Dynamic configuration and reconfiguration of Voice Control Assistants (VCAs) for Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) devices is provided via a Graphical User Interface (GUI). GUI is presented to provide a list of one or more voice control assistants (VCAs) supported by a CPE device. A selection of a VCA is received from the list of the one or more VCAs presented by the GUI. A configuration interface for the VCA selected from the list of the one or more VCAs from the list of the one or more VCAs is presented on the GUI. Configuration input on the configuration interface of the GUI is received to generate configuration data for the VCA selected from the list of the one or more VCAs. The configuration data is provided to the CPE for implementing the VCA selected from the list of the one or more VCAs according to the configuration data.

Voice control configuration using a graphical user interface

A system and method are provided for an AV device for use with a video player, one or more speakers, and encoded AV data. The encoded AV data includes multiplexed encoded video data and encoded audio data. The AV device is connected to the speakers via wireless channels. The AV device is able to determine channel delays associated with each wireless channel; synchronize program clocks of the video player and speakers; determine and modify buffer levels of each speaker; demultiplex the encoded AV data to obtain encode video data and encoded audio data; and provide prefetched portions of encoded audio data based on buffer levels.

System and method to synchronize rendering of multi-channel audio to video presentation

A method, a server, and a non-transitory computer readable medium are disclosed for sharing content. The method includes running, on a server, a video conferencing application, the video conferencing application configured to share audiovisual content between one or more first devices and the server; establishing, on the server, a video conferencing session, the video conferencing session connecting a second device to the server; receiving, on the server, content from the second device; and sharing, by the server, the content received from the second device joining the video conferencing session as a new participant with the one or more first devices on the video conferencing application.
