METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MIDSTREAM FILTERING OF AUDIO AND VIDEO CONTENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240380950 titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MIDSTREAM FILTERING OF AUDIO AND VIDEO CONTENT
The abstract describes a method for filtering streaming media content, which involves receiving packets from a remote content source, determining whether to filter based on user settings, and communicating the filtered data stream to a media-playing device.
- The method involves receiving packets of a source data stream from a remote content source.
- It includes determining whether to perform a filtering action on the packets based on user settings.
- The method generates a filtered data stream by performing the filtering action on the packets.
- The filtered data stream is then communicated to a media-playing device for playback.
