Managing personal content during extended display screen recording

Abstract

Among aspects of managing personal content during extended display screen recording, a screen recording system includes a wireless device providing digital image content for display on an extended display device, and a screen recording session on the wireless device capturing the digital image content and audio data. The wireless device implements a content control module that is able to determine that the screen recording session is to capture personal content associated with a user of the wireless device. The content control module is able to initiate a private screen review mode in which the personal content is displayable on a display screen of the wireless device and is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device. The content control module is also able to generate a shareable screen recording that includes the audio data and the digital image content displayed on the extended display device, without including the personal content.

Description

Background Technology

[0001] Devices such as smart devices, mobile devices (e.g., cellular phones, tablets, smartphones), and consumer electronics have become increasingly common for many device users. For example, a person may own a laptop, desktop computer, tablet, mobile phone, etc. Furthermore, these different devices may have different operating systems and be able to run many different types of applications. While the variety of devices and applications provides users with a wealth of options, users may also find it difficult to learn how to use various different devices and applications. Therefore, users who want to learn one aspect of device operation or functionality, or who want to learn application features for personal or business tasks, for entertainment, or to conquer game levels, can try to find recorded examples via any number of available social media platforms. Often, other users proficient in the operation of a particular device or the features of a software application will record themselves performing device operations or going through application features on their own devices, thus capturing instructional tutorials with audio and / or video, which can then be shared on any number of social media platforms for access by others.

[0002] Screen recording features can be included as device functionalities in many different types of devices and can be initiated by the user operating the device to capture a range of device inputs and actions, application characteristics, and the resulting displayed output. Users can initiate screen recording sessions on their devices in any number of diverse scenarios, such as prolific gamers recording their gameplay to share with fans or followers, or, as noted above, creating tutorials for others. Alternatively, those reviewing and evaluating new consumer devices can initiate screen recording sessions to capture and share the new device's functionality with an online audience. Similarly, technical and / or quality assurance reviewers can initiate screen recording sessions to capture and report on device operating functions or features.

[0003] Screen recording eliminates the need for another person to assist by holding a separate device and recording a user operating their own device to demonstrate a series of device inputs and operations, application features, and the resulting displayed output. Screen recording also provides convenient content creation and sharing from a single device. While screen recording offers several benefits to device users, it is not without its potential problems, particularly when initiating and recording a screen recording session on the device.

[0004] For example, it is quite likely that the user will receive some type of notification displayed on the device's display screen during the screen recording session, such as an alarm clock, a pop-up notification of received text messages or new email messages, notification of incoming video or phone calls, or any other type of banner notification of received communications. Notifications that automatically appear on the device's display screen will then be recorded as part of the screen recording session and will be openly shared when the recording is posted to any number of social media platforms. Unfortunately, this could result in the user's personal content (also known as "personally identifiable information") being openly disclosed in the form of audio and / or video content, such as user contact details, photos, login credentials, financial transaction details, biometric information, etc., which are considered private and sensitive data.

[0012] Figure 13 The illustration shows various components of an example device that can be used to implement the technology described herein for managing personal content during screen recording. Detailed Implementation

[0013] Implementations of managing personal content during screen recording are described, and these implementations provide techniques that can be implemented by any type of computing device, such as smart devices, mobile devices (e.g., cellular phones, tablets, smartphones), consumer electronics, etc. Typically, screen recording features can be included as device functionalities in wireless devices and can be initiated by a user operating the device to capture a series of device inputs and actions, application features, and the resulting displayed output. A user can initiate a screen recording session on a wireless device to capture instructional tutorials with audio and / or video, which can then be shared on any number of social media platforms for access by others. For example, a user proficient in a particular device operation or software application feature will perform device operations or go through application features while screen recording their own device. Screen recording features provide convenient content generation and sharing from a single device itself.

[0014] However, given the nature and general purpose of wireless devices (e.g., smartphones used for communication), it is quite likely that users will receive some type of notification displayed on the device's display screen during the screen recording session, such as an alarm clock, a pop-up notification of received text messages or new email messages, notification of incoming video or telephone calls, or any other type of banner notification of received communications. Notifications that are automatically displayed on the device's display screen will then be recorded as part of the screen recording session and will be openly shared when the recording is posted to any number of social media platforms. Unfortunately, this could result in the user's personal content or PII (Personally Identifiable Information) being openly disclosed in the form of audio and / or video content, such as user contact details, photos, login credentials, financial transaction details, biometric information, etc., which are private and sensitive data of the user. Typically, any type of information that is personally personal to the user of the device may be unintentionally disclosed during a screen recording session that captures digital image and / or audio content on the device.

[0015] In various aspects of managing personal content during device screen recording, the wireless device has a display screen for displaying digital image content and includes an audio module for processing audio data. It is capable of initiating a screen recording session to capture digital image content and audio data. The wireless device implements a content control module that determines whether the screen recording session captures personal content associated with the user of the wireless device. The personal content can be captured as part of the digital image content or as part of the audio data. In various embodiments, the content control module is capable of identifying the personal content as a type of personally identifiable information from a non-public information list.

[0016] The content control module can generate user screen recordings with user-authorized access levels. User screen recordings include digital image content and / or audio data, as well as personal content that is not altered for user review. Notably, the user of the wireless device that initiated the screen recording session has full authorization to replay the recording and fully review any personal content that was not hidden or filtered when captured. The content control module can also generate shareable screen recordings with shared authorization access levels. Shareable screen recordings include digital image content and / or audio data, but personal content is obscured. Notably, shareable screen recordings can be shared with others, such as when posting the recording to any number of social media platforms; however, viewers of the recording will not be able to see personal content that may have been captured as part of the digital image content, or may not be able to hear personal content that may have been captured as part of the audio data. The content control module can hide personal content captured as part of the digital image content to prevent the personal content from being visually displayed during playback of the shareable screen recording. Similarly, the content control module can generate shareable screen recordings so that the audio output of the audio data is muted during playback of the shareable screen recordings to prevent the leakage of personal content captured as part of the audio data.

[0017] The wireless device can be equipped with a microphone to detect external audio content processed as audio data by the device's audio module. The content control module can determine which personal content associated with the device's user is captured as external audio content during a screen recording session. The content control module can then generate a shareable screen recording to mute the audio output of the audio data during playback of the shareable screen recording to prevent leakage of personal content.

[0018] The wireless device can also be equipped with a camera to capture digital image content displayed on the wireless device's screen. The content control module is able to determine which personal content associated with the device's user is captured as part of the digital image content during a screen recording session. The content control module can then hide the personal content captured as part of the digital image content to prevent it from being visually displayed during playback of the shareable screen recording.

[0019] In various aspects of managing personal content during extended display screen recording, the screen recording system includes an extended display device for displaying digital image content received from a wireless device for display. The system also includes a wireless device for providing digital image content for display on the extended display device. The wireless device may also have a screen recording session initiated to capture digital image content as well as audio data. The wireless device implements a content control module that determines that the screen recording session will capture personal content associated with the user of the wireless device. The personal content may be captured as part of the digital image content or as part of the audio data. In various embodiments, the content control module is capable of identifying the personal content as a type of personally identifiable information from a non-public information list.

[0020] The content control module can initiate a private screen review mode, in which personal content can be displayed on the wireless device's screen and is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device. The content control module can filter digital image content and audio data to exclude personally identifiable information associated with the user of the wireless device. The content control module can also generate private screen recordings, which include digital image content and / or audio data, as well as personal content that has not been altered for user review of the private screen recording. The content control module can also generate shareable screen recordings, which include audio data and digital image content displayed on the extended display device, but exclude personal content. Shareable screen recordings are generated for uninterrupted playback without personal content and can be shared with others, such as when posting the recording to any number of social media platforms.

[0021] The wireless device can include a microphone to detect external audio content processed as audio data by the wireless device's audio module. The content control module can determine if personal content associated with the device's user is captured as external audio content during a screen recording session, and then filter the audio data to exclude the external audio content from shareable screen recordings to prevent the disclosure of personal content. The wireless device can also include a camera device for capturing digital image content displayed on an extended display device. The content control module can determine if personal content associated with the device's user is captured as part of digital image content during a screen recording session, and then filter the digital image content to exclude the personal content from shareable screen recordings to prevent the visual display of the personal content.

[0022] While the features and concepts of managing personal content during screen recording can be implemented in many different devices, systems, environments and / or configurations, implementations of managing personal content during screen recording are described in the context of the following example devices, systems and methods.

[0023] Figure 1 The illustration shows an example 100 of a technique, such as wireless device 102, for managing personal content during recording on a device screen. In this example 100, wireless device 102 can be any type of mobile phone, flip phone, computing device, tablet device, and / or any other type of device. Typically, wireless device 102 can be a combination of various components, such as processor system 104 and memory 106, as well as references... Figure 13 The example device shown further describes any type of electronic, computing, and / or communication device implemented by any number of different components or combinations thereof. For example, wireless device 102 is capable of including a power source for powering the device, such as a rechargeable battery and / or any other type of active or passive power source that can be implemented in electronic, computing, and / or communication devices.

[0024] Wireless device 102 includes a display screen 108, which can be a flat display screen or a curved display that rolls over or partially rolls over the vertical side of the wireless device. Wireless device 102 also includes device applications 110, such as text applications, email applications, video service applications, cellular communication applications, music applications, game applications, and / or any other application of many possible types. Many device applications 110 have associated user interfaces generated and displayed for user interaction and viewing, such as the user interface 112 of a game application shown on the display screen 108 of the wireless device in this example. The display screen 108 of wireless device 102 is capable of displaying a user interface associated with any of the device applications 110. Typically, the user interface, or any other type of video, image, graphics, etc., is digital image content 114 that can be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device.

[0025] In this example 100, the wireless device 102 includes a camera device 116, such as a front-facing camera, a rear-facing camera, or multiple camera devices. The camera device 116 can be used to capture still images and / or videos that can also be displayed as digital image content 114 on the display screen 108 of the wireless device. Many different types of device applications 110 are also capable of generating and displaying notifications 118 as a type of digital image content 114 that can be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device. For example, notifications 118 that can be generated by the device application 110 can be displayed as pop-up notifications (such as notifying the user of the device that a new text or email message has been received to indicate an upcoming meeting or event), as indications of incoming phone calls, as calendar or alarm clock reminders, as credit card or bank alerts, or as many other possible types of pop-up and banner notifications that the user can receive on his or her device.

[0026] In this example 100, the wireless device 102 also includes an audio module 120 that processes audio data 122 on the wireless device, such as audio data generated by the device application 110 in conjunction with associated digital image content 114. For example, a game application that generates a user interface 112 shown on the display screen 108 of the wireless device also generates audio data 122 associated with the display of the game user interface. Typically, the game user interface 112 of the game application and the corresponding audio data 122 are derived from a reference, etc. Figure 13 The example device shown is rendered together with the audio and / or video processing system of the wireless device described.

[0027] Wireless device 102 also includes a microphone 124 capable of detecting external audio content 126, which is captured and processed by the wireless device's audio module 120 as part of audio data 122. For example, the wireless device's speaker system may emit audio, such as music, speaker voice, or other audio generated by the device application 110, and the microphone can pick up the audio emitted from the device's speaker system. Similarly, the microphone can detect and pick up other sounds and speech in the environment where the wireless device is being used, and the external audio content 126 from the environment can be processed by the audio module 120 as audio data 122.

[0028] In various embodiments, a screen recording session 128 can be initiated on a wireless device 102 with a media content recording system to capture the recording of digital image content 114 (for including notifications 118) and audio data 122 (for including external audio content 126). Typically, the wireless device includes a screen recording feature that can be initiated by a user operating the device as screen recording session 128 to capture a range of device inputs and operations, application features, and the resulting displayed output. Users can initiate screen recording sessions 128 on the device in any number of various scenarios, such as creating tutorials for others. It is noteworthy that screen recording session 128 can capture any one or more of the digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126 in the recording.

[0029] However, notifications 118, such as the “Bank Alert” notification 130 shown as a received banner notification in this example 100, may be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102 during screen recording session 128. Alternatively or further, the microphone 124 may pick up external audio content 126, or other unintended audio data 122 processed by the audio module 120 in the device during screen recording session 128. For example, a user may configure the wireless device 102 to audibly read out notifications received by the device, such as the audible announcement 132 of the “Bank Alert” notification, which is read out and picked up as external audio content 126 by the device’s microphone 124. These notifications 118 and audio data 122 may contain personal content of the user captured in the recording during screen recording session 128.

[0030] In this example, the notification 130 automatically displayed on the device's display screen 108, along with its audible announcement 132, is then recorded as part of a screen recording session 128 and publicly shared when the recording is posted to any number of social media platforms chosen by the user of the device. Unfortunately, this could result in the user's personal content (also known as "personally identifiable information") being publicly disclosed in the form of audio and / or video content. It is worth noting that users likely do not want this type of personal information shared, such as user contact details, photos, login credentials, financial transaction details, biometric information, medical information, employment information, etc., which are considered private and sensitive data.

[0031] In this example 100, the wireless device 102 implements a content control module 134, which may include separate processing, memory, and / or logic components that act as a computing and / or electronic device integrated with the wireless device 102. Alternatively or further, the content control module 134 may be implemented in software, in hardware, or as a combination of software and hardware components. In this example, the content control module 134 is implemented as a software application or module, such as executable software instructions (e.g., computer-executable instructions) that are available to be executed by the processor of the wireless device 102 (e.g., with processor system 104) to implement the techniques and features described herein for managing personal content during screen recording.

[0032] As a software application or module, the content control module 134 can be stored on a computer-readable storage memory (e.g., the device's memory 106), or in any other suitable memory device or electronic data storage device implemented as a module. Alternatively or further, the content control module 134 can be implemented in firmware and / or at least partially in computer hardware. For example, at least a portion of the module can be executed by a computer processor, and / or at least a portion of the module can be implemented in logic circuitry.

[0033] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 is implemented by the wireless device 102 to determine whether a screen recording session 128 captures personal content 136 associated with the user of the device, wherein the personal content 136 is captured as part of digital image content 114 or as part of audio data 122, to include notifications 118 and external audio content 126. As illustrated in Example 100, media content streams 138 of various media and data streams in the device are captured as part of the screen recording session 128, namely digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126.

[0034] Content control module 134 can be implemented using any of a variety of public or proprietary algorithms or other logics to identify user-associated personal content 136 as any type of personally identifiable information (PII) from a non-public information list 140. Content control module 134 can distinguish between personal and non-personal content and identify device applications 110 that are likely to include PII data, such as emails, calendars, contacts, reminders, memory aids, shopping lists, and any type of information that is generally personal in nature to the user of the device or related to the foregoing. Non-personal content can include weather, news, time and sports updates, and any other type of readily available public information.

[0035] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 is capable of determining that personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device 102 is captured during the screen recording session 128 as any one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126. The content control module 134 is then capable of generating a user screen recording 142 with a first authorized access level for the user of the device, and also generating a shareable screen recording 144 with a second authorized access level to prevent disclosure of the personal content 136 captured during the screen recording session 128. The content control module 134 generates each of the user screen recording 142 and the shareable screen recording 144 as an aggregation of media content from various input streams of digital image content and audio data and under different authorized access levels.

[0036] User screen recording 142 is generated without filtering personal content 136 and has a user-authorized access level (e.g., a first authorized access level or a higher level of authorized access). User screen recording 142 includes one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 that is unaltered or unfiltered for user review of the user screen recording. It is also possible to implement the content control module 134 to provide the user with the option to create a password for the user's authorized access level and to protect the user screen recording 142 with a password known to the user of the device initiating the screen recording session 128.

[0037] Additionally, the shareable screen recording 144 is generated with personal content 136 filtered and has a shared access authorization level (e.g., a second access authorization level or a lower level of access authorization). The shareable screen recording 144 includes one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 obfuscated to prevent disclosure of personal content associated with the user of the device. Users may also be provided with the option to create a password for the shared access authorization level. Additionally, users of the wireless device 102 may be provided with filtering options such as filtering digital image content 114 containing personal content 136, filtering audio data 122 containing personal content, or both. Users can filter the shareable screen recording 144 by selectively muting and / or blurring or otherwise hiding a portion of the recorded visual content of the recorded audio output.

[0038] For example, the content control module 134 can generate a shareable screen recording 144 to mute the audio output of the audio portion of the audio data 122 containing personal content 136 during playback of the shareable screen recording, to prevent the disclosure of personal content captured as part of the audio data. Additionally, the content control module 134 can hide the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 captured as part of the screen recording session 128 to prevent the personal content from being visually displayed during playback of the shareable screen recording. For example, the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 can be blurred or otherwise altered, such as by using an overlay to prevent the display of the personal content. Alternatively, portions or segments of previous and / or subsequent digital frames of the digital image content can be used to mask the personal content 136, thereby providing an uninterrupted visual appearance to the screen recording session 128 used to generate the shareable screen recording 144.

[0039] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 is capable of generating user screen recordings 142 and shareable screen recordings 144 while the screen recording session 128 is in progress, during post-processing after the recording is generated, or in some combination thereof. It is noteworthy that when shareable screen recordings are shared, such as via any number of available social media platforms, viewers of the recording will not have access to obfuscated personal content 136, such as muted audio containing personal content and / or hidden portions of digital image content containing personal content.

[0040] Figure 2 Further illustrations, such as those described in this article, use references. Figure 1 Example 200 illustrates and describes aspects and characteristics of personal content managed by the wireless device 102 during device screen recording. As shown in this example, a content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 generates user screen recordings 142 and shareable screen recordings 144. As noted above, user screen recordings 142 are generated without filtering personal content 136, and the user of the wireless device can review user screen recordings 142 on his or her device, including personal content 136 such as notifications 130 and audible announcements 132 displayed on the device's display screen 108.

[0041] Additionally, the shareable screen recording 144 is generated after the personal content 136 has been filtered so that the personal content associated with the user of the device is not disclosed after the recording is uploaded (e.g., to the "cloud") and shared on social media as a shared recording 204 for others to view. For example, the content control module 134 is capable of generating the shareable screen recording 144 to mute the audio output 202 of the audio portion of the audio data 122 containing the personal content 136 during playback of the shareable screen recording, to prevent the disclosure of the personal content captured as part of the audio data.

[0042] Additionally, the content control module 134 is capable of hiding the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 captured as part of the screen recording session 128 to prevent the personal content from being visually displayed during playback of the shareable screen recording. As shown in this example, the notification 130 captured with the screen recording session 128 and generated as part of the shareable screen recording 144 is hidden by the overlay 206. Any other techniques, such as blurring, editing, removal, etc., can be implemented so that the personal content is not revealed during playback of the shareable screen recording 144 when viewed by others.

[0043] Refer to the corresponding implementation of personal content managed during screen recording, such as during device screen recording or during extended display screen recording. Figure 3-6 and Figure 9-12Example methods 300, 400, 500, and 600, as well as example methods 900, 1000, 1100, and 1200, are described. Generally, any service, component, module, method, and / or operation described herein can be implemented using software, firmware, hardware (e.g., fixed logic circuitry), manual processing, or any combination thereof. Some operations of the example methods can be described in the general context of executable instructions stored on computer-readable storage memory local and / or remote on a computer processing system, and implementations can include software applications, programs, functions, etc. Alternatively or additionally, any of the functionalities described herein can be executed at least partially by one or more hardware logic components, such as, but not limited to, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), application-specific standard products (ASSPs), system-on-a-chip (SoCs), complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs), etc.

[0044] Figure 3 The illustration depicts an example method 300 for managing personal content during device screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0045] At 302, digital image content is displayed on the display screen of the wireless device. For example, the wireless device 102 includes any number of device applications 110 that generate digital image content 114, which is displayed for user interaction and viewing on the device's display screen 108, such as the user interface 112 of a game application displayed on the wireless device's display screen 108. The display screen 108 of the wireless device 102 is capable of displaying an application user interface or any other type of digital image content 114 associated with any of the device applications 110. Typically, an application user interface or any other type of video, image, graphics, etc., is digital image content 114 that can be displayed on the wireless device's display screen 108.

[0046] At 304, audio data is processed by the audio module of the wireless device. For example, the audio module 120 of the wireless device 102 processes audio data 122 on the wireless device, such as audio data generated by the device application 110 in conjunction with associated digital image content 114. For example, a game application that generates a user interface 112 displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device also generates audio data 122 associated with the display of the game user interface. Typically, the game user interface 112 of the game application and the corresponding audio data 122 are derived from a reference, etc. Figure 13 The example device shown is rendered together with the audio and / or video processing system of the wireless device described.

[0047] At 306, it is determined that the screen recording session captures personal content associated with the user of the wireless device, which is captured as part of digital image content or audio data. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 determines that the screen recording session 128 captures personal content 136 associated with the user of the device, wherein the personal content 136 is captured as part of a media content stream 138 of various media and data streams in the device (such as digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126). The content control module 134 is capable of distinguishing personal content from non-personal content and identifying the personal content 136 associated with the user as any type of personally identifiable information (PII) from a non-public information list 140.

[0048] At 308, a user screen recording is generated, and this user screen recording has a user-authorized access level. The user screen recording includes digital image content and / or audio data, as well as personal content that is not altered for user review of the user screen recording. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 generates a user screen recording 142 without filtering personal content 136 and has a user-authorized access level (e.g., a first authorized access level or a higher level of authorized access). The user screen recording 142 includes one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 that is not altered or filtered for user review of the user screen recording.

[0049] At 310, a shareable screen recording is generated, and this shareable screen recording has a shared access level. The shareable screen recording includes obfuscated personal content as well as digital image content and / or audio data. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 generates a shareable screen recording 144 with filtered personal content 136 and a shared access level (e.g., a second access level or a lower level of access level). The shareable screen recording 144 includes one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 obfuscated to prevent disclosure of personal content associated with the user of the device.

[0050] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 generates a shareable screen recording 144 to mute the audio output 202 of the audio portion of the audio data 122 containing personal content 136 during playback of the shareable screen recording to prevent leakage of the personal content captured as part of the audio data. Additionally, the content control module 134 can hide the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 to prevent the personal content from being visually displayed during playback of the shareable screen recording. For example, the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 can be blurred or otherwise altered, such as by using a covering 206 to prevent the display of the personal content.

[0051] Figure 4 The illustration depicts an example method 400 for managing personal content during device screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0052] At 402, external audio content is detected using the microphone of the wireless device, and this external audio content is processed into audio data by the audio module of the wireless device. For example, microphone 124 of wireless device 102 detects external audio content 126, which is captured and processed into audio data 122 by the device's audio module 120. For example, the speaker system of the wireless device may emit audio, such as music, speaker voice, or other types of audio, and the microphone is able to pick up the audio emitted from the device's speaker system. Similarly, the microphone may detect and pick up other sounds and speech in the environment where the wireless device is being used, and the external audio content 126 from the environment is processed into audio data 122 by the audio module 120.

[0053] At 404, it is determined that personal content associated with the user of the wireless device is captured as external audio content during the screen recording session. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 determines that personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device 102 is captured as external audio content 126 during the screen recording session 128. The microphone 124 is capable of picking up the external audio content 126, which is processed by the audio module 120 in the device during the screen recording session. For example, the user can configure the wireless device 102 to audibly read out a notification received by the device, which is then picked up by the device's microphone 124 as external audio content 126 and can be included in the user's personal content captured in the recording during the screen recording session 128.

[0054] At 406, a shareable screen recording is generated to mute the audio output of the audio data during playback of the shareable screen recording to prevent leakage of personal content. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 generates a shareable screen recording 144 to mute the audio output 202 of the audio portion of the audio data 122 containing personal content 136 during playback of the shareable screen recording to prevent leakage of personal content captured as part of the audio data.

[0055] Figure 5 The illustration depicts an example method 500 for managing personal content during device screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0056] At point 502, a camera device of the wireless device captures digital image content, which is then displayed on the display screen of the wireless device. For example, camera device 116 of wireless device 102 captures digital image content 114 displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device. Camera device 116 can be a front-facing camera, a rear-facing camera, or multiple camera devices, and can be used to capture still images and / or videos that can be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device as digital image content 114.

[0057] At point 504, it is determined that personal content associated with the user of the wireless device is captured as part of digital image content during a screen recording session. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 determines that personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device 102 is captured as part of digital image content 114 during a screen recording session 128. When activated, the camera device 116 can capture the personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device as part of digital image content 114, which is displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device and subsequently captured as part of the screen recording session 128.

[0058] At 506, personal content captured as part of the digital image content is hidden to prevent visual display of the personal content during playback of the shareable screen recording. For example, the content control module 134, implemented by the wireless device 102, generates the shareable screen recording 144 and hides the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 to prevent visual display of the personal content during playback of the shareable screen recording. For example, the visual portion of the digital image content 114 containing personal content 136 can be blurred or otherwise altered, such as by using a covering 206 to prevent the display of the personal content.

[0059] Figure 6 The illustration depicts an example method 600 for managing personal content during device screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0060] At point 602, it is determined that the screen recording session captures personal content associated with the user of the wireless device, which is captured as part of media content processed by the wireless device. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 determines that the screen recording session 128 captures personal content 136 associated with the user of the device, wherein the personal content 136 is captured as part of a media content stream 138 of various media and data streams in the device (such as digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126). The content control module 134 is capable of distinguishing personal content from non-personal content and identifying the personal content 136 associated with the user as any type of personally identifiable information (PII) from a non-public information list 140.

[0061] At 604, a user screen recording is generated, and this user screen recording has a user-authorized access level. The user screen recording includes media content and personal content that has not been altered for user review of the user screen recording. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 generates a user screen recording 142 without filtering personal content 136 and has a user-authorized access level (e.g., a first authorized access level or a higher level of authorized access). The user screen recording 142 includes media content as one or more of digital image content 114, notification 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 that has not been altered or filtered for user review of the user screen recording.

[0062] At 606, a shareable screen recording is generated, and this shareable screen recording has a shared access level. The shareable screen recording includes media content as well as obfuscated personal content. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 generates a shareable screen recording 144 with filtered personal content 136 and a shared access level (e.g., a second access level or a lower access level). The shareable screen recording 144 includes media content as one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 obfuscated to prevent disclosure of personal content associated with the user of the device.

[0063] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 generates a shareable screen recording 144 to mute the audio output 202 of the audio portion of the media content (e.g., audio data 122) containing personal content 136 during playback of the shareable screen recording to prevent leakage of the personal content captured as part of the media content. Additionally, the content control module 134 is capable of hiding visual portions of the media content (e.g., digital image content 114) containing personal content 136 to prevent the personal content from being visually displayed during playback of the shareable screen recording. For example, the visual portions of the media content containing personal content 136 can be blurred or otherwise altered, such as by using a covering 206 to prevent the display of the personal content.

[0064] Figure 7 Illustrations such as those using references Figure 1 Example 700 of a technique 700 for managing personal content during extended display screen recording is shown and described using a wireless device 102. In this example 700, the screen recording system includes an extended display device 702 to display digital image content 704 received for display. The screen recording system also includes a wireless device 102 that provides digital image content for display on the extended display device 702 via a wired or wireless connection to the extended display device. As shown in this example, digital image content 114 of a game application user interface displayed on a display screen 108 of the wireless device is also provided as digital image content 704 to be displayed on the extended display device 702.

[0065] In various embodiments, a screen recording session 706 can be initiated on a wireless device 102 with a media content recording system to capture the recording of digital image content 114 (for including notifications 118) and audio data 122 (for including external audio content 126). Typically, the wireless device includes a screen recording feature that can be initiated by a user operating the device as screen recording session 706 to capture a series of device inputs and operations, application features, and the resulting display output. Notably, screen recording session 706 can capture any one or more of the digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126 in the recording.

[0066] Utilizing standard screen recording features, notifications 118 displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102 during screen recording session 706 will also be displayed in this example 700 of the screen recording system as part of the digital image content 704 displayed on the extended display device 702. Additionally, the microphone 124 may pick up external audio content 126, or other unintended audio data 122 processed by the audio module 120 in the device during the screen recording session 706. These notifications 118 and audio data 122 may be included in the recording of the user's personal content during the screen recording session 706.

[0067] In this example 700, the wireless device 102 implements a content control module 134, which is configured to monitor, identify, and determine that personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device 102 will be captured during a screen recording session 706 as part of digital image content 114 or as part of audio data 122, including notifications 118 and external audio content 126. The content control module 134 is capable of monitoring the personal content 136 at the device's operating system level, application layer, and / or data layer. As illustrated in example 700, media content streams 138 of various media and data streams in the device are captured as part of the screen recording session 706 (i.e., digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126).

[0068] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 is capable of initiating a private screen review mode to generate a private screen recording 708 and filtering digital image content 114 and audio data 122 to exclude personal content 136 (e.g., personally identifiable information) associated with the user of the wireless device. In private screen review mode, personal content 136 may be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, but is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device 702. For example, a “bank alarm” notification 130, shown as a received banner notification displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, is not transmitted or provided as part of the digital image content 114 for display on the extended display device 702 as part of the displayed digital image content 704. Additionally, the audible announcement 132 of the “bank alarm” notification is not extended for playback by the speaker system of the extended display device 702 (or playback to any other external speaker system). Only the wireless device 102 displays the incoming notification 118 and / or emits audio output of audio data 122 from the personal content 136 that may include the device's user.

[0069] Content control module 134 is capable of generating a private screen recording 708 that includes media content output at wireless device 102, and also capable of generating a shareable screen recording 710 that includes media content captured during screen recording session 706 and output at extended display device 702. Content control module 134 generates each of the private screen recording 708 and the shareable screen recording 710 as an aggregation of media content from various input streams of digital image content and audio data. Additionally, each of the private screen recording 708 and the shareable screen recording 710 can be generated at different authorized access levels.

[0070] Content control module 134 generates private screen recording 708 to include one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 that is unaltered or unfiltered for user review of the private screen recording. Content control module 134 can also be implemented to provide the user with the option to create a password and protect the private screen recording 708 with a password known to the user of the device initiating the screen recording session 706.

[0071] Content control module 134 also generates shareable screen recordings 710 from screen recording session 706 to include only media content output at extended display device 702, excluding any personal content 136 that may be associated with the user of the device and output at wireless device 102. Content control module 134 filters out personal content 136, such that shareable screen recordings 144 include one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, and are generated for uninterrupted playback in the absence of personal content.

[0072] In various embodiments, the content control module 134 is capable of generating private screen recordings 708 and shareable screen recordings 710 while a screen recording session 706 is in progress, during post-processing after the recording is generated, or in some combination thereof. It is worth noting that when shareable screen recordings 710 are shared, such as via any number of available social media platforms, the recording will not include any personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device.

[0073] Figure 8 Further illustrations, such as those described in this article, use references. Figure 7Examples 800 show and describe aspects and characteristics of personal content managed by the wireless device 102 during extended display screen recording. As shown in this example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 is capable of initiating a private screen review mode 802 and generating a private screen recording 708 and a shareable screen recording 710. In the private screen review mode 802, personal content 136 may be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, but is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device. For example, a “bank alert” notification 130 shown as a received banner notification is displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, but is not transmitted or provided as part of digital image content for display on the extended display device. Additionally, as noted above, the private screen recording 708 is generated based on the media content output at the wireless device 102 to include personal content 136. The user of the wireless device is able to review private screen recordings 708 on his or her device, including personal content 136, such as notifications 130 displayed on the device's display screen 108 and audible announcements 132 emitted as audio from the device's speaker system.

[0074] Additionally, the shareable screen recording 710 is generated by the content control module 134, excluding personal content 136 so that the personal content associated with the user of the device is not disclosed after the recording is uploaded (e.g., to the “cloud”) and shared as a shared recording 804 on social media for viewing by others. For example, the content control module 134 is capable of generating the shareable screen recording 710 to include digital image content and audio data, without any personal content 136 of the user of the wireless device 102.

[0075] Figure 9 The illustration depicts an example method 900 for managing personal content during extended display screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0076] At 902, digital image content is displayed on the extended display device. For example, wireless device 102 provides digital image content 704 for display on extended display device 702. Extended display features specify that digital image content 114 displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device is also provided for display as digital image content 704 on extended display device 702. Typically, application user interfaces or any other type of video, images, graphics, etc., are digital image content 114 that can be displayed on extended display device 702.

[0077] At 904, audio data is processed by the audio module of the wireless device. For example, the audio module 120 of the wireless device 102 processes audio data 122 on the wireless device, such as audio data generated by the device application 110 in conjunction with associated digital image content 114. For example, a game application that generates a user interface 112 displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device also generates audio data 122 associated with the display of the game user interface. Typically, the game user interface 112 of the game application and the corresponding audio data 122 are generated by a reference, etc. Figure 13 The example device shown is rendered together with the audio and / or video processing system of the wireless device described.

[0078] At 906, it is determined that the screen recording session will capture personal content associated with the user of the wireless device. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device monitors to determine that the screen recording session 706 will capture personal content 136 associated with the user of the device, wherein the personal content 136 will be included as part of a media content stream 138 of various media and data streams in the device (such as digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126). The content control module 134 is capable of distinguishing personal content from non-personal content and identifying the personal content 136 associated with the user as any type of personally identifiable information (PII) from a non-public information list 140.

[0079] At 908, digital image content and audio data are filtered to exclude personally identifiable information associated with the user of the wireless device. For example, content control module 134, implemented by wireless device 102, filters digital image content 114 and audio data 122 (to include notification 118 and / or external audio content 126) to exclude any personally identifiable information associated with the user of the wireless device.

[0080] At point 910, a private screen review mode is initiated, in which personal content may be displayed on the display screen of the wireless device and is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 is capable of initiating a private screen review mode to generate a private screen recording 708 and filter digital image content 114 and audio data 122 to exclude personal content 136 (e.g., personally identifiable information) associated with the user of the wireless device. In private screen review mode, personal content 136 may be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, but is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device 702. For example, a “bank alarm” notification 130, shown as a banner notification displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, is not delivered or provided as part of the digital image content 114 for display on the extended display device 702 as part of the displayed digital image content 704. Additionally, the audible announcement 132 of the “bank alarm” notification is not extended for playback by the speaker system of the extended display device 702 (or for playback to any other external speaker system). Only the wireless device 102 displays the incoming notification 118 and / or sends audio data 122 from the user's personal content 136, which may include the device.

[0081] At 912, a shareable screen recording is generated, which includes audio data and digital image content displayed on the extended display device, but excludes personal content. For example, the content control module 134, implemented by the wireless device 102, generates a shareable screen recording 710 from the screen recording session 706 to include only the media content output at the extended display device 702, excluding any personal content 136 that may be associated with the user of the device and output at the wireless device 102. The content control module 134 filters out the personal content 136, such that the shareable screen recording 144 includes one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, and is generated for uninterrupted playback in the absence of personal content.

[0082] At 914, a private screen recording is generated, which includes digital image content and / or audio data, as well as personal content that is not altered for user review of the private screen recording. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 generates a private screen recording 708 to include one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 that is not altered or filtered for user review of the private screen recording.

[0083] Figure 10The illustration depicts an example method 1000 for managing personal content during extended display screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0084] At point 1002, external audio content is detected using the microphone of the wireless device, and this external audio content is processed into audio data by the audio module of the wireless device. For example, microphone 124 of wireless device 102 detects external audio content 126, which is captured and processed into audio data 122 by the device's audio module 120. For example, the speaker system of the wireless device may emit audio, such as music, speaker voice, or other types of audio, and the microphone is able to pick up the audio emitted from the device's speaker system. Similarly, the microphone may detect and pick up other sounds and speech in the environment where the wireless device is being used, and the external audio content 126 from the environment is processed into audio data 122 by the audio module 120.

[0085] At 1004, it is determined that personal content associated with the user of the wireless device will be captured as external audio content during the screen recording session. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 determines that personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device 102 will be captured as external audio content 126 during the screen recording session 128. The microphone 124 is capable of picking up the external audio content 126 processed by the audio module 120 in the device during the screen recording session. For example, the user can configure the wireless device 102 to audibly read out a notification received by the device, which is then picked up by the device's microphone 124 as external audio content 126 and can be included in the user's personal content captured in the recording during the screen recording session 128.

[0086] At 1006, audio data is filtered to exclude external audio content from the shareable screen recording to prevent the leakage of personal content. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 filters audio data 122 to exclude external audio content 126 from the shareable screen recording to prevent the leakage of personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device.

[0087] Figure 11 The illustration depicts an example method 1100 for managing personal content during extended display screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0088] At 1102, digital image content is captured by the camera device of the wireless device and displayed on the extended display device. For example, camera device 116 of wireless device 102 captures digital image content 114 that is displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device and extended for display as digital image content 704 on the extended display device 702. Camera device 116 can be a front-facing camera, a rear-facing camera, or multiple camera devices, and can be used to capture still images and / or videos that can be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device and on the extended display device 702.

[0089] At 1104, it is determined that personal content associated with the user of the wireless device will be captured as part of digital image content during the screen recording session. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 determines that personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device 102 will be captured as part of digital image content 114 during the screen recording session 128. When activated, the camera device 116 can capture the personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device as part of the digital image content 114 that is displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device and expanded for display on the extended display device 702.

[0090] At 1106, digital image content is filtered to exclude personal content from shareable screen recordings to prevent the visual display of personal content. For example, content control module 134, implemented by wireless device 102, filters digital image content 114 to exclude digital image content from shareable screen recordings to prevent the disclosure of personal content 136 associated with the user of the wireless device.

[0091] Figure 12 The illustration depicts an example method 1200 for managing personal content during extended display screen recording, and is generally described with reference to a wireless device and a content control module implemented by that device. The order in which the methods are described is not intended to be construed as limiting, and any number of the described method operations or combinations thereof can be performed in any order to perform the methods or alternative methods.

[0092] At 1202, digital image content is provided for display on the extended display device. For example, wireless device 102 provides digital image content 704 as media content for display on the extended display device 702.

[0093] At 1204, it is determined that the screen recording session will capture personal content associated with the user of the wireless device, which is detected as part of media content processed by the wireless device, including digital image content and / or audio data. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device monitors to determine that the screen recording session 706 will capture personal content 136 associated with the user of the device, wherein the personal content 136 will be included as part of a media content stream 138 of various media and data streams in the device (such as digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and / or external audio content 126). The content control module 134 is capable of distinguishing personal content from non-personal content and identifying the personal content 136 associated with the user as any type of personally identifiable information (PII) from a non-public information list 140.

[0094] At 1206, media content is filtered to exclude personal content associated with the user of the wireless device. For example, content control module 134, implemented by wireless device 102, filters media content to exclude any personally identifiable information associated with the user of the wireless device.

[0095] At 1208, a shareable screen recording is generated and includes audio data and / or digital image content displayed on the extended display device, but excludes personal content. For example, the content control module 134, implemented by the wireless device 102, generates a shareable screen recording 710 from the screen recording session 706 to include only the media content output at the extended display device 702, excluding any personal content 136 that may be associated with the user of the device and output at the wireless device 102. The content control module 134 filters out the personal content 136, such that the shareable screen recording 144 includes media content and is generated for uninterrupted playback in the absence of personal content.

[0096] At 1210, a private screen review mode is initiated, in which personal content can be displayed on the wireless device's display screen but is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device. For example, the content control module 134 implemented by the wireless device 102 can initiate the private screen review mode to generate a private screen recording 708 and filter media content to exclude personal content 136 (e.g., personally identifiable information) associated with the user of the wireless device. In the private screen review mode, personal content 136 can be displayed on the display screen 108 of the wireless device 102, but is prevented from being visually displayed on the extended display device 702.

[0097] At 1212, a private screen recording is generated and includes digital image content and / or audio data, as well as personal content that is not altered for user review of the private screen recording. For example, a content control module 134 implemented by wireless device 102 generates a private screen recording 708 to include one or more of digital image content 114, notifications 118, audio data 122, and external audio content 126, as well as personal content 136 that is not altered or filtered for user review of the private screen recording.

[0098] Figure 13 The illustrations show various components of an example device 1300 capable of implementing various aspects of the technologies and features for managing personal content during screen recording as described herein.
