Abstract:
A control device and a computer program product configured to complete the functions of determining that a task needs to be executed, where the task is a task to distribute the media content to a media play apparatus, acquiring device information of the multiple media distribution devices, selecting an available media distribution device from the multiple media distribution devices according to the device information, where the available media distribution device may be configured to process the media content such that the media content has an adaptive media stream format suitable for the media play device, and assigning, when there are multiple available media distribution devices, at least one segment of the media content to each of the available media distribution devices such that the multiple available media distribution devices jointly process the media content.
Abstract:
The present invention applies to the field of multimedia communication technologies, and provides a method for switching between media play devices, and a device. The method includes: acquiring and displaying a media play device list on a home area network, and determining a to-be-switched-to media play device according to a user operation; sending a request message that carries a browsing history of a media content page of a media server and device capability information of the to-be-switched-to media play device to a remote user interface server RUI Server; receiving a uniform resource identifier URI of a user interface UI sent by the RUI Server; and sending the URI to the to-be-switched-to media play device, so that the to-be-switched-to media play device displays the UI that includes the browsing history.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a media playback method, where a control point controls a media playback device to play a first media, where the control point acquires a resolution supported by the media playback device; acquires, according to the resolution supported by the media playback device, address information of the first media to be sent to the media playback device; and sends the address information of the first media to the media playback device, so that the media playback device plays the first media according to the address information of the first media. Embodiments of the present invention are advantageous because the control point can select, according to the resolution supported by the media playback device, a media resource of a corresponding resolution, and push the media resource of the corresponding resolution to the media playback device.
Abstract:
A device selection method and apparatus is disclosed, where the method includes: responding, by a control device, to a selection operation of a user, and determining a pointing direction of the control device and/or a deflection angle of the control device according to sensing data collected by a sensor of the control device; and determining, according to the pointing direction of the control device and/or the deflection angle of the control device, a home network device selected by the user, so that a correctness rate of home network device selection is increased effectively.
Abstract:
A method for identifying a device comprising generating, by a control device, an identification identifier of a multimedia device according to device description information of the multimedia device, sending the identification identifier to the multimedia device, so that the multimedia device displays the identification identifier, acquiring, by the control device, the identification identifier displayed by the multimedia device and an appearance image of the multimedia device, and acquiring the device description information according to the identification identifier displayed by the multimedia device, and associating, by the control device, the device description information with the appearance image of the multimedia device, so that a user equipment identifies the multimedia device according to the appearance image.
