Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for generating a playlist for a simultaneous presentation of a plurality of media assets. The system retrieves a user preference associated with a user profile and receives a selection of a first media asset and a second media asset from the plurality of media assets for presentation on a user device. The system parses the respective audio streams of the first media asset and the second media asset to identify one or more preferred audio segments based on the user preference and generates the playlist of the identified one or more preferred audio segments. Based on a generated audio playlist, the system generates, for presentation on the user device, the video stream for each of the first media asset and the second media asset and the playlist of the identified one or more preferred audio segments.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for providing computer implemented services using managed systems are disclosed. To provide the computer implemented services, the managed systems and/or communication devices may need to operate in a predetermined manner conducive to, for example, execution of applications that provide the computer implemented services. To manage communications in such systems, a highly available service may, upon changes in topology of a deployment including managed system and communication devices, initiate a cooperative process for determining how to communicate in the deployment. The process may be performed to select a new global maximum transmission unit (MTU). Once selected, the deployment may be reconfigured based on the selected global MTU to limit the size of network data units. The global MTU may be selected to limit network data unit fragmentation, network data unit dropping, and unused space in data transmissions.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein to dynamically update content restrictions for multiple users by detecting a first user in the proximity of a media device playing a first content item and detecting a second user entering the proximity of the media device. In response to detecting a second user entering the proximity of the media device and receiving a command from the first user that controls playing the first content, the system modifies a stored relationship between the first user and the second user to track the relationship between the first user and the second user. Thereafter, when the system detects the first user and the second user in the proximity of a media device playing a second content, in response, the system automatically performs an action that controls the playing of the second content (e.g., without user having to issue those commands).

Abstract: An information handling system includes a first memory and a baseboard management controller. The first memory stores a first firmware partition and a second firmware partition. The baseboard management controller includes a second memory. The baseboard management controller begins execution of a DM-Verity daemon, and performs periodic patrol reads of the first firmware partition. The baseboard management controller detects one or more block failures in the first firmware partition, and stores information associated with the one or more block failures in a message box of the second memory. In response to the entire first firmware partition being scanned, the baseboard management controller switches a boot partition from the first firmware partition to the second firmware partition, and initiates a reboot of the information handling system.
