Title: Test for distinguishing between a human and a computer program
Inventor: YAN JEFF
IPC: G06F21/36
Filed: 2013-10-07
Abstract: A method for distinguishing between a human and a computer program, for access to a service, comprises: providing an output to a client device, such as a string of characters, and displaying a challenge image comprising a number of characters, including the provided output, in an arrangement. One or more of the characters in the challenge image is obscured or distorted to provide obfuscation. Input corresponding to the selection of one or more points on the challenge image is received, and compared with information on the location of the characters that relate to the provided output. If the selected points correspond with the character locations, the system determines that the input was made by a human, and allows access. This allows the test to be more complex without making it too difficult for a human to decipher and solve.

Title: System and method for dynamic file availability during encoding
Inventor: DAHL JONATHAN H
IPC: H04L47/43
Filed: 2013-02-15
Abstract: A method for dynamic file availability during remote transfer and transcoding involves the conversion of a non-streamable media file to a streamable format prior to transcoding, and the streaming of the transcoded file before ingest and transcode is complete. A first portion of a non-streamable media file is received at an ingest server for transcoding. Upon determining that the first portion does not include a header, the probable location of the header in the media file is determined and a header portion of the file is received at the ingest server. The first portion is combined with at least part of the header to produce a first streamable segment. Prior to receiving the last portion of the media file at the ingest server, the first streamable segment is transcoded at a first transcode server to produce a first transcoded streamable segment.
