A voice signal may be adjusted to mask traits such as the gender of a speaker by separating source and filter components of a voice signal using cepstral analysis, adjusting the components based on pitch and formant parameters, and synthesizing a modified signal. Features are disclosed to support real-time voice masking in a computer network by limiting computational complexity and reducing delays in processing and transmission while maintaining signal quality.

Real-time voice masking in a computer network

A method is provided to perform anti-aging techniques in an informational display. An informational display is located on the front bezel of a consumer recording device that displays information related to the content being recorded or played or the operation of the device. To increase the life of the display, displayed text is shifted within the display so that pixel use in the display is more evenly distributed with the pixels in the display. To determine the direction and shape of the shift, real-time calculations of pixel use are made or a simulator is used to compute the probable use of each pixel in the display over a certain period of time. Another anti-aging technique is to dim the display of information after a specified amount of time of display at normal brightness.
