Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing error detection in a network, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing error and/or fault detection in a network and/or media stream and providing options to address the error and/or fault in the network and/or media stream. In various embodiments, a computer might detect an error in a first network and send a notification indicating that the error has occurred. The notification might contain one or more options to address the error in the first network. The computer, a user device, a service provider device, or a content provider device might receive and display the notification containing the one or more options. The computer, the user device, the service provider device, or the content provider device might then select at least one of the one or more options to address the error in the first network.

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing media content streaming/downloading and playback, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing video quality optimization based on display capabilities. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive user input from a user indicating a user request for media content. The computing system might autonomously determine characteristics or attributes of a playback device (i.e., a display device and/or audio playback device, etc.). The computing system might send, to a media content source over a network, a request for the media content, the request comprising information regarding presentation characteristics that are based at least in part on the determined characteristics of the playback device. The computing system might receive a version of the media content having the one or more presentation characteristics, and might relay the received version of the media content to the playback device for presentation to the user.

Video quality optimization based on display capabilities

A digital asset security device, includes an asset capture unit configured to electronically capture a digital asset, a processor configured to digitally sign the captured asset, a memory configured to store a digitally signed asset from the processor, and a hashing module in communication the asset capture unit, the processor, and the memory, and configured to provide a cryptographic hash to one or more of the captured asset and the digitally signed asset.

Systems and methods for digital asset security ecosystems

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing visual impairment detection for free-space optical communication ('FSOC') systems. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive, either from a camera or from a database, images (and/or videos) of an optical field of view ('FOV') of the camera, the optical FOV comprising an optical beam(s) of a first FSOC system; might autonomously analyze the captured images (and/or videos) to determine whether an object(s) is moving within proximity to an optical beam(s) of the first FSOC system, to perform at least one of reactive learning or proactive learning regarding potential interruption of the optical beam(s) of the first FSOC system, and/or to determine one or more preventative measures to prevent interruption of the optical beam(s) of the first FSOC system; and might autonomously initiate one or more first tasks and/or the one or more preventative measures, based on the analysis.

Visual impairment detector for free-space optical communication systems

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing configuration data and settings on customer premises equipment ('CPE'), and, more particularly, for implementing storage, retrieval, and transfer of configuration data and settings associated with a user and/or a customer premises on CPE. In operation, CPE might set and store one or more configuration settings associated with a user and/or a customer premises. Next, a first CPE might receive a request to set the one or more configuration settings associated with the user or the customer premises on the first CPE or on a second CPE. Based on the request received, the CPE might retrieve from storage and set the one or more configuration settings associated with the user or the customer premises on the first CPE or on the second CPE.
