  • Devices and methods for switching and communication among multiple operating systems and application management methods thereof
    Patent number: 10775875
    Abstract: A device includes a storage unit and a processing unit. The processing unit includes a processor and is coupled to the storage unit. The processing unit operates a big operating system (BOS) and a little operating system (LOS) and can dynamically switch between the BOS and the LOS according to the system loading status of the device, wherein power consumption and resource requirements of the BOS are different than those of the LOS.

  • Apparatus and method for resuming playing of media source, and smart television
    Patent number: 10051334
    Abstract: The disclosure provides an apparatus and method for resuming playing of a media source, where if a smart televisions switches from a first media source to a second media source, then buffered video data after the position where the first media source is being played while it is being switched will be obtained and stored. Since the buffered video data can be played for a period of time longer than the playing-start time of the media source, if the smart television switches from the second media source back to the first media source, then the buffered video data will be played, and playing of the first media source will be resumed from the end position of the buffered video data in the media source.
