  • Reusable media sources for online broadcast data
    Patent number: 9167316
    Abstract: A broadcaster-specific service module is provided for applications hosted by a processing device. The broadcaster-specific service module and the applications communicate through a common service bus. The broadcaster-specific service module receives items from an online broadcaster via a network, with each item associated with a media file or stream available from the online broadcaster. The broadcaster-specific service module generates a catalog containing a tree of the items, and sends the catalog to a target application via the service bus to display the catalog for user selection. The broadcaster-specific service module formats data of the catalog can be understood by all of the applications attached to the service bus.

  • Device setup extension for applications
    Patent number: 8655275
    Abstract: A first wireless device is configured to be used with a second wireless device. The configuration is performed after the first wireless device establishes a connection with the second wireless device. The first wireless device identifies services supported by the second wireless device without user intervention, and passes identified services to a plugin system in the first wireless device. The plugin system includes plugins that are associated with the identified services. The plugins present configuration options that are associated with the identified services via a user interface. From the user interface, the first wireless device receives a selection of the configuration options and is configured according to the selection.

  • Simplified pairing for wireless devices
    Patent number: 8650613
    Abstract: A first wireless device is paired with a second wireless device for communication over a wireless connection. The first wireless device receives an input that indicates a device identifier of the second wireless device, and then matches the device identifier with one of the data entries in a data repository to obtain a code of the second wireless device without user interactions. The data repository contains a plurality of data entries associating a plurality of wireless devices with their corresponding codes. Based on the code of the second wireless device, the first wireless device authenticates the second wireless device and establishes the wireless connection.
