Abstract
A system and method for video content sharing are given. A wireless controller of a first computing device receives a multi-gigabit-per-second transmission of a compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer from a second computing device, and stores the compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer in local memory. An integrated graphics controller of the first computing device decompresses and de-crypts the remote frame buffer, and renders a composite frame buffer of the remote frame buffer and a native or local frame buffer of the first computing device.
Claims20
A method of premium video content sharing, comprising:
- receiving a multi-gigabit-per-second transmission of a compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer at a wireless controller of a first computing device from a second computing device;
- storing the compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer in memory of the first computing device;
- and
- performing via an integrated graphics controller of a processor of the first computing device:
- reading the compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer from the memory;
- decompressing and decrypting the remote frame buffer;
- rendering a composite frame buffer of the remote frame buffer with a local frame buffer of the first computing device;
- and
- outputting the composite frame buffer to a display.
A computing device configured for a content sharing system and to receive content from a remote computing device, the computing device comprising:
- a memory;
- a wireless controller to receive a multi-gigabit-per-second wireless transmission of a compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer from the remote computing device, and to store the compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer in the memory;
- and
- a processor having an integrated graphics controller to read the compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer from the memory, decompress and decrypt the remote frame buffer, and render a composite frame buffer in the memory, the composite frame buffer comprising the remote frame buffer and a native frame buffer of the computing device.
A video content sharing system comprising:
- a first computing device comprising a display, a first memory, a multi-gigabit-per-second wireless network controller to receive a compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer from a second computing device and to store the compressed and encrypted remote frame buffer in the first memory, and a processor having integrated graphics (iGFX) including an iGFX controller to decompress and decrypt the remote frame buffer and render a composite frame buffer of the remote frame buffer and a local frame buffer of the first computing device;
- and
- the second computing device comprising a second memory to store the remote frame buffer for transmission to the first computing device.
