Abstract:
A media processing method, device, and system where one or more media receiving clients that have a media processing capability of one or more media playback devices are separately constructed for multiple communications protocols, to-be-played media data that is sent by a media source device and that is to be played by a media receiving client specified by the media source device is received, and the to-be-played media data is sent to a media playback device that is corresponding to the specified media receiving client, for the media playback device to play. Therefore multiple media playback devices may be connected flexibly and simultaneously and a media playback device may be switched as desired during media playback.
Abstract:
A media playback processing and control method, apparatus, and system, where the processing method includes receiving, by a central server, a query request of a control device, returning a query response to the control device according to a resource information table, receiving a resource request of a selected display device selected by the control device, querying the resource information table, determining that a selected media resource corresponding to information about a selected storage path is stored on a first media server (MS), and determining a second MS with a conversion capability to convert a media format of the selected media resource into a media format supported by a playback capability of the selected display device in order to enable the selected display device to play a media resource converted by the second MS from the selected media resource.
Abstract:
A media playback method, so as to implement seamless playback of media information, is presented. The media playback method includes: determining a first location relationship between a target object and a first terminal; when the first location relationship meets a first preset condition, determining a second location relationship between a second terminal and the target object; and when the second location relationship meets a second preset condition, sending media information currently played on the first terminal to the second terminal, to enable the second terminal to play the media information. By using the foregoing technical solution, seamless playback of media information among multiple screens is implemented, thereby providing personalized data services and applications to a target object, and improving efficiency of acquiring media information by a target object.
Abstract:
A method for processing a media resource playlist in a local area network, where the local area network includes a media server and a media renderer, includes: updating a stored playlist and a stored playlist element table when determining that a state of the media server changes; and sending the updated playlist to the media renderer. In addition, a playlist processing apparatus and a communication system are provided correspondingly.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and system are disclosed for software management, relating to the technical field of communications, and allowing software installed on a UPnP device by a service provider to be managed only by that service provider. The method comprises: receiving a software installation command sent by a first control device, installing software according to the software installation command and storing a first authentication information required during management of the software; receiving a software management command sent by a second control device, and acquiring a second authentication information corresponding to the software management command, which command is used in managing the software; when the second authentication information is consistent with the first authentication information, executing the software management command.
Abstract:
A media resource access control method and device, where the method includes: receiving, by a universal plug and play (UPnP) media server, a media resource identifier sent by a control point and acquiring preset verification information corresponding to the media resource identifier; receiving a media resource acquisition request sent by a UPnP media player, where the media resource acquisition request contains to-be-verified information; and verifying the to-be-verified information by using the preset verification information, and if the verification is passed, sending a media resource corresponding to the media resource identifier to the UPnP media player.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for transmitting media resources. The method includes: obtaining related information of media resources on a media server (101); sending an instruction message including the related information of the media resources to a telephony server, wherein the instruction message instructs the telephony server to perform session negotiation with a communication peer according to the related information of the media resources to establish a first multimedia session (102); obtaining information of a communication interface used by the telephony server to receive the media resources (103); sending an instruction message according to the information of the communication interface, wherein the instruction message instructs the media server to send the media resources to the telephony server, so that the telephony server transmits the media resources to the communication peer through the first multimedia session (104). The present invention is applicable to media resource transmission in a multimedia session.
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.
