摘要:
A broadcast program recording/reproducing device is provided that is capable of continuously reproducing a program recorded so as to be distributed between a plurality of devices. A reception level detection unit (105) detects the reception level of the received broadcast electric wave. When the reception level is equal to or lower than a predetermined reception level, a recording request transmission unit (106) generates a recording start request packet, and transmits it to a server (20). A management information write unit (107) writes management information into a terminal storage unit (104). A continuous reproduction control unit (108) determines whether the program is recorded so as to be distributed between storing means and an external device based on the management information. When the program is recorded so as to be distributed, the continuous reproduction control unit (108) obtains an appropriate part of the program from the terminal storage unit (104) and a server (20) based on the management information and continuously reproduces it, and when the program is not recorded so as to be distributed, the continuous reproduction control unit (108) obtains the program from the terminal storage unit (104) and reproduces it.
摘要:
Each apparatus transmits to a control server a notification signal indicative of a pending change or a change in an output state of the apparatus. The control server has stored therein a control rule which associates an output state of one apparatus with an output state to be taken by another apparatus when the one apparatus is in the output state. The control server acquires location-related information which is set in association with a location of each apparatus. Then, the control server receives a notification signal from any one of the apparatuses, and in response to the notification signal, determines an output state to be taken by an operation target apparatus which is other than an apparatus having transmitted the notification signal, based on the control rule and the location-related information. Further, the control server operates the operation target apparatus so as to transition into an output state determined by a determination section.
摘要:
A data transmitting apparatus for transmitting data to a plurality of data receiving apparatuses comprises acquiring means, organizing means, and transmitting means. The acquiring means acquires a plurality of sets of selection data, each set of which is targeted for one data receiving apparatus model. The organizing means compares the plurality of sets of selection data and extracts common data and unique data. The common data is a portion of one set of selection data that is also contained in one or more other sets of selection data, and the unique data is a remaining portion in each set of selection data left after excluding the common data. The transmitting means transmits the common data and the unique data together to the plurality of data receiving apparatuses.
