`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`The Board Should Not Deny Institution Under 35 U.S.C. § 325(d)
`
`Synchview fails to satisfy the first prong of the two-part framework set forth
`
`I.
`
`
`in Advanced Bionics v. MED-EL Elektromedizinische Geräte GmbH, IPR2019-
`
`01469, Paper 6, at 7-11 (PTAB Feb. 13, 2020) (precedential) (“Advanced Bionics”),
`
`with its argument that Girard is cumulative of the Young reference that was
`
`considered by the Examiner and that institution should be denied under § 325(d).
`
`See Paper 14 (“Order”) at 4-5 (citing Paper 8 (“POPR”) at 3-4). With regard to step
`
`(1), Synchview’s only contention is that Girard is “substantially the same art” that
`
`was before the Office because Synchview contends “Girard is cumulative to Young
`
`as it relates to the ‘synchronization’ element.” Paper 15 (“PO Br.”) at 3. It is not.
`
`First, the technology described in Young is completely different from Girard’s
`
`system. Young describes a system with an interface for controlling operation of a
`
`VCR, such as by allowing a selection of a future program from a program guide to
`
`be recorded. See, e.g., Ex. 2006 at 1:15-27, 2:3-6, 13:28-38, 14:1-28; Figs. 22A-22B.
`
`The system 180 depicts a schedule/tape controller 220 external to the VCR 206,
`
`while the system 182 depicts an alternative embodiment where the schedule/tape
`
`controller 220 is embedded in the VCR 211. Id. at 12:53-65, 13:28-38, 14:16-19,
`
`Figs. 22A-22B. In both embodiments, the system’s CPU, upon detecting that the
`
`clock matches the scheduled time for a selected program, will change the tuner to
`
`the channel for the program and cause the VCR to power on and begin recording to
`
`
`

`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`a tape in the VCR. Id. at 13:28-38, 14:23-24. A tape index screen displays the
`
`contents of the video tape in a virtual tape directory that is stored off-tape in a
`
`separate external non-volatile memory.
`
`VCRs, of course, cannot record and digitally store multiple programs
`
`concurrently, as required by the ’882 Patent claims, and instead record programs in
`
`analog sequentially on a tape—an aspect of VCRs disparaged by the ’882 Patent.
`
`Ex.1001 at 1:24-30 (VCRs record to magnetic tape which is “inherently sequential
`
`and slow in access”), 1:43-47 (“the user [of a VCR] cannot watch a recorded
`
`program and simultaneously record another”). The ’882 Patent describes “the
`
`temporal storage of more than one video channel (e.g., television or cable channels)”
`
`(id. at 5:22-28) and states that the traditional recording techniques of VCRs do not
`
`support its requirements. Id. at 5:58-63. Instead, “[t]he present invention provides
`
`for all channels, or some subset thereof, to be concurrently recorded, at all times,
`
`onto a random-access medium” and describes computer hard disks as the primary
`
`examples.1 Id. at 5:64-6:4, 6:54-65, 7:35-47 (describing ability to record 213
`
`channels for 24 hours on a commercially available 47 GB drive). As Young
`
`acknowledges, a video tape is a “non-random access storage” (Ex. 2006 at 8:58-64),
`
`and Young is forced to provide a virtual tape index with an on-screen tape position
`
`
`1 All emphases have been added unless indicated otherwise.

`gauge 94 with pointer arrow 80 to help the user determine how far to rewind or fast-
`
`forward to get to a desired program on the tape. Id. at 8:35-57, 9:17-10:27, Fig. 13.
`
`In contrast, as Synchview has not disputed, Girard’s system both concurrently
`
`and digitally stores multiple television programs airing at the same time using a
`
`“continuous media server” having multiple dedicated servers that control multiple
`
`disk array storage subsystems having high capacity disks, each individually on the
`
`order of gigabytes in size. See Paper 1 (“Pet.”) at 16-19; See also Ex. 1003 at 4:48-
`
`5:14, 6:13-20. While Young refers to using “a video cassette recorder (VCR) or
`
`other recording device,” it never describes any such “other recording device,” and it
`
`never discloses digitally storing television programs. Young also never discloses
`
`concurrently recording and digitally storing multiple programs at the same time.
`
`Synchview misleadingly suggests Young’s guide depicted in Figures 1-3 shows
`
`plural “programs currently being recorded” (PO Br. at 2) but the figures only depict
`
`a single program currently being recorded (as would be expected with a VCR). Ex.
`
`2006 at Figs. 1-3; 6:25-34. Girard, therefore, is not cumulative of Young and differs
`
`in significant ways that are fundamental to the ’882 Patent, including the concurrent
`
`digital storage of multiple programs and the departure from traditional VCR
`
`technology. Both Becton factors (a) and (b), therefore, weigh in favor of institution.
`
`See Becton, Dickinson & Co. v. B. Braun Melsungen AG, IPR2017-01586, Paper 8
`
`(Dec. 15, 2017) (precedential as to § III.C.5, first paragraph) (“Becton”).

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`Second, Synchview appears to contend that Girard is cumulative of Young
`
`only with regard to the so-called “‘synchronization’ element.” PO Br. at 4-5. But the
`
`Examiner never applied Young to the “synchronization element,” nor to any element
`
`of the independent claims. The Examiner only applied Young to certain dependent
`
`claims—specifically for the channel guide displaying content information required
`
`by original claims 7-8 and 26-27. Ex. 1002 at 120-121. Thus, Petitioner is not
`
`applying Girard in any way that Young was applied by the Examiner or argued
`
`against by the applicant during prosecution.
`
`Synchview misleadingly suggests the Examiner made an express finding that
`
`Young’s guide “had nothing to do with the storage of programs” in justifying why
`
`the Examiner “did not apply Young against the ‘synchronization’ element.” PO Br.
`
`at 4. The applicant had argued that Young’s channel guide was not combinable with
`
`Logan’s system for claims 7-8 and 26-27 because Young discloses “the type of serial
`
`access video tape technology that Logan et al. was intended to replace.” Ex. 1002 at
`
`158-159. The Examiner’s statement was merely indicating that the element of Young
`
`being combined—its channel guide—would not be dependent on the particular
`
`recording medium used. The synchronization element was not even required by
`
`those particular claims (id. at 60-66), and the Examiner was not suggesting that using
`
`stored time information, such as program start times, presented in a program guide,
`
`along with stored concurrent programs would not “allow” those stored programs “to
`
`
`
`4
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`be synchronized with respect to one another,” as recited in the issued claims. And
`
`the file history, of course, does not reflect whether the Examiner made any such
`
`conscious decision to “not apply Young” to other elements—indeed, the most
`
`plausible explanation for the Examiner’s limited reliance on Young is Young’s
`
`failure to disclose key limitations fundamental to the ’882 invention, including the
`
`concurrent receipt and digital storage of multiple television programs. Becton factor
`
`(d), therefore, also supports institution. All three Becton factors relevant to step (1)
`
`in the Advanced Bionics framework (i.e., (a), (b), and (d)) demonstrate that the
`
`Office has not previously considered “substantially the same art” or “substantially
`
`the same arguments” relied on by Petitioner because Young is not substantially the
`
`same art as Girard and was not applied or argued similarly. Therefore, § 325(d) does
`
`not apply under Advanced Bionics, and step (2) is not reached.
`
`II. Girard Discloses a Digital Video Recorder
`
`Synchview does not dispute that Girard’s interactive television system 20
`
`records and stores video digitally for a plurality of channels and programs
`
`concurrently. Yet Synchview contends this system does not disclose a “digital video
`
`recorder” (DVR) because it is “an on-demand system rather than a DVR” based on
`
`a false dichotomy that a digital video recorder and an on-demand system that records
`
`video digitally are mutually exclusive concepts. PO Br. at 6-7. This is flatly
`
`
`
`5
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`contradicted by the ’882 Patent’s own words discussing the drawbacks of VCRs and
`
`the need to record channels concurrently to enable future “on demand” viewing:
`
`Ideally, a user should be able to walk up to his television set and be able
`to view, on demand and without delay, everything that he missed
`during some previous period of time (for instance one day), regardless
`of channel. Therefore, what is needed in the art is a fundamental
`increase in the flexibility afforded a user in viewing programs aired
`over multiple channels.
`
`Ex. 1001 at 1:50-56. The ’882 Patent facilitates such “on demand” viewing
`
`“regardless of channel” with embodiments that record the plurality of channels “as
`
`a matter of course, and without being specifically prompted,” which “may be thought
`
`of as ‘automatic’ recording” where the user “is relieved of the responsibility of
`
`starting and stopping recording, allowing the user to view any video recorded during
`
`the window of time.” Id. at 2:34-43; see also id. at 2:6-16. And while the ’882 Patent
`
`has embodiments that can facilitate allowing the user to select the plurality of
`
`channels for recording, “[a]lternatively, the DVR may record all available
`
`channels indiscriminately” and “is not limited to a particular manner in which
`
`channels are selected for recording.” Id. at 3:59-67; see also id. at 5:24-28 (“[i]f
`
`all channels available to the user in question are recorded”); 5:64-66 (“The present
`
`invention provides for all channels, or some subset thereof, to be concurrently
`
`recorded, at all times, onto a random-access medium.”); Pet. at 8. Thus, the ’882
`
`
`
`6
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`Patent encompasses automatically recording all television channels available to the
`
`user to allow the user to view any past programs on demand and regardless of
`
`channel. This is indistinguishable from Girard’s interactive television system 20 that
`
`Synchview attempts to distinguish as an “on demand system.” To construe a “digital
`
`video recorder (DVR)” as not encompassing such a system would be to improperly
`
`exclude expressly disclosed preferred embodiments of “the present invention” of the
`
`’882 Patent.
`
`
`
`Synchview’s related attempt to distinguish Girard’s system by arguing the
`
`“set-top-box user has no control over what (or whether) programs are recorded” (PO
`
`Br. at 7) fares no better. As set forth above, the ’882 Patent expressly contemplates
`
`automatically recording all channels indiscriminately and is expressly not limited to
`
`requiring user selection of a particular plurality of channels to be recorded. And the
`
`plain claim language similarly imposes no such requirement of user selection. See,
`
`e.g., Claim 1. Synchview’s attempt to read such a requirement into the term “DVR”
`
`via dictionary definitions is, therefore, directly contrary to the intrinsic evidence and
`
`the expressly disclosed embodiments, and, thus, improper.
`
`Synchview’s arguments regarding the applicant’s efforts to distinguish Shaw
`
`and Hite are also misplaced. PO Br. at 8-9. The applicants did not distinguish Shaw
`
`based on it being an on-demand system, nor did they argue that such systems that
`
`record video digitally are not digital video recorders. The applicants distinguished
`
`
`
`7
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`Shaw by arguing it merely pre-stored movies and therefore never actually received
`
`and recorded a plurality of television channels—not because it was an “on demand
`
`system.” Ex. 1002 at 241. With regard to Hite, Synchview adds italics to the
`
`applicant’s use of the term “video on-demand system” to suggest Hite was
`
`distinguished based on being such a system (PO Br. at 9). But it was not. The
`
`applicant distinguished Hite’s routing of targeted television commercials because
`
`they were not “received and stored concurrently”—not because it was an on-demand
`
`system. Ex. 1002 at 236. Applicants made no disavowal during prosecution (which
`
`would have been contrary to the ’882 specification) that an on-demand system that
`
`records and digitally stores video (like Girard) cannot be a “digital video recorder.”
`
`Next, on an issue that the Board’s April 22, 2020 Order did not seek further
`
`briefing on (Paper 14 at 3-5), Synchview contends that the Board was correct to
`
`construe a “digital video recorder” as requiring “VCR-like functionality,” that “user
`
`control over recording is a basic aspect of VCR-like functionality,” and that Girard
`
`fails to teach such user control over recording. PO Br. at 9-12. Synchview appears
`
`to be proposing a new construction that further narrows the Board’s construction to
`
`impose a requirement of VCR-like functionality with respect to “user control over
`
`recording.” Id. at 9-10. And Synchview then tries to use this further requirement to
`
`argue that even though the ’882 Patent teaches that its DVR can “record[] all
`
`channels without requiring the user to select particular channels or programs,” the
`
`
`
`8
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`user is still “in control” because the user can cause the DVR to not record such as by
`
`turning it off or not connecting it and because the ’882 Patent teaches that a user can
`
`deselect a channel for recording. Id. at 12-13. Synchview then argues Girard does
`
`not teach such control. Id. at 13. This argument is incorrect on numerous levels.
`
`First, the Board’s claim construction of “DVR” had only required “VCR-like
`
`functionality with respect to earlier-recorded, digitized content.” Paper 11 (“DI”) at
`
`11, 13. The Board did not impose a requirement of VCR-like functionality with
`
`respect to “user control over recording.” Id. While the Microsoft definition
`
`referenced “the user picking the programs to be recorded” (DI at 10 (citing Ex. 2004
`
`at 303)), the Television Dictionary (Ex. 2005), adopted by the Board, did not refer
`
`to such user control over recording and instead merely referred to the VCR-like
`
`functions of “pause, rewind, slow motion, and fast forward control” (DI at 11 (citing
`
`Ex. 2005 at 87)). These are VCR-like functions “with respect to earlier-recorded
`
`digitized content” as found by the Board and not functions pertaining to user control
`
`over recording, i.e., starting or stopping recording. And Girard, of course, plainly
`
`teaches such VCR-like functions for recorded content. Ex. 1003 at 7:5-10 (using
`
`“VCR” functions viewer can “fast forward, pause, replay, etc.”). Thus, Girard
`
`satisfies the Board’s actual construction, which requires VCR-like functions “with
`
`respect to earlier-recorded digitized content” and does not require Synchview’s
`
`misleading “user-control over recording” requirement.
`
`
`
`9
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`Second, the intrinsic evidence does not support Synchview’s narrowing. The
`
`plain claim language, of course, does not impose any such requirement of user
`
`control over recording. See, e.g., Claim 1. And even when the ’882 Patent describes
`
`examples of VCR-like functionality that its DVR can include, it describes “‘play,’
`
`‘stop,’ ‘fast forward,’ and ‘rewind’” but does not refer to any start recording or stop
`
`recording function. Ex. 1001 at 7:66-8:26. The ’882 Patent states, “Assuming
`
`selected channels (or all channels) are automatically recorded, what is needed is a
`
`way to access the recorded material for viewing” without requiring control over
`
`recording. Id. at 8:10-12. Indeed, the ’882 Patent seeks to overcome the drawback
`
`of VCRs that required a user to “mak[e] a conscious effort to record the channel in
`
`advance” and provides “automatic recording” so “[t]he user therefore is relieved of
`
`the responsibility of starting and stopping recording, allowing the user to view any
`
`video recorded during the window of time.” Id. at 1:47-49, 2:34-43.
`
`Third, even if the ’882 Patent may disclose embodiments where a user is
`
`allowed to deselect a channel from being automatically recorded, the specification
`
`does not impose this as a requirement for its DVR by definition or disavowal. And
`
`
`
`10
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`it would be improper to read such a requirement into the claims from embodiments
`
`disclosed in the specification.2
`
`The Board should reject Synchview’s false dichotomy between on-demand
`
`systems that record video digitally and “digital video recorders,” and the Board
`
`should also reject Synchview’s improper efforts to read in “user control” limitations,
`
`including those not required by the Board’s construction. Once those are stripped
`
`away, it is clear Girard achieves the same objectives of the ’882 Patent in allowing
`
`a user “be able to walk up to his television set and be able to view, on demand and
`
`without delay, everything that he missed during some previous period of time (for
`
`instance one day), regardless of channel” (Ex. 1001 at 1:51-53) and be “relieve[d]
`
`of the responsibility of starting and stopping recording.” Id. at 2:34-43.
`
`III. Girard Discloses Concurrent Recording and Playback of Programs In
`the Same Manner as Disclosed by the ’882 Patent
`
`Petitioner continues to contend that the Institution Decision’s construction of
`
`“DVR” improperly read in a requirement of “concurrent recording and playback”
`
`
`2 Being mindful of the Board’s instructions, which did not invite comment on its
`
`construction of “DVR,” Petitioner rests on its Rehearing Request (see Paper 12
`
`(“RR”) at 4-10) and merely notes Synchview’s uninvited arguments (PO Br. at 11)
`
`do not dispute there is evidence of change in meaning here given the application pre-
`
`dating the commercial-DVR era of the non-contemporaneous definitions. RR at 5.
`
`
`
`11
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`for the reasons set forth in its Rehearing Request but does not further argue that issue
`
`in light of the scope of the Board’s instructions. See RR at 6-8; Order at 3-5.
`
`Regardless, Girard nonetheless satisfies the Board’s construction because it
`
`teaches the same “catch-up viewing” concept as the ’882 Patent where a user can
`
`watch the beginning, recorded portion of a program (e.g., an episode of “Seinfeld”)
`
`while the live portion is still concurrently being recorded in real time; as a result, the
`
`user can “catch up” to the real-time feed. See RR at 10-11 (citing Pet. at 56 (quoting
`
`Girard at 7:11-23)); Ex. 1001 at 5:32-35, 9:8-27; Fig. 12. Synchview makes a nearly
`
`indecipherable argument regarding how Girard allegedly does not “continu[e] to
`
`record the incoming live program, while retrieving the earlier part of the program
`
`that was just recorded.” PO Br. at 13-15 (emphasis in original). To the extent
`
`Petitioner understands the argument, Synchview suggests Girard does not satisfy this
`
`requirement because its system must transition from the stored copy of the broadcast
`
`television program that was recorded at the start of the show to a separate real-time
`
`video stream of the live television broadcast—that is, it must transition from the
`
`stored video data stream of the earlier recorded segment of the same Seinfeld
`
`program to the separate real-time video data stream when the user “catches up.” Id.
`
`at 14-15 (citing Girard at 7:11-23). But that is precisely how this feature is
`
`accomplished in the ’882 patent. Figure 12 of the ’882 Patent demonstrates this
`
`concept by separately illustrating the live TV broadcast feed, the recorded TV
`
`
`
`12
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`broadcast, and then the way the recorded broadcast is presented to the user with
`
`commercials between the program segments (PS) being skipped:
`
`live
`stream
`
`recorded
`stream
`
`
`
`Ex. 1001 at Fig. 12 (showing separate TV broadcast and recorded copy of the TV
`
`broadcast). When the user time surfs back to the earlier recorded starting portion of
`
`the show at PS1, they are watching a “recorded copy” and after the user “catches
`
`up” such as by skipping commercials, the user is “no longer watching the recorded
`
`copy,” as described by the ’882 Patent. Id. at 9:16-27. This is precisely how such
`
`systems have to work—one cannot rewind a live TV broadcast feed—they must
`
`access a recorded copy to “time surf” into the past. And this is precisely how Girard
`
`works—by changing from “the real-time video data stream of the current ‘Seinfeld’
`
`program to the stored video data stream of the earlier segment of the same ‘Seinfeld’
`
`program.” Ex. 1003 at 7:11-23. Girard, therefore, teaches the Board’s construction’s
`
`requirement of “the ‘ability to time shift viewing the program as it is being recorded,’
`
`which is ‘accomplished by continuing to record the incoming live program, while
`
`retrieving the earlier part of the program that was just recorded.” DI at 16.
`
`

`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`IV. Synchview’s Unaddressed Arguments Are Also Incorrect
`
`While the Board also invited comment on Synchview’s argument that “the
`
`‘synchronization’ element” is not satisfied because the claims require allowing the
`
`programs themselves to be synchronized rather than merely information about the
`
`programs to be synchronized (Paper 14 at 4), Synchview does not appear to
`
`comment on it. In any event, Petitioner does not merely rely on Girard allowing
`
`only information about programs to be synchronized by presenting them on a guide,
`
`because Girard allows programs themselves to be synchronized by allowing them to
`
`be played back based on time slot. Pet. at 19-21. As Synchview acknowledges, “the
`
`claimed synchronization” can, for example, allow “a user watching one stored
`
`program at a given time [to] switch to a second program at a different time.” POPR
`
`at 22 (citing Ex. 1001 at 14:40-44; 5:47-53 (describing a user hopping from 6 p.m.
`
`yesterday to 5 p.m. today)). Girard similarly stores pointers to locations of stored
`
`programs (like the ’882 Patent, see Ex. 1001 at 3:5-7) in a SQL database along with
`
`scheduled viewing time, to allow a user to select and play back any of the past
`
`recorded programs at different times. Pet. at 19-20 (citing Ex. 1001 at 6:23-32, 5:38-
`
`41, 6:46-7:4; Figs. 2, 4)). For example, this storage of programs with time
`
`information allows a user to watch “Frasier” recorded at 9:00 p.m. on Oct. 11 or to
`
`switch to instead watch “Matlock” recorded at 8:00 p.m. on Oct. 13. Pet. at 20-21;
`
`Ex. 1001 at 3:55-64, 4:12-20, 5:47-56; 6:23-32, 6:46-74, Figs. 2, 4; Ex. 1007 at ¶ 43.
`
`
`
`14
`
`

`

`Case No. IPR2019-00470
`U.S. Patent 6,788,882
`This aligns precisely with the ’882 Patent’s synchronization of allowing “a user
`
`watching one stored program at a given time [to] switch to a second program at a
`
`different time.” See POPR at 22 (citing Ex. 1001 at 14:40-44; 5:47-53).
`
`Synchview also does not comment on its argument that the “channel viewer”
`
`element is not satisfied because Girard’s set-top box merely requests a previous
`
`program rather than actually retrieving it (Paper 14 at 4), as invited by the Board.
`
`Nonetheless, Girard’s set-top box clearly initiates the retrieval of the stored program
`
`because it is “[w]hen the viewer selects a past program” on the electronic guide
`
`running on the set-top box that the set-top box causes the pointer from the SQL
`
`database on the head end server to be provided to the continuous media server so it
`
`can retrieve the stored video data stream from the storage array and then “suppl[y]
`
`the video data stream to the set-top box.” Pet. at 25-26 (quoting Ex. 1003 at 2:28-
`
`35); see also id. at 3:8-10. The set-top box’s request is, therefore, of course, part of
`
`its retrieval of the stored program, and it is immaterial that the continuous media
`
`server participates in assisting the set-top box in retrieving the stored program so the
`
`set-top box can then display it to the user.
`
`V. Conclusion
`
`
`Petitioner respectfully requests the Board grant rehearing and institute this
`
`proceeding by granting one or more of the three (3) specific types of relief set forth
`
`in its Rehearing Request. RR at 2-3.
