Abstract: The temperature control apparatus comprises a heat exchanging unit and a working fluid. The heat exchanging unit is independently disposed and divided into a first heat exchanging portion disposed at a first environment and a second heat exchanging portion disposed at a second environment. The heat exchanging unit has a plurality of heat-dissipating fins and a pipe running in the first heat exchanging portion and then running in the second heat exchanging portion. The pipe has an inlet and an outlet disposed in the first and second heat exchanging portions respectively. The pipe has a larger pipe diameter around the inlet and the outlet, and has a smaller pipe diameter away from the inlet and the outlet. The smaller pipe diameter of the pipe has the capillary function for regulating the pressure of the working fluid in the first and second heat exchanging portions.

Abstract: A touch display panel comprises a display module and a sensing electrode layer. The sensing electrode layer is disposed on the substrate of the display module and includes first sensing electrodes, second sensing electrode and wires. The first sensing electrodes are arranged along a longitudinal direction. The second sensing electrode is extended along the longitudinal direction and disposed beside the first sensing electrodes. The wires are electrically connected with the first sensing electrodes and include a plurality of wire segments which are extended alternately along a first extending direction and a second extending direction. The first sensing electrode includes a plurality of first slits, the first slits are extended along the first extending direction, the second extending direction or the combination thereof.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a method performed by a de-multiplexer that is coupled to a front-end stream buffer and a plurality of back-end video buffers. The front-end stream buffer is configured to buffer a plurality of video data units of a video stream. The video stream includes a plurality of subordinate video streams interleaved therein. Each of the back-end video buffers is configured to buffer the video information contained in a corresponding one of the subordinate video streams. First, the de-multiplexer determines whether it is blocked from fetching the video information of a first video data unit buffered in the front-end stream buffer. Then, if being blocked, the de-multiplexer skips accessing the first video data unit and instead fetches the video information of a second video data unit buffered in the front-end stream buffer.

Abstract: Methods for generating and playing a multimedia file and a recording medium storing the multimedia file are provided. In the generating method, multimedia data to be written in the multimedia file is generated, and then a media chunk for storing the multimedia data is generated. Next, a metadata chunk including metadata that describes the characteristics of the media chunk and the multimedia data is generated by analyzing the characteristics of the media chunk. Afterwards, the metadata chunk and the media chunk are written into the multimedia data file. When all the media chunks have been written, the multimedia file is scanned and the metadata chunks therein are read, such that an index table recording the relations among the multimedia data is generated in the multimedia file. Therefore, the procedure for generating the multimedia file is simplified and the time for preparing the play of the multimedia file is reduced.

Abstract: A method of multimedia file playback for an optical storage medium adapted for playing a multimedia file stored in the optical storage medium is disclosed. The multimedia file includes a playback information and a media data. The method includes the steps as follows: first, sorting the playback information to obtain a sorted playback information table; compressing the sorted playback information table into a plurality of compressed partitions; establishing a time index table used for recording the starting playback time of each compressed partition; and finally, decompressing the compressed partitions sequentially to read the media data according to the time index table, so as to play the multimedia file.
