摘要:
There is provided a preview distribution technique capable of realizing a flexible preview distribution between a distribution side and a user side. According to the technique, preview meta data describing reference destination information to the preview-constituting data of a plurality of types constituting the content preview is transmitted to a reception terminal. The reception terminal acquires the preview-constituting data by using the reference destination information described in the preview meta data and generates/reproduces the preview. Thus, when modifying the preview, the reception terminal can reproduce the preview after the modification, by acquiring only the data constituting the preview of the modified part, thereby easily modifying the data constituting the preview. That is, it is possible to perform a flexible preview distribution.

摘要:
The present invention is intended to realize a screen configuration according to a propagation environment and display capability by causing a server to transmit a plurality of pieces of screen configuration information describing a spatial arrangement of contents to a reception terminal and select, when the reception terminal receives a plurality of pieces of screen configuration information, screen configuration information and display the contents according to the propagation environment of the reception terminal and conditions such as display capability.
摘要:
A media receiving apparatus capable of preventing media from being positioned in an invalid display area or a program from being temporarily stopped, even if the vertical/horizontal ratio of the resolution of the display section is switched while a broadcast or streaming program is being displayed. In this apparatus there are a plurality of display sections D1 and D2 with different resolutions, and a display directive section (303) directs a display section to be set as active in accordance with the mode of use of the user. A layout information selection section (304) selects a layout corresponding to the resolution of the display section indicated by the display directive section (303) from layout information that includes layouts corresponding to display sections D1 and D2 distributed from a media distribution apparatus, and in accordance with the selected layout a media display control section (306) selects media distributed from the media distribution apparatus, performs conversion processing comprising enlargement or reduction, and displays media on the display section designated by the display directive section (303).
摘要:
A content playback method that is capable of preventing diversion and outflow of users' personal information, reliably protecting privacy and detecting and playing back content in accordance with users' needs. With this method, data including content is delivered from a data transmission server (10) of a content providing system (S2). This data is received at content playback terminals (41)-(43). The content playback terminals (41)-(43) store history information of detecting content, extract search information according to the users search characteristics from the history information (S7), preferentially select new content corresponding to the search information and plays back the new content (S9).
摘要:
An apparatus includes a storage section that stores stored content, a content receiving section that receives content, a received content storage section that stores received content, and a playback section that plays back the stored content or the received content. A playback control section controls the playback section to switch between playing back the stored content and playing back the received content. A content list management section manages a content list that stores combinations of an address of content relating to a location within a predetermined area, and the location. A location detection section detects current location information and a received content determination section determines content that should be received from the content list based on the current location information. The content receiving section receives content relating to a current location determined by the received content determination section and the playback control section controls the playback section to switch between playing back the received content and playing back the stored content.
摘要:
In the present invention, a content receiving section 107 receives content from a content server 101 by means of broadcasting or communication, and playback by a playback section 109 is switched by a playback control section 108 between stored content stored in a storage section 103 and content received by content receiving section 107 based on at least one of stored content playback conditions and reception conditions of content received by means of broadcasting or communication.
摘要:
In the present invention, content is comprised of a plurality of items of data, and a transmission cycle and others of data composing the content are varied corresponding to the importance and/or necessity and purpose of the data. In this way, for example, it is possible to set a shorter transmission cycle on high-necessity data than the transmission cycle of the low-necessity data, and to set a shorter transmission cycle on information such as summary information requiring fast viewing than the transmission cycle of detailed information.
摘要:
A distance between positional information added to contents and a current position detected in an information receiving terminal is calculated, and based on the calculated distance, a method for outputting the contents is controlled. Thus, since the method for outputting the contents can be changed by a positional relationship between the contents and the information receiving terminal, distance relationship between the current position and the contents can be clearly displayed so that users can easily select the contents.
摘要:
A meta data set correlated with position information is acquired from a server via a communication interface unit (202) or a broadcast interface unit (201). A current position information acquisition unit (208) acquires the current position information and a content processing unit (203) outputs a content list matched with the search condition including the current position information from the meta data set. When a display list is generated according to the content list, a content display control unit (204) compares the content list to the display list. When they coincide, the meta data generates a display list without changing the display method and displays the search result on a browser unit (205) according to the display list generated by the content display control unit (204).
