Methods and apparatus for an embedded appliance
First Claim
1. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the code comprising code to cause the processor to:
- receive a first media signal and a second media signal;
identify, at a first time, a first plurality of media signal parameters based on the first media signal;
receive a first modification instruction associated with a session format having a second plurality of media signal parameters different from the first plurality of media signal parameters;
modify the first media signal based on the first media signal parameters and the first modification instruction to produce a first modified media signal in the session format and having the second plurality of media signal parameters;
identify, at a second time after the first time, a third plurality of media signal parameters different from the first plurality of media signal parameters and based on the first media signal;
receive a second modification instruction associated with the session format; and
modify the first media signal or the first modified media signal based on the third plurality of media signal parameters and the second modification instruction to produce a second modified media signal in the session format and having the second plurality of media signal parameters.

Abstract
In some embodiments, an apparatus comprises a media module and a modification module included in an embedded appliance. The media module is configured to receive a first media signal associated with a first input port of the embedded appliance and a second media signal associated with a second input port of the embedded appliance. The media module is configured to identify a first set of media signal parameters based on the first media signal. The modification module is configured to receive a modification instruction associated with a session format having a second set of media signal parameters different from the first set of media signal parameters. The modification module is configured to modify the first media signal based on the first set of media signal parameters and the modification instruction to produce a first modified media signal in the session format and having the second set of media signal parameters.

14. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the code comprising code to cause the processor to:
-
receive a media signal associated with a plurality of media parameters; identify a first format of the media signal when the plurality of media parameters match a predefined set of media parameters from a plurality of predefined sets of media parameters, the predefined set of media parameters including a first number of media parameters and being associated with the first format; identify a second format of the media signal when the first format is not identified and when the plurality of media parameters match a subset of media parameters of the predefined set of media parameters, the subset of media parameters including a second number of media parameters less than the first number of media parameters and being associated with the second format; send a signal indicative of a selection of the first format when the first format when the first format is identified; and send a signal indicative of a selection of the second format when the second format is identified. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor, the code comprising code to cause the processor to:
-
receive a first media signal (1) having a format, (2) having a first time base during a first time window, and (3) having a second time base during a second time window after the first time window; receive a second media signal (1) having a third time base during the first time window, the third time base different from the first time base, and (2) having a fourth time base during the second time window, the fourth time base different from the second time base; modify, at a time during the first time window, at least one of the first media signal or the second media signal based on a common time base such that the first media signal and the second media signal are synchronized to the common time base to produce at least a first modified first media signal or a first modified second media signal; and modify, at a time during the second time window, at least one of the first media signal or the second media signal based on the common time base such that the first media signal and the second media signal are synchronized to the common time base to produce at least a second modified first media signal or a second modified second media signal. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
