Patent number: 11722753Abstract: Receiving and processing out-of-band (OOB) data along with a media stream is disclosed. The received OOB data can be extracted from an OOB data stream and correlated with the media stream using timestamps. Display and other operations can then be performed when a timestamp of the OOB data matches a current timestamp of the media stream. In addition, timestamp notification requests can be received and processed such that when the current timestamp of the media stream matches a requested timestamp, a notification can be transmitted, and data can be received in response to the notification.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2019Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: William M. Bumgarner, Blake Seely, Christopher L. Oklota, Dale A. Taylor, Eswar Priyadarshan

Publication number: 20230012482Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method includes obtaining a media composition for display on an electronic display device is obtained. The media composition includes a plurality of layers, with each layer including a visual element. The method also includes selecting at least some of the layers of the media composition to have a parallax effect applied thereto and determining an amount of total parallax effect to apply to the selected layers. Also, the method includes determining an appropriate amount of offset to apply to each of the selected layers on an individual basis and shifting the selected layers in one or more directions by their respective appropriate amounts. Moreover, the method includes displaying the media composition showing the parallax effect on the electronic display device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 25, 2022Publication date: January 19, 2023Inventors: Jose J.

Patent number: 11190856Abstract: Time-based events and other metadata that can be added to a media stream to enable downstream systems to enhance the viewing experience are disclosed. The events are given time attributes that establish their location in the media stream so that regardless of where the playhead is located within the media stream, the events that are active at that point in time can be identified and synchronized with the playhead. In addition, a master clock can be used to update a stream timeline associated with the media stream to account for differences between the expected and actual duration of advertisements inserted into the media stream.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2019Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: William M.

Publication number: 20210094115Abstract: A welding power supply having an adjustable cover is disclosed. The welding power supply includes an enclosure housing an engine, a porous radiator thermally coupled to the engine, and a fan configured to propel air through the radiator. A ventilation opening is in fluid communication with the fan and radiator. The fan is configured to move heated air along an air path and out of the ventilation opening. The air may be heated by the welding power supply components (e.g. engine, radiator, charge air cooler, oil cooler, compressor, generator, weld circuitry, and/or other components), for example. The adjustable cover is positioned over the ventilation when in a fully closed and/or partially open/closed position. The adjustable cover may be moved between fully closed, partially open/closed, and fully open positions. The amount of air that is allowed to exit the enclosure, and the amount of air that is recirculated within the enclosure, may be altered by adjusting the position of the adjustable cover.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2020Publication date: April 1, 2021Inventors: Timothy Dale Taylor, David Radtke
