Publication number: 20230283817Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for controlling data such as content and/or application data transmitted to one or more user devices. One method can comprise receiving a request for first content and generating, in response to the request for the first content, a first transport stream comprising the first content and application data relating to a first application. At least a portion of the first transport stream is transmitted to a recipient device. An interruption in the transmission of the first transport stream is detected and a determination is made that only a first portion of the application data has been transmitted to the recipient device. A second transport stream including second content and a second portion of the application data is generated and transmitted.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Shawn O'MALLEY, Jeremy ZAUCHA, Michael ROSENWALD, Ruifeng ZHANG

Patent number: 11626110Abstract: A computing device may be configured to receive a content asset and to determine whether the content asset comprises one or more triggers. The trigger may be a word, phrase, or passcode that alerts a voice activated device to the presence of a voice command and may serve as an instruction to the voice activated device to cause execution of the voice command. In response to determining that the content asset comprises one or more triggers, the computing device may be configured to insert one or more signal markers into the content asset at a location corresponding to the one or more triggers, and to cause transmission and/or presentation of the content asset with the one or more signal markers. The signal markers may cause a voice activated device to ignore a voice command in the content asset, despite the presence of one or more triggers.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2021Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Shawn O'Malley, Michael Rosenwald, Jeremy Zaucha
