to generate a preview of the image file, as it would appear when color graded with the color metadata.
