Abstract: A sidelink connection is created between each device of a plurality of devices. A first device connected to a content source retrieves a manifest file for the media from the content source. The first device then notifies other devices, including a second device not connected to the content source, that the manifest file is available from the first device. Based on connection metrics of each device, it is determined which of the devices has the highest quality connection to the content source. If, for example, the first device is determined to have the highest quality connection, then the first devices retrieves a segment of the media from the content source, stores the segment in a cache of the first device, and delivers the segment to other devices in response to requests for the segment received from each device.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a substrate film having a first side and a second side, and a number of light sources configured to emit light. A plastic lightguide layer is molded onto the first side of the substrate film. The plastic lightguide layer being of optically at least translucent material to transmit light. The device also includes a masking layer provided on the outer surface of the plastic lightguide layer. The masking layer defines a window for letting the light emitted by the embedded light sources to pass through the masking layer towards the environment.

Abstract: A sidelink connection is created between each device of a plurality of devices. If the sidelink connection quality is not sufficient to transmit a first version of a segment encoded at a first quality level, a lower quality version of the segment may also be retrieved. The lower quality version of the segment may be retrieved by a different device than the device that retrieved the first version of the segment. If the segment is requested from a first device by a second device and the sidelink connection between the first device and the second device is not sufficient to transmit the first version of the segment, the first device may cause transmission of the lower quality version of the segment retrieved by a third device to the second device.
