Patent number: 9843765Abstract: A receiver device for use in conjunction with an MCDN includes a computer readable storage resource, a controller to execute stored instructions, a network interface coupling the device to the MCDN, and a decoder to decode streaming multimedia content received via the network interface. The receiver includes a remote control interface to detect a remote control command from a remote control device and a handset interface to communicate audio data with a handset device. A local video interface receives video data from a camera or other local video resource. The stored instructions include, a remote control application to execute remote control commands, a handset module to communicate audio date with the handset device, and a session initiation module to establish a video conferencing session. A video conferencing module integrates the audio data and the video data and communicates the integrated data via the video conferencing session.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2012Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Anup D.

Patent number: 8611519Abstract: A disclosed application server and method are operable to enable a user to access and modify a remote user profile stored on or otherwise accessible to the application server. The user profile identifies the user's CPE devices and information indicative of priority based call handling rules defined by the user. The profile may also include priority levels assigned by the user to selected telephone numbers. The application server downloads a user's profile information to the CPE devices identified in the profile, which may include multiple CPE devices that operate on different telecommunications networks, for example, VoIP networks, wireless cellular networks, and/or traditional TDM networks. The application server communicates the profile information to the CPE devices defined in the profile. In the case of a TDM phone, the application server uses an intermediary, such as a central office or Service Node, to implement the service on behalf of a TDM telephone.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2007Date of Patent: December 17, 2013Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Jyotindra N.

Patent number: 7810117Abstract: A method of organizing video content includes receiving video content title amendment data at a video content organizing server from a set-top box device. The video content title amendment data indicates that a first title of the video content has been changed to a second title of the video content. The method also includes receiving a request at the video content organizing server from a remote device to access data relating to the video content. Further, the method includes sending video content second title data to the remote device in response to receiving the request. The video content second title data indicates the second title of the video content.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2007Date of Patent: October 5, 2010Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Anup Karnalkar, Jyotindra N.
