The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus including setting a memory swap size limit, the limit being lower than a memory swap size defining a maximum size of a part of said memory resources used for swap, obtaining a score for at least one running program, a high score corresponding to a low priority level, obtaining monitoring information representative of a monitored activity of the program during a time period and of a learnt user's habit of use of the program, including a number of times the program gained the focus within the time period. The disclosure also includes deriving a score delta from information with a decrement value to the score delta at each focus gained by the program, adjusting the score by adding the delta, and terminating execution when memory swap size limit is reached and the adjusted score reaches a memory swap size limit threshold.

In storing of a plurality of overlapping recordings of a same digital video and/or audio stream, resource optimization is obtained through reuse of allocated resources when multiple record actions are operated on a same digital video and/or audio stream.

Device and method for storing a plurality of overlapping recordings of a same digital video and/or audio stream

The invention relates to a device and a method for recording data on a recording medium. The invention relates to the implementation of the timeshift function in a part of said recording medium called the timeshift buffer memory having a size defined in terms of recording capacity. For the timeshift buffer memory, a first threshold defines a capacity limit, a second threshold defines a recording time limit. The device records the data in the timeshift buffer memory as long as the second threshold is not reached and when the second threshold is reached before the first threshold, the processor truncates the start of the timeshift buffer memory when the data being read are not located at the start of the buffer memory or moves to reading the data of the timeshift buffer memory when the data being read are located at the start of the timeshift buffer memory.

Data recording device and method relating to a time shifting function on a recording medium

There are provided respective systems and methods for recording and playing back media content. The system for recording media content includes a segmenter () for splitting transport stream data and index data corresponding to the media content into discrete files at periodic intervals on access point boundaries. Each of the discrete files includes a respective transport segment and a respective index segment. The system also includes a segment storage device () for storing the discrete files.

Managing time-shift data

The invention relates to a device for receiving audio video data packets and corresponding method. According to said method, said packets received comprising an absolute time stamp showing the display time of said packets, said packets being intended to be displayed after their recording, or to be displayed directly following their reception. The device comprises an interface module with the display intended to respect, among other things, the display time of said packets. The device comprises:
