摘要:
A method and apparatus for managing contents distributed on a home network are provided. The distributed content management apparatus (100) includes: a content information database processor (110) which aggregates information regarding contents stored in at least one content reproducing apparatus and creates or updates an integrated content information database; and a synchronization processor (120) which performs content synchronization to synchronize the information regarding the contents stored in the content reproducing apparatus with contents defined in a synchronization list set by a user, using the integrated content information database. The apparatus further includes a content change information receiver (112) which receives changed contents from the content reproducing apparatus if contents information stored in a content reproducing apparatus changes; and a content information database updating unit (115) which updates the integrated content information database to reflect the changed contents.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for synchronizing multimedia content with a client device (200) which supports a multi-server environment are provided. The server (100) includes a synchronization policy management unit (120) which acquires a synchronization policy; a synchronization information collector (150) which collects log information of a previously performed synchronization and of a change occurring after the previously performed synchronization; a synchronization processor (140) which performs synchronization in accordance with the collected log information; a change log management unit (160) which stores a result of the synchronization; an interface unit (114) which transmits the log information; and a storage unit which stores the multimedia content and the meta data of the multimedia content. The method includes acquiring a synchronization policy; collecting log information of a previous synchronization; performing synchronization with the client (200) based on the collected log information; storing a result of the synchronization in the log information.
