摘要： A function managing apparatus allows a user to avoid a fault likely to occur in a user terminal before a new function is installed on the user terminal. A function managing apparatus for communicating with a user terminal is provided. Specifically, the function managing apparatus includes a receiving unit, predicting unit, and alerting unit. The receiving unit receives from the user terminal the new function ID identifying the new function to be installed on the user terminal, and the installed function IDs identifying one or more functions previously installed on the user terminal. The predicting unit specifies the new function and one or more installed functions based on the new function ID and installed function IDs received by the receiving unit, and predicts the result when the new function is installed on the user terminal. The alerting unit notifies the user terminal of the prediction result of the predicting unit.

摘要： A content reproducing apparatus according to the present invention is such that the content reproducing apparatus judges whether or not reproducing data of a replay segment pointed out by the skip instruction is skippable when a skip instruction from a user is accepted while a content is being reproduced. When a result of judgment is negative to the skip instruction, an alternative data is reproduced in place of data of the replay segment hat has been instructed to be skipped. When the reproducing of the alternative data is completed, so that data of the replay segment successive to the replay segment pointed out by the skip instruction is executed.

摘要： A server stores a media content and an execution program for processing the media content, and determines a usage rule for the media content to be transmitted to a terminal. The server distributes the usage rule, the media content, and the execution program to the terminal. The terminal stores the distributed usage rule, media content, and execution program. The terminal executes the stored execution program and processes the stored media content within the bounds of the usage rule as stored. The server may perform a billing process in accordance with the determined usage rule, or select and distribute a media content or an execution program in accordance with the processing ability of the terminal or a state of communications. Moreover, the server may distribute, in addition to the execution program, middleware for constructing an operating environment for the execution program.

摘要： To provide a terminal device capable of independently determining an occurrence of an event, and autonomously processing a service in response to the event. An event detection section (205) detects a predetermined event. A service retrieving section (206) retrieves a service corresponded to the detected event. A service execution section (207) determines an application program related to the retrieved service, and another terminal device which cooperatively executes the application program. Then, the service execution section (207) instructs an application management section (203) and an application execution section (204) of the own terminal device and the other terminal device to obtain and execute the program.

摘要： A player (content searching device) compares an acquired piece primary metadata (with running number 100) to a corresponding piece of primary metadata having number 100 in a memory unit. When no matching occurs, primary metadata with running number 99 is used. Then, this acquired primary metadata is compared to the piece of primary metadata having number 100 in the memory unit. When matching occurs, the player acquires content corresponding to running number 99 from a server and begins playback.

摘要： A recording device, which receives record instructions directly from a user, enables the user to give a variety of record instructions without being restricted by the recording capability of the recording device. The recording device judges whether a processing content specified in a record instruction received from the user is executable internally (step S300), and if judged in the negative, selects an external device capable of executing the record instruction, based pre-collected information relating to the recording capability of one or more external devices (step S302) and forwards the record instruction to the selected device (step S303).

摘要： A video processing apparatus acquires audio-visual environment information that indicates an audio-visual environment of a viewer that views video. The audio-visual environment information includes information of a display size of the video that is being viewed, information of brightness around a display apparatus that displays the video, and information of a distance between the viewer and the display apparatus. The video processing apparatus corrects, depending on information indicated by the audio-visual environment information, a basic reduction amount to reduce a quantity of motion of the video that is being played back, and processes the video with use of a corrected reduction amount. In the case where the display size is large, in the case where it is dark around, or in the case where the distance from the viewer to the display apparatus is short, the reduction amount to reduce a motion is set to be large.
