Abstract: A computer implemented method for setting a playback speed of media content comprising audio, the media content having a defined normal playback speed, the method comprising: receiving an indication that the media content is to be played at a speed different from the normal playback speed of the media content, analysing the audio for determining a type of audio; and determining a playback speed different from the normal playback speed depending on the determined type of audio, and setting the playback speed of the media content to the determined playback speed.

Abstract: A method of encoding audio content comprises performing a content analysis of the audio content, generating classification information indicative of a content type of the audio content based on the content analysis, encoding the audio content and the classification information in a bitstream, and outputting the bitstream. A method of decoding audio content from a bitstream including audio content and classification information for the audio content, wherein the classification information is indicative of a content classification of the audio content, comprises receiving the bitstream, decoding the audio content and the classification information, and selecting, based on the classification information, a post processing mode for performing post processing of the decoded audio content. Selecting the post processing mode can involve calculating one or more control weights for post processing of the decoded audio content based on the classification information.

Abstract: In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, a method is provided for establishing connection between a first local area network and a second local area network. The first local area network includes a first device and a second device. The second local area network includes a third device. The method comprises establishing a security connection between the third device and the first device; detecting a status of the second device; creating a virtual device based on the second device; and establishing connection between the second device and the third device via the virtual device.
