Described are examples for obtaining data from a single stream output. An indication of requested data from multiple stream sources can be received from an application. A single stream output including one or more output frames can be received from a stream server where at least one output frame includes at least data from each of the multiple stream sources. The requested data can be extracted from the single stream output and provided to the application.

Reading multiplexed device streams

Techniques for arbitrating control access to a shared resource among multiple client applications concurrently consuming a shared data stream associated with the shared resource are described. A server component instantiates a shared resource component representing the shared resource and associated shared data stream. The server component publishes a shared resource interface that provides central interface for the multiple client applications to access the shared resource and associated shared data stream. Each client application may access the shared resource in either control mode or shared mode to consume the shared data stream. In control mode, the client application has read-write access to control parameters representing a configuration of the shared resource that are usable to modify aspects of the shared data stream. In shared mode, the client application has read-only access to the control parameters.

Arbitrating control access to a shared resource across multiple consumers

Techniques are described herein for the development of an application that includes both standalone and web-based versions. Both versions share substantial portions of code, thereby minimizing the disparity between the versions in terms of function and user experience. The foregoing also enables the web-based application to be operable in an offline environment. This may be achieved by separating both the standalone and the offline web-based versions into a client portion and a server portion, but having both portions executing on the client. Instead of facilitating communication between these portions via a network communication channel, communication is performed via an emulated network communication channel, which translates network requests and responses provided by these portions into a format suitable for transmission over the emulated network communication channel. By doing so, these portions can be reused and function identically in standalone versions, online web-based versions, and offline web-based versions of the application.

Code base sharing between standalone and web-based versions of an application via an emulated network communication channel

Described are examples for outputting stream data from a plurality of stream sources. A first data stream output for a first stream source and a second data stream output for a second stream source can be received. First data of the first data stream output can be correlated, in time, with second data of the second data stream output. One or more output frames can be output including the first data and the second data as correlated in time.
