DivX, LLC has filed a second Eastern District of Texas complaint against Samsung (2:21-cv-00187), asserting three patents issuing in 2021, together with a fourth granted last year, all generally related to media streaming, distribution, and/or playback. Samsung is accused of infringement through the provision of portable computers, smartphones, and smart TVs, which “comprise decoders and include at least preinstalled Samsung Gallery and/or Netflix applications”, that support the streaming or playback of video. The complaint further flags the inclusion of the Hulu and/or Samsung TV Plus apps and comes as DivX and Samsung, as well as three other respondents, prepare for a July 7 hearing in the investigation before the International Trade Commission (ITC) based on a complaint that DivX filed there last September.
