Methods, computer-readable media, and data structures for building an authoritative database of digital audio identifier elements from digital media accessed by clients. The digital media including one or more media items, such as tracks on a CD. The methods, computer-readable media, and data structures further identifying metadata associated with a media item accessed by a client utilizing the authoritative database of digital audio identifier elements.

Methods, computer-readable media, and systems for providing a user with media item ratings based upon media item ratings of a community of related users. The user sends information about herself to the system. The system places the user in a community of users based upon the user information and provides media item ratings to members of the community based upon media item ratings by other community members.

Collecting and augmenting metadata associated with media content stored on a plurality of devices for display to a user. The collected metadata remains available (e.g., visible) to a user after the device storing the corresponding media content is offline, disconnected, or otherwise unavailable. In particular, the invention permits metadata associated with media content stored on one or more devices (e.g., consumer electronic devices) to be enumerated, obtained, and promoted into another device (e.g., a personal computer) such that the metadata may be treated as if the media content is stored on the other device (e.g., the personal computer). In particular, the invention automatically detects an event generated in response to an action by a first device storing a media file. In response to the detected event, the invention matches and obtains metadata for the media content stored in the media file. A user organizes or otherwise manipulates the obtained metadata, for example, via a media player.

An arrangement is provided in which a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) device exposes a service for mapping a UPnP discovered content item to a server message block (SMB) location. The service is arranged to expose an SMB share path to a user at a remote client using a UPnP protocol. The user is then enabled with access to the share via SMB to gain file access, write changes or exercise file level control of the discovered content item. Authentication is optionally utilized to verify that the user is authorized to receive the SMB share location from the service or to verify that the user is authorized to access the SMB share.

摘要:
The present invention provides a novel file management approach. The systems and methods comprise a schema-based file management technique that can be integrated within an operating system to provide application developers an efficient and powerful develop utility to build applications. In addition, the system and methods provide for applications that can be employed uniformly across disparate data (e.g., audio and video data) within the operating environment. The schema can include a base schema that is related to known types of data and derived schema that extend the base schema with respect to one or more characteristics of the data. The schema can be employed to generate APIs that can be employed by users and/or applications to exchange information with a file system. In addition, the systems and methods can include configurable intelligence that can be utilized perform actions and/or make decisions, which can automate processes and/or facilitate data storage and/or management.
