In the apparatus, a network interface transmits and receives data to and from the at least one multimedia device. A display displays a screen. A controller controls to display at least one place selection menu indicating a place in which the at least one multimedia device is located on the screen, display, upon selection of the at least one place selection menu, at least one player selection menu indicating a player located in the place, on the screen, and display at least one source selection menu indicating a source capable of outputting contents to the player on the screen, upon selection of the at least one player selection menu.
Abstract:
Relating to a home network system, methods for configuring sessions in a home network system and setting up optimized paths of the configured sessions and apparatuses for supporting the same. According to an embodiment, the method for computing a routing path includes the steps of transmitting a Link Status Request message data requesting Link information from a first device to a second device, receiving a Link Notify message including Link information on the second device from the second device, updating a Link Status table based upon the Link information on the second device, computing Routing Path information from a source device to a sink device based upon the Link Status table, and computing information on a transmission port being used in the routing path based upon the Routing Path information.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for initiating a session in a home network system are disclosed. A method for initiating a session over a HDBaseT network includes transmitting, by an initiation entity, a session initiation request message for initiating the session to at least one session partner selected by the initiation entity over an Ethernet network, and receiving a session initiation response message acting as a response to the session partner over the Ethernet network. The session initiation request message includes a first source reference field for identifying the initiation entity and a second final target reference (FTR) field for identifying the at least one session partner.

Abstract:
Relating to a home network system and a home entertainment system, a method and an apparatus for transmitting packets in a home network system and a home entertainment system are disclosed. Additionally, a method for identifying devices to which the packets are to be transmitted and an apparatus for supporting the same are also disclosed herein. According to an embodiment, a method for transmitting a packet in a high definition base transmission (hereinafter referred to as HDBaseT) system includes the steps of receiving data from a source device in a transmission adaptor, converting the received data from the transmission adaptor to a downstream packet, in order to transmit the converted downstream packet to a receiving adaptor through an HDBaseT network, and transmitting the converted downstream packet to the receiving adaptor. At this point, the downstream packet may include a hierarchical identifier for identifying HDBaseT entities to which the downstream packet is to be transmitted.

Abstract:
A wireless network system includes a coordinator, a first device, and a second device. The coordinator transmits a first response to the first device to approve a first request message received from the first device; broadcast a first beacon, indicating that the first device is in a power saving mode, after transmitting the first response; transmit a second response to the second device to approve a second request message received from the second device; broadcast a second beacon, indicating that the first device needs to change a power management mode from the power saving mode to a normal mode, after transmitting the second response; transmit a third response to the first device to approve a third request message received from the first device; and broadcast a third beacon, indicating that the first device is in the normal mode, after transmitting the third response.
Abstract:
