Abstract:
A method for screen mirroring and a source device thereof are provided. The source device includes a display unit configured to display a first screen, an input unit configured to receive a selection of a first area on the first screen, a controller, configured to, when a mirroring service is executed, process the first area independently of a second area that is an area except the first area in the first screen, and to mirror the first screen reflecting the processing on at least one sink device, and a communicator configured to transmit image data corresponding to the first screen.
Abstract:
A display apparatus for mirroring a screen image is provided. The display apparatus includes a display unit configured to display a predetermined screen image, an input unit configured to receive a predetermined command or data, a control unit configured to control the predetermined screen image to be transmitted to another display apparatus in order to make the other display apparatus mirror the predetermined screen image, and to reduce power consumption used to display the predetermined screen image when screen image mirroring is requested, and a communication unit configured to transmit the predetermined screen image to the other display apparatus. Also, the display apparatus reduces the power consumption caused when a mirroring service is used.
Abstract:
A technology for a client streaming content of a server is provided. The technology includes a service installed in the client that receives the content from the server instead of a media player, downloads the content in a cache having a larger capacity than a memory buffer of the media player, and then transfers data stored in the cache to the media player. Accordingly, even when the memory buffer is full, data reception from the server is not stopped, and thus power consumption of the server and the client may be reduced. Also, since a connection to the server is performed by the service instead of the media player, various socket interfaces may be supported without having to change the media player, and since data is stored in the cache, a buffering time may be reduced.
