  • Patent number: 11720244
    Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods that allow for capturing metadata associated with a drag-and-drop action. The metadata includes information about a participant of at least two participants connected, by a collaboration server, to a collaboration session via respective devices. The system and methods further introduce the concept of a meeting board. The collaboration server distributes to the respective devices media stream data representing a main display area and the meeting board section in a user interface screen associated with the collaboration session. Content items of the collaboration session are sequentially displayed in the main display area throughout the collaboration session and a portion of a content item that is drag-and-dropped from the main display area into the meeting board section remains on the meeting board section throughout the collaboration session.

  • Patent number: 10339323
    Abstract: According to an aspect, a computing device may include a media content handler to obtain media content, a group license manager to determine whether or not the media content is part of a license group, and when the media content is determined as part of the license group, the group license manager may determine whether a master key for the license group was previously received. The group license manager may send, over a network, a license request to a license manager when the master key was not previously received. The group license manager may receive, over the network, a license to permit access to the media content, where the license includes the master key. The computing device may include a key generator to derive a content key based on the master key, and a decryption unit to decrypt the media content using the derived content key.
