摘要:
Transfer control means (41) transfers part of held digital contents in an internal storage device (51) to a network storage device (57). List information presentation means (42) returns list information which makes the digital contents stored in the internal storage device (51) and the network storage device (57) as the held digital contents in response to a list presentation request for the held digital contents. Upon reception of a data transmission request, search means (43) searches where the held digital contents are currently stored. If the result of the search shows the network storage device (57), content data transmission processing means (44) allows the stream-delivery of the data from the network storage device (57) to a network player (56). There is provided a server device for media (40) capable of maintaining the convenience of playback in a network player, while properly dealing with the large total size of held digital contents.
摘要:
A media server device (40) can reproduce each of music compositions held in a built-in storage device (45). Moreover, the media server device (40), while being connected, can stream-distribute a digital content to a network player (51) so as to be reproduced in the network player (51). Reproduced digital content detection means (41) detects a music composition being reproduced. Stream-distribution means (42) stream-distributes data for reproducing the currently reproduced music composition as a notification music composition in the network player (51). Thus, it is possible to provide a media server device, a media server control method, and a program capable of enabling a particular partner to understand the reproduced digital content effectively and in the reproduction format.
