  • Computer console for throttling the video bitrate of video streams to interface with an electronic device
    Patent number: 11636801
    Abstract: An exemplary computer console can generate one or more video streams having image data relating to an image or a series of images, also referred to as video, to be presented by an electronic display device. The exemplary computer console can provide the one or more video streams to the electronic display device over one or more transport streams. The exemplary computer console can effectively throttle a video stream bitrate of the one or more video streams to be less than of the standard defined transport stream bitrate of the one or more transport streams to allow the transport of the one or more video streams over the one or more transport streams.
