Personalized audio: the technology offers the user the possibility of enjoying a broadcast TV program in his/her favorite language. Additional languages are streamed on demand from a server and can be rendered either on the main TV screen or on a personal device (e.g. smartphone with headphone).

Multi-view on multi-screen: the user can enrich the broadcast TV program (e.g. music live concert or sport event) by selecting additional points of views rendered on a second screen, e.g. a tablet.

Hybrid stereoscopic 3D TV: it consists in rendering a 3D side-by-side content without monopolizing a broadcast channel. One view is transmitted over a broadcast network whilst the other view is delivered over Internet. Each view can be rendered independently as a 2D content.

Classification of music items are generally primarily based on their belonging to a music genre: electronica, jazz, pop/ rock… However, the editorial meta-data related to the genre are generally only accessible at the artist level (the whole set of music tracks produced by one artist will belong to the same music genre whatever the tracks content). Ircammusicgenre is a software which allows the automatic estimation of the belonging of a music track to music genres. The list of music genres considered by the software can be pre-determined by Ircam (electronica, jazz, pop/rock…) or can be adapted to categories relevant to the partner, provided a sufficient number of sound examples per category.

Ircammusicgenre also allows to perform multi-labeling of a music track, i.e. assigning a set of genre labels instead of a single genre. In this case, a weighting is assigned to each estimated label.

Ircammusicmood is a software which allows the automatic estimation of the music mood of a music track to music mood. Music mood relates to the “mood” that a track suggests: positive, sad, powerful, calming…

As for the music genre, the list can be predetermined by Ircam or discussed with the partner. Multi-labels can also be applied to the music mood classification.
