Systems and methods for determining user output preferences

摘要

A method is disclosed for determining audiovisual output preference. The method comprises providing first and second stimuli having respective sets of audio and visual characteristics. The method receives a user selection between the first and second stimuli, and includes the set of audio and visual characteristics corresponding to the selected stimuli in the audiovisual output preference.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a system comprising a processor, a first version of video data and audio data representing media content and a second version of the video data and the audio data representing the media content, wherein the first version is compressed according to a first video compression, wherein the second version is compressed to a second video compression, wherein the first video compression differs from the second video compression, and wherein the media content comprises a first genre; applying, by the system, a first output profile to the first version of the video data and the audio data at a presentation component during a first reproduction of the media content at the presentation component to generate a first user experience of the media content; applying, by the system, a second output profile to the version of the video data and the audio data at the presentation component during a second reproduction of the media content at the presentation component to generate a second user experience of the media content, wherein the first user experience and the second experience are simultaneously presented on a first portion and a second portion of a display device; receiving, by the system, a first preference score of the first user experience and a second preference score of the second user experience; performing multivariate analysis of the first preference score and the second preference score; identifying, by the system, a preferred output profile between the first output profile and the second output profile according to the multivariate analysis, wherein the preferred output profile comprises changes to output characteristics to compensate for a viewing environment, wherein the preferred output profile comprises audio characteristics comprising one of treble, bass, speaker delay, number of audio channels, or combination thereof, and wherein the preferred output profile is specific to the first genre of the media content; storing, by the system, the preferred output profile at a network server; receiving, by the system, a selection of the preferred output profile to compensate for a change in ambient characteristics during presentation of second media content of the first genre via the presentation component; and storing, by the system, the preferred output profile at a set-top box, wherein the preferred output profile further comprises visual characteristics.
