  • INCORPORATING USER-RECORDED FEEDBACK INTO MEDIA BROADCAST
    Publication number: 20240129573
    Abstract: A processing system receives a user-generated media recording, and metadata associated with the user-generated feedback, from a first device. The user-generated media recording is a recording of the public end-user captured during a live media broadcast using a public-user interface on the first device. The metadata includes information linking the user-generated media recording to the live media broadcast. The system stores the user-generated media recording and the first metadata in one or more storage devices, and transmits a version of the user-generated media recording and at least a portion of the first metadata to a private-user interface on a second device. The private-user interface is configured to receive input from a private end-user selecting the version of the user-generated media recording for broadcast during the same live media broadcast during which the user-generated media recording was created.

  • Apparatus, system, and method for improving equalization with a software equalization algorithm
    Patent number: 9575922
    Abstract: A system and method consistent with the present disclosure includes determining a jitter tolerance of a particular lane of a communication link corresponding to each of a plurality of equalization coefficients. Further, determining a particular equalization coefficient of the plurality of equalization coefficients that provides a maximum jitter tolerance. Next, using the particular equalization coefficient for the particular lane of the communication link during operation based on determining the particular equalization coefficient which provides the maximum jitter tolerance.
