Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) for route planning and power management, obtaining information regarding the UAV, a present location of the UAV, a destination location for the UAV, or a combination thereof, determining, based on the information, a need for the UAV to recharge a power source of the UAV as part of a journey of the UAV from the present location of the UAV to the destination location for the UAV, responsive to the determining the need, identifying a recharging station associated with a network for recharging the power source of the UAV, and calculating a flight path for the UAV in accordance with the identifying the recharging station. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Method and system for routing/orchestration/management of aerial vehicles or data on a network

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a media processor having a controller to record stereoscopic media content supplied by a multimedia system, receive from a communication device a request for the recorded stereoscopic media content, determine rendering capabilities of the communication device, generate transcoded content by transcoding the recorded stereoscopic media content according to the rendering capabilities of the communication device, and transmit to the communication device the transcoded content. Other embodiments are disclosed and contemplated.

Apparatus for adapting a presentation of media content to a requesting device

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying a predetermined comment of a number of predetermined comments that relate to a content item being presented by the media processor. A selection is identified of a characteristic of the content item of a number of predetermined characteristics of the content item. Posts are presented on a display device that is presenting the content item, wherein the posts are a subset of a group of posts related to the content item, and wherein the posts are selected based on the selection of the characteristic of the content item. Other embodiments are disclosed.

System and method for interacting with social networking in an internet protocol television system

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a communication device having a controller to capture an image, and transmit the image to a system. The system can be operable to determine that the image corresponds to a media program, identify metadata associated with the media program, and transmit the metadata to a set-top box operable to display program information according to the metadata. Other embodiments are disclosed.

System for media program management

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a computer-readable storage medium having computer instructions to present a plurality of unassociated media programs from a single presentation device having overlapping presentation periods, and cause the single presentation device to present a user interface for one of the plurality of unassociated media programs responsive to detecting a request for the user interface. Each of the plurality of unassociated media programs can be viewable only with a viewing apparatus. The viewing apparatus can be configured for viewing one of the unassociated media programs at a time. Other embodiments are disclosed and contemplated.

Method and apparatus for managing a presentation of media content

Systems and methods are disclosed for receiving a request to display, on an first communications device, media content, where the request comprises a first logical address for accessing the media content at a first storage location, transmitting to a second communications device, a second logical address for accessing a copy of the media content at a second storage location, where the second logical address differs from the first logical address, and where the second storage location differs from the first storage location. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Systems and methods for remote web query and image selection exchange to video screen

In an Internet protocol television network, a set-top box includes a social network interface module and a remote control interface module. The social network interface module receives a first selection of a content item from the remote control interface module, and receives a second selection of a comment from the remote control interface module. The social network interface module also posts the second selection on a social network system.

Systems and methods are disclosed for receiving a request to display, on an external display device, a media file, where the request comprises a first logical address for accessing the media file at a first storage location, transmitting to a set-top box, a second logical address for accessing a copy of the media file at a second storage location, where the second logical address differs from the first logical address, and where the second storage location differs from the first storage location. Other embodiments are disclosed.
