International Classification:

G06K 15/00

US Classification:

358 115, 358 16

Abstract:

A method, computer program product and print server for discovering printers connected to a print server. A print server may transmit a HyperText Transport Protocol (HTTP) request to every Internet Protocol (IP) address in a range of IP addresses. A response, e. g. , a document such as a web page, may be received by the print server from one or more devices at one or more IP addresses in the range of IP addresses. The print server may identify one or more out of these devices that transmitted a response as printers based on analyzing the responses from the devices. The print server may obtain printer attribute information from the identified printers and update a database with the obtained printer attribute information.

Assignee:

Thomson Licensing S.A. - F-92100 Boulogne-Billancourt

International Classification:

H04N005/76
H04N005/781

US Classification:

386046000, 386125000

Abstract:

A digital recording apparatus and a method for controlling a digital recording apparatus that provides for allowing the user to easily determine the available recording time that remains on a memory of the apparatus in response to a record command. According to an exemplary embodiment, the method includes steps of detecting a first user input representing a command to start recording, and enabling display of a first screen message responsive to the first user input, where the first screen message indicates a remaining recording time available on a memory of the apparatus. The command to start recording is a command that does not specify a total recording time, for example, by the user actuating a RECORD key on a remote control device associated with the apparatus. The present invention also automatically provides another screen message that allows the user to delete data from the memory if it is determined that insufficient available recording time remains on the memory.

Appl. No.:

Inventors:

Valerie Liebhold - Carmel IN, US
Anthony Stuart - Zionsville IN, US

International Classification:

H04N 5/44

US Classification:

348725000

Abstract:

A television signal receiver provides visual feedback in response to the receipt of a direct entry digit for a television channel change that indicates the channel number being entered by the user and the television signal tuning device or tuner thereof to which the entered television channel number pertains, particularly with respect to a tuner of the television signal receiver and one or more auxiliary television signal tuners. The various auxiliary television signal tuners are preferably, but not necessarily, with respect to separate components, such as a satellite receiver and a cable set-top box. Upon receipt of a direct entry television channel, television channel tuning may, by default, be performed on the tuner associated with the previously (i.e. last) tuned channel. Default tuning may be selectable by the user. The visual feedback may be in the form of an information banner. The information banner may also allow the toggling between the separate components in order to allow channel change from the separate component.

Appl. No.:

Inventors:

Scott Allan Kendall - Lexington KY, US
Anthony Edward Stuart - Zionsville IN, US

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

7071041, 707E17009

Abstract:

Playback list creation for digital programs in a digital device utilizes navigation path used to locate a particular digital program in a hierarchally-ordered grouping of digital programs, the grouping based on organization parameters of the digital program. The playback list is created from digital programs within the navigation path used to reach the selected digital program. The playback list may be shuffle-played or played in order. Playback of a different digital program causes changes to the navigation path, which then changes the playback list. In an MP3 player, for example, ID3 tag attributes are used as organization parameters to provide hierarchal grouping of digital audio files.
