A server computing device generates training data based upon an identifier for a device, a timestamp, and a label received from a developer computing device. The server computing device trains a computer-implemented machine learning (ML) model based upon the training data. The server computing device also generates client configuration data for the ML model that specifies transformations that are to be applied to values in order to generate input values for the ML model. The server computing device deploys ML assets to client computing devices, the ML assets comprising the ML model and the client configuration data. The client computing devices execute the ML model using input values derived via transformations of (local) values produced by the client computing devices and transmit telemetry data to the server computing device. The server computing device updates the ML assets based upon the telemetry data.

A set of interfaces, data structures and events represent a DV metadata extraction tool. The DV metadata extraction tool includes an API (application programming interface) for describing DV metadata packs that are to be extracted from a DV data stream. The extraction API supports methods for specifying and removing DV metadata packs to be extracted from DV frames. The DV metadata extraction tool also includes an API for describing a container that holds DV metadata once it has been extracted from a DV frame. The container API supports methods for adding and removing DV structures to the container and for retrieving data from the container, removing data from the container, and iterating through the container. The DV metadata extraction tool also includes a collection of higher-level structures that represent unpacked DV metadata packs.

A method and system provides interfaces, data structures and events for representing a 'sink' of multimedia data to interact with objects in a multimedia system to control multimedia objects. The interfaces and data structures enable efficient management for media objects that must interface directly with each other. One embodiment is directed to providing a common interface and a single API to a plurality of media objects. In an embodiment, the API is a control layer that isolates the media objects from each other and provides a single point of control, allowing media objects to be added or removed without affecting any other media objects. The control layer allows users to become familiar with only one API instead of many thereby facilitating the tasks of programming and documentation.

A source device permits a user of a remote device to access a protected file on the source device when the user of the remote device has a right to access the protected file. The user locates the protected file on the source device using the remote device and accesses the protected file using a media player on the remote device. The media player constructs a path by which the source device streams the protected file. The remote device responds to an authentication request from the source device that the user of the remote device has a right to access the protected file. The user is authenticated to confirm that the user of the remote device has a right to access the protected file. The protected file is streamed to the remote device via a path constructed by the remote device.

Remotely accessing protected files via streaming

An operating system has an audio system service that can capture all of the streaming audio destined for an output device and make it available for processing. An application can perform the processing upon the captured streaming audio. Any streaming audio that is output by the application and destined for a render device can also be captured for signal processing prior to being mixed with other streaming audio destined for the output device.

Access to audio output via capture service

A component, such as a Component Object Model (COM) object, operates as an intermediary between an Application Programming Interface (API) extension or plug-in and a driver. The component allows additional objects to be aggregated onto the component, and/or sets one or more setting values for a received request so that an I/O call associated with the request can be completed in a manner that is compatible with other I/O calls. The component may also return, in response to a particular request, a stream index associated with the component.
