Patent number: 8116301Abstract: The present invention is embodied in a digital communication system where multiple media data sources are time multiplexed into a packetized data stream, each packet having an assigned priority and the packetized data stream transmitted in substantially the order of assigned priority. At both the transmit side, and the receive side, audio packets are given priority processing over video packets, which in turn have priority over text/graphics data packets. Continuous real time audio playback is maintained at the receiver by delaying the playback of received audio in a first in/first out (FIFO) buffer providing a delay at least equal to the predicted average packet delay for the communication system. Optionally, the average system delay is continuously monitored, and the audio playback delay time is adjusted accordingly. Audio playback is slowed or accelerated in order to shrink or grow the difference in time between the sender and receiver.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2006Date of Patent: February 14, 2012Assignee: RPX CorporationInventors: Andreas Richter, Ogden Cartwright Reed, Jr.

Publication number: 20110167390Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for interacting with digital media that permits creating, editing, combining, producing, and using digital media content. In one aspect of the invention, these features are implemented using a “virtual container” or unit that contains structured information. This structured information includes the software, metadata and content required to use the content on a wide array of platforms, without software installations and without required net access or complex DRM interaction. Additional aspects of the invention extend the above described functionality and universality by enabling new ways to use the platform and link interested and connected parties so that consumers can interact with the product, create or mashup new products, or monetize their content.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2011Publication date: July 7, 2011Applicant: Ingram DV LLCInventors: Ogden Cartwright Reed, JR., Thomas W.

Patent number: 7075924Abstract: Methods for media communication in a digital communication system. In one embodiment, the media comprises a plurality of media types (including for example audio, video, and/or data packets), and the system includes a processing apparatus for establishing communication between first and second callers over respective first and second communication mediums, which include one or more packet-switched communication channels. The method comprises using a connection routine of the processing apparatus to enable media type selections by the callers, and transmitting, via the processing apparatus, a plurality of media packets corresponding to each of the selected media types.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2004Date of Patent: July 11, 2006Assignees: BTG International Inc., Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Andreas Richter, Ogden Cartwright Reed, Jr.

Patent number: 7050425Abstract: Apparatus for media communication in a communication system. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises: a processor; and a routine running on the processor for negotiating with the remote processing machine a selection of at least one media type using a media type selection protocol that supports the description of a plurality of media types including audio, video and data, and to configure, according to the selection, the apparatus to process media data packets received from and to be transmitted to the remote processing machine over a packet switched network.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2004Date of Patent: May 23, 2006Assignees: BTG International Inc., Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Andreas Richter, Ogden Cartwright Reed, Jr.
