Abstract: A video multiviewer system may include a plurality of video inputs and a multiviewer video processor coupled to the plurality of video inputs. The multiviewer video processor may include a central processing unit (CPU) and a graphics processing unit (GPU) cooperating therewith for generating video data based upon the plurality of video inputs and with added graphic content. The video multiviewer system may further include a display coupled to the multiviewer processor for displaying multiple video windows based upon the video data.

The system may further include a display coupled to the multiviewer video processor for displaying multiple video windows based upon the video data, and at least one user input device. The multiviewer video processor may permit scrolling among the multiple video windows displayed on the display at a given instant and at least one other video window not displayed on the display at the given instant based upon the at least one user input device.

Abstract: A system and method supplies internet protocol television (IPTV) services to a subscriber. A content management subsystem processes and executes integrated workflow functionality for content management of video data to be delivered from a video headend to a subscriber premises. An infrastructure subsystem performs signal processing and routing of the video data from the video headend across the network to subscriber premises based on subscriber requirements at the subscriber premises. A network management, test and monitoring subsystem is coupled with the content management and infrastructure subsystems and includes test and management equipment and control and monitoring systems equipment for monitoring network performance and controlling the infrastructure subsystem and optimizing network performance and video delivery to the subscriber premises.

Abstract: A video conferencing system and method for establishing video conference sessions between residents of a facility and remote terminals.

Abstract: A system for adding monitoring capability to equipment located within a video, audio and/or data production facility. A sampling device is connected to a data communications network and transmits a continuous representation of the video, audio or data being sampled over a data communications network in response to commands from an operator station. To accommodate monitoring of large numbers of sampling devices on a single network, the sampling device may encode and/or compress the video, audio or data being monitored prior to transmitting the sample over the network. The sampling device may also further reduce its contribution to network loading by providing an instant sample of the stream being sampled, such as a single video frame, either a single time, or repeatedly at regular predetermined time intervals.

Abstract: A controlled access television communications network in which scrambling and descrambling are accomplished by digital signal processing. At the scrambler, the video and audio information are digitized, segmented for example on a line-by-line basis, and randomly reordered. Decryption data corresponding to the random reordering of the information segments are derived, and inserted into the scrambled video data. A composite signal comprising the video data, audio modulated subcarrier, synchronizing signals and the decryption data is transmitted to the receivers along with dedicated keys whereby descramblers at the receivers are selectively enabled in accordance with the remote selection of authorized users.
