  • Patent number: 9955119
    Abstract: A multimedia conference broadcast system may include one or more processors and a memory. The one or more processors may receive video streams and audio streams from participant devices. The one or more processors may transmit, to each of the participant devices, the video streams and the audio streams corresponding to the other devices. The one or more processors may receive a request to broadcast the video streams and the audio streams from one of the participant devices. The one or more processors may generate a composite multimedia stream based on the video streams and the audio streams received from the participant devices. The one or more processors may broadcast the composite multimedia stream to viewer devices that are separate from the participant devices.

  • Patent number: 9104881
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying unauthorized presentation of protected content by one or more participants in a media collaboration. In one implementation, a processing device receives one or more content elements, each of the one or more content elements being provided within a media collaboration and associated with one or more users. The processing device identifies an unauthorized presentation of at least one of the one or more content elements within the media collaboration. Based on an identification of the unauthorized presentation, the processing device initiates one or more actions with respect to one or more of the users associated with the at least one of the one or more content elements.

  • Patent number: 8976221
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting when a video stream embedded within a region of another video stream contains copyrighted material. In one implementation, a computer system receives a first video stream and determines that the first video stream comprises a second video stream within a region of the first video stream, using metadata that identifies a set of geometric properties of the region. The computer system obtains the second video stream from the first video stream based on the set of geometric properties of the region, and determines whether the second video stream contains copyrighted material.
