An antenna position determination system determines a position for an antenna to communicate with a broadcast tower and present the antenna to a user via augmented reality. The antenna position determination system receives information indicating one or more broadcast towers including a location for each broadcast tower. The antenna position determination system selects a broadcast tower of the one or more broadcast towers and receives an image of an antenna. The antenna position determination system determines a position for the antenna to communicate with the selected broadcast tower based on the image of the antenna and the selected broadcast tower. The antenna position determination system presents the determined position of the antenna to a user via an augmented reality user interface.

Systems and methods for using augmented reality for antenna adjustment

A technique is described for generating a unified list (e.g., a list ribbon) of programs from a variety and disparate channels, the list for display on an over-the-top (OTT) client device. As an example, the unified list can be generated from OTT channels and from over-the-air OTA and/or Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) channels.

Unified program listing of content transmitted using different distribution types

A technique is described for generating a unified list (e.g., a list ribbon) of programs from a variety and disparate channels, the list for display on an over-the-top (OTT) client device. As an example, the unified list can be generated from OTT live channels and from over-the-air OTA and/or Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) live channels. Further, the unified list can include OTT recordings on the cloud and OTA/ATSC recordings on the local hard drive connected to an OTA local DVR. Thus, the OTT device Client obtains the list from the DVR backend, instead of going to the local OTA client box for the local recordings.

A robust, computationally-efficient and secure system is described for streaming content from a server to a client device via the Internet or another digital network. Various aspects relate to automated processes, systems and devices for securing a media stream with efficient yet effective digital cryptography. In particular, content may be transmitted in transport stream (TS) format in which all packets are encrypted (e.g., using a cipher block chain), in which control packets are exempted from encryption (e.g., using an electronic codebook), or in any other manner.

Methods and systems are provided for automatically establishing communications with a media device. One method involves a client device capturing and analyzing an image of a media device to obtain identification information associated with the media device, automatically configuring a network interface of the client device to communicate on a wireless network using at least a portion of the identification information associated with the media device obtained from the captured image, and thereafter establishing a peer-to-peer communication session with the media device via the wireless network. In one or more embodiments, a name or other identifier associated with the wireless network includes the portion of the identification information.
