Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for creating a MultiPhotoVideo or MusicPhotoVideo (MPV) file that enables minimization of resources and/or storage capacity required to use the MPV file in a multimedia application environment, and a storage medium having recorded thereon a computer readable program for performing the method. The method includes: generating profilebag elements based on multimedia content; generating unique identification information of assets included in the multimedia content; generating a last uniform resource locator (LastURL) based on universal resource identifiers (URIs) of the assets included in the multimedia content; and creating an MPV file corresponding to the multimedia content using the profilebag elements, the unique identification information of the assets, and the LastURL. Accordingly, the MPV file, which is available to multimedia reproducing devices having limited resources and/or storage capacity, can be provided.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for creating a LastURI (uniform resource identifier) of a content asset in order to share the content asset based on a multiphoto video (MPV) file in content recorders and/or reproducers having different file systems, and a recording medium storing program for executing the method are provided. The method creates one of an absolute LastURI and a relative LastURI as the LastURI of the content asset according to protocol type information, so that content recorders and/or reproducers using different file systems can easily find and share the content asset based on the MPV file.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving a partial font file are provided. A partial font file transmitter included in the partial font file transceiving apparatus includes a storage unit for storing at least one font file for rendering characters, and a partial font file producing unit for extracting character information from received broadcasting application contents and transforming the font file stored in the storage unit on the basis of the extracted character information into a partial font file. Accordingly, a partial font file corresponding to the character information included in the broadcasting application contents is produced and used in data broadcasting environment, so that relatively rapid data transmission is possible and the usability of a bandwidth increases.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for fixing up a last uniform resource locator (LastURL) representing the location of a content asset, and a computer readable recording medium storing a program to implement the method are provided. The LastURL fixup method includes managing location change information on location change of the content asset and fixing up a LastURL by referring to the location change information. According to the method and apparatus, a time for fixing up can be effectively reduced such that the speed of an application to response to a user can be enhanced and the processing power can be greatly saved.
