Abstract: Using multimedia data for both continuous playback and streaming playback purposes, including: encoding an elementary stream of multimedia content into a fixed length of a group of pictures; multiplexing the encoded multimedia content into a transport stream; locating data offsets of each GOP header inside the transport stream; and uploading the data offsets along with the transport stream to a server. Continuous and streaming playback of multimedia content.

Abstract: Capturing playback key events to override a default behavior of key strokes during playback, includes: receiving a user operation initiated by a user; receiving a notice that a non-default behavior of the key strokes is being masked; notifying the user that there are adverse consequences of overriding the default behavior of the key strokes; and overriding the default behavior of the key strokes. Keywords include User Operation Mask Table and Playback Key Events.

Abstract: An information processing device comprising: a data processing unit configured to load a disk, which stores content that is divided into content usage control units, and to execute processes for reading the content; and a local storage unit configured to store subsequential data obtained and/or generated subsequentially, wherein the data processing unit is configured to perform processes to: select a title that is an index for reading the subsequential data from dummy titles stored in advance on the disk; set the title as a title for the subsequential data; and store the subsequential data in the local storage unit.

Abstract: Providing a VOD service using BD data available to a BD player includes: preparing VOD data such that the BD player can use the VOD data to provide the VOD service; inserting the VOD data onto a BD; preparing VOD selections and VOD metadata based on the VOD data read from the BD; and delivering the content item selected by a user from a menu of VOD selections. Keywords include Blu-ray, BD-Live, Video-on-Demand.

Abstract: Implementing a web browser in a BD platform, including: receiving a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) page of a web browser; converting the HTML page including user interface (UI) widgets into graphical elements including HAVi widgets; and displaying the HTML page in the BD platform. Keywords include HAVi, Widgets, and BD platform.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide a framework, e.g., a Java®-based toolkit, that provides various levels of abstraction according to the needs of the designer. The abstraction levels are each associated with a set of packages that provide functionality suitable to the level. A user or designer accesses the level packages within the framework and employs the same to create a desired computer-readable media, e.g., a Blu-ray® disc or “BD”. Other aspects may provide corresponding or complementary functionality. For example, the framework abstracts drawing or graphics primitives to higher-level entities, allowing the same to be easily employed in the creation of arbitrary graphical elements. In another example, a business logic module may be employed which can be customized by using settings files.

Abstract: An information processing device including: a storage unit for storing a data file including readable content, and a control file including control information corresponding to the data file; and a data processing unit configured to use a filename conversion table, which stores filename conversion information, to convert the filename of a file stored in the storage unit into a virtual file system (VFS) name, to construct a VFS that includes storage data of a disc and storage data of the storage unit, and to perform a data reading process; wherein the data processing unit: compares the control information stored in the control file and data stored in the storage unit, and reads and/or updates the filename conversion table to reconcile the control information stored in the control file and the stored data in the storage unit.

Abstract: Reformatting web pages in a BD platform, including: receiving a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) page of a web browser; parsing the HTML page into user interface (UI) widgets; and mapping the UI widgets into Home Audio/Video interface (HAVi) widgets. Keywords include HAVi, Widgets, and BD platform.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed by which digital content can be: created, assembled, interpreted, displayed, and manipulated, without having to re-engineer the same pattern on multiple projects. An input-driven client program is employed that is agnostic to content details via contract, a contract being a previously specified behavior pattern that is not deviated from on the client side, thereby segregating creative and engineering tasks and eliminating duplicated effort.
