  • Publication number: 20240154924
    Abstract: Techniques are described for generating a notification in connection with a video content item are provided. An example method comprises receiving, from at least a portion of the plurality of user devices, a plurality of messages via the first message interface, determining whether a message from the plurality of messages is associated with participant information that would be of interest to a content creator of the video content item, and responsive to determining that the message is associated with the participant information that would be of interest to the content creator of the video content item, causing a creator interface including a second message interface to be presented on a user device associated with the content creator, wherein the second message interface presents a notification concerning the participant information by modifying an appearance of the message in the second message interface based on the participant information.

  • Patent number: 10848537
    Abstract: Implementations disclose leveraging aggregated network statistics for enhancing quality and user experience for live video streaming from mobile devices. A method includes receiving, by a processing device of a client device, a bandwidth parameter corresponding to aggregated network statistics for at least one of a current geographic location of the client device or a current network of the client device, initializing an upload quality parameter of an upload session based on the received bandwidth parameter, the upload session comprising upload of content from the client device, and modifying, by the processing device, the upload quality parameter throughout the upload session based on updated bandwidth parameters corresponding to aggregated network conditions for at least one of new geographic locations of the client device or new networks of the client device, the upload quality parameter to control a format of the upload session.

  • Patent number: 9031296
    Abstract: A method and system for transferring data from a rotating data source to a stationary target over a slip ring. The system includes a compressor on a rotor, a decompressor on a stationary platform, and respectively corresponding memory buffers. The data is optionally compressed in the event that the slip ring capacity is below the required rate. The compressor a predictor unit, an entropy encoder unit and an error protector unit. The predictor unit may use stored data as reference from a set of frames and locations within them. Encoding of locations may be carried out with a Golomb-Rice encoded integer, and entropy encoding of differences may involve Golomb-Rice encoding with parameter K varying for each group of data units. The error protector protects parameters inserted into data stream with an error protection code while most of the data can remain without protection.
