Automatic Identification Of Dvd Title Using Internet Technologies And Fuzzy Matching Techniques

US Patent:
7856443, Dec 21, 2010
Filed:
Aug 13, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/917686
Inventors:
Christopher Commons - Indianapolis IN, US
Piero Madar - Indianapolis IN, US
Assignee:
Gracenote, Inc. - Emeryville CA
International Classification:
G06F 7/00, G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707759, 707765, 707913
Abstract:
An iterative search technique is used to quickly and accurately locate information in a database, such as one storing information about digital versatile discs (DVDs). First, a presumably unique search key is generated for an unidentified DVD and compared with corresponding keys in a database. If no match is found progressively less specific information is used to generate a series of search keys that are similarly compared with corresponding keys in the database. If at least one possibly matching record is found, it is determined whether the best matching record can be considered a match, otherwise, less specific information is used to search for a match until predefined least specific information is used.

Method And Apparatus For Restricting Playback Of Recorded Digital Signals

US Patent:
2007012, May 31, 2007
Filed:
Dec 8, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/580997
Inventors:
Piero Madar - Indianapolis IN, US
Richard Jones - Plainfield IN, US
International Classification:
G06F 12/00, G06F 13/28, G06F 13/00
US Classification:
711164000
Abstract:
A password protection function enables a user to assign a password to signals including audio and/or video signals recorded by their own digital recording apparatus, and is capable of providing both backward and forward compatibility for older and future digital playback apparatuses, respectively. According to an exemplary embodiment, a method for performing digital recording and playback includes steps of enabling a user to record digital signals onto a digital storage medium, receiving a password from the user, storing the password in at least one unreserved data field on the digital storage medium, wherein the at least one unreserved data field is included in a first presentation sequence for the recorded digital signals, and requiring the password to be input before playing back the recorded digital signals.
