Patent number: 11005903Abstract: A method and system for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Each segment of multiple segments is associated with at least two data blocks of multiple data blocks. The segments are sequenced according to a unique stream index for one stream associated with multimedia content. The unique stream index for the one stream is assigned a main index that describes multiple streams for the multimedia content. The multiple streams include the one stream. A request for content of the multimedia content is received. The request specifies a data chunk, of the multiple data chunks, that denotes the requested content. The main index is analyzed with respect to the specified data chunk to determine the stream and segments and/or data blocks therein that encompass the requested content. The determined stream and segments and/or data blocks therein are transmitted over the communication network in response to the request.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Zoltán Ponekker, Ákos Gyimesi, Balázs Vida, József Tamás Ecsédi, Dávid Simon, Sándor Lovász

Patent number: 10958703Abstract: A method and system for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Live multimedia content is divided into multiple data chunks. Each generated data chunk: has a first chunk size, is associated with a respective portion of the live multimedia content, and is indexed according to a time associated with the live multimedia content such that each data chunk is associated with a unique time at which each data chunk begins. The data chunks having the first chunk size are stored as the data chunks having the first chunk size are being generated. The stored data chunks having the first chunk size, starting at the one stored data chunk, are converted to data chunks having a second chunk size that differs from the first chunk size. The data chunks having the second chunk size are directly transmitted to a Content Delivery Network (CDN) for subsequent transmission a client device.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2019Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Akos Gyimesi, Gábor Nyerges, Gergely Hodicska, József Péter Kapusi, Balázs Vida, József Tamás Escédi, Gyula Fehér, Zoltán Attila Németh, Sándor Lovász, Dávid Simon

Patent number: 10771519Abstract: A method and system method for code testing in a video streaming network. A first broadcast stream including a first program containing video content is received by an ingest server of a live cluster of servers, wherein the live cluster of servers is deployed for providing streaming media programs to multiple user devices. The first broadcast stream is provided to one or more user devices. A copy of the first broadcast stream is provided to a device under test configured to test new code installed at the device under test via a processing of the first broadcast stream by the new code installed at the device under test. The device under test is a generic computer. Error performance of the device under test is monitored with respect to the installed new code's processing of the first broadcast stream.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2019Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Peter Lakos, Jozsef Ecsedi, Balazs Vida, Virag-Horvath Ori, Gergely Hodicska

Patent number: 10382508Abstract: A method and system method for code testing in a video streaming network, A first broadcast stream including a first program containing video content is received by an ingest server of a live cluster of servers, wherein the live cluster of servers is deployed for providing streaming media programs to multiple user devices. The first broadcast stream is provided to one or more user devices. The first broadcast stream is duplicated to generate a copy of the first broadcast stream. The copy of the first broadcast stream is provided to a device under test configured to test processing of the first broadcast stream by new code installed at the device under test. Error performance of the device under test is monitored with respect to the new code's processing of the first broadcast stream.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2016Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Peter Lakos, Jozsef Ecsedi, Balazs Vida, Virag-Horvath Ori, Gergely Hodicska

Patent number: 10356146Abstract: A method and device for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Data associated with multimedia content is received over the communication network. Portions of the data are processed into multiple data blocks. The multiple data blocks are associated with multiple segments by associating each segment with at least two data blocks of the multiple data blocks. The segments of the multiple segments are sequenced according to a stream index. The stream index is assigned to a main index that describes a set of streams for the multimedia content.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2016Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Zoltán Ponekker, Ákos Gyimesi, Balázs Vida, József Tamás Ecsédi, Dávid Simon, Sándor Lovász
