A method, system, computer medium, and other embodiments for integrating unrelated web hosted services with stand-alone media-based devices are provided. Users can access and control the media-based device conveniently with a web-browser through various portals on the Internet. In one embodiment, users access the media-based device through one or more unrelated web portals, so as to control and to program the media-based device in a single web session, and to see information both stored on the media-based device and originating from third-party online sources of information and services in a single integrated presentation.

A method, system, computer medium, and other embodiments for integrating unrelated web hosted services with stand-alone media-based devices are provided. Users can access and control the media-based device conveniently with a web-browser through various portals on the Internet. An application program interface allows the various web servers and portals to take advantage of the system. In one embodiment, users access the media-based device through one or more unrelated web portals, so as to control and to program the media-based device in a single web session, and to see information both stored on the media-based device and originating from third-party online sources of information and services in a single integrated presentation.

The present invention is a system and method for displaying and manipulating a multidimensional data set using a computer system. In one embodiment of the invention an input device such as a camera or output from pre-recorded audio-visual data is connected to the computer system. The camera is used to record a data set related to the movement of one or more points on the subject's body. The data set comprises at least 4-dimensions of data and at least one of the dimensions is related to time. The data set is input into the computer and stored in a memory. Three dimensions of the data set are converted into a 3-dimensional perspective data set for display in a display device, and an image is displayed at locations determined by the 3-dimensional perspective data set. The remaining dimensions of the data set which one wishes to display are encoded in an attribute of the displayed images. A selection command is received by the computer system. The selection command selects a portion of the displayed data corresponding to a subset of the data set. A modification signal is received by the computer system. The modification signal modifies data in the subset of the data set.
