Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a reception unit, a detection unit, and a transmission unit. The reception unit receives a beacon signal transmitted from each of a plurality of first apparatuses. The detection unit detects an unconnected apparatus from the plurality of first apparatuses on the basis of the received beacon signal, the unconnected apparatus being not communicably connected to a second apparatus. The transmission unit transmits setting information for communicably connecting to the second apparatus to the detected unconnected apparatus.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a detection unit; a first acquisition unit; a second acquisition unit; and a generation unit. The detection unit detects a reproduction apparatus. The first acquisition unit acquires a reproduction mode of the detected reproduction apparatus. The second acquisition unit acquires history information, the history information including a reproduction apparatus selected in a past and a reproduction mode of the reproduction apparatus when the reproduction apparatus has been selected in the past. The generation unit generates an operation image, the operation image including detection information and the acquired history information, the detection information including the detected reproduction apparatus and a reproduction mode of the reproduction apparatus when the reproduction apparatus has been detected.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a detection unit, an acceptance unit, and an image control unit. The detection unit is capable of detecting whether or not each of a plurality of reproduction apparatuses constitutes a group related to reproduction of content, each of the plurality of reproduction apparatuses being connected to a network, each of the plurality of reproduction apparatuses being capable of reproducing the content. The acceptance unit accepts a user operation related to constitution of the group. The image control unit outputs a group state image on the basis of a detection result by the detection unit, the group state image representing a constitution state of the group, the group state image including an image of each of the plurality of reproduction apparatuses, and controls the group state image in response to the accepted user operation related to constitution of the group.
