20080243869 | INTER-HOME SHARING APPARATUS AND METHOD USING HOME NETWORK DEVICE - An inter-home content sharing apparatus and method are provided. The inter-home content sharing apparatus includes a home network protocol stack which communicates with the home network devices according to a home network protocol; a remote storage controller which receives a request for sharing content from the home network devices through the home network protocol, connects to a remote storage to upload the content, and controls the remote storage to extract metadata of the content; and a message controller which controls transception of notification messages including sharing information on the uploaded content. | 10-02-2008 |
20080256254 | COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS USING HYPERTEXT TRANSFER PROTOCOL - A communication method for implementing a real-time streaming using hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) in a network is provided. Chunked encoding of HTTP is applied so that information can be exchanged between a server and a client while an HTTP request is being progressed. Therefore, bidirectional communication between the client and the server using HTTP is possible without modifying an existing HTTP protocol, and real-time transmission can be implemented. | 10-16-2008 |
20090019006 | APPARATUS, METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING CONTENT OF MEDIA SERVER - Provided are an apparatus, a method and a system for providing content in a media server, and, more particularly, an apparatus, a method and a system for providing content in a media server, in which content in the media server can be expressed as RSS data which can allow users to access the content through an RSS reader. The apparatus includes an RSS-converting unit which converts content information collected through a browse action or a search action into RSS data, and a web service unit which provides RSS data generated by the RSS-converting unit to external devices. | 01-15-2009 |
20090180023 | APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING MOVING IMAGE ANCILLARY INFORMATION BASED ON A SCRIPT AND METHOD THEREOF - A method and apparatus for processing moving image ancillary information, based on a script, is provided. The method includes receiving a user command for inputting ancillary information, where the ancillary information includes a script for a moving image being played. The method further includes storing the ancillary information input by a user, searching for and extracting the stored ancillary information during playback of the moving image, and outputting the extracted ancillary information to an image display screen using the script. | 07-16-2009 |
20110060798 | TERMINAL, SEED SERVER, AND TRACKER SERVER FOR REDUCING DELAY IN STREAMING SERVICE - A P2P network system for reducing streaming delay in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network is provided. The P2P network system may include at least one peer, a seed server, and a tracker server that manages the network. The seed server provides content to the at least one peer. The peer, the seed server, and the tracker server operate such that the P2P network is managed based on the distance of each peer from the seed server. | 03-10-2011 |
20110258270 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING PARTNERSHIP WITH A PEER-TO-PEER (P2P) SERVICE BASED ON GOSSIP - Provided is gossip-based peer-to-peer service apparatus and a method for quickly establishing a partnership. A first node that desires to join a service receives partial view information of a second node from the second view that is participating in the service. In response to receiving the partial view information from the second node, the first node extracts one or more candidate nodes to establish a partnership with, and engages the candidate nodes in a temporal partnership. | 10-20-2011 |
20120102157 | COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS USING HYPERTEXT TRANSFER PROTOCOL - A communication method for implementing a real-time streaming using hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) in a network is provided. Chunked encoding of HTTP is applied so that information can be exchanged between a server and a client while an HTTP request is being progressed. Therefore, bidirectional communication between the client and the server using HTTP is possible without modifying an existing HTTP protocol, and real-time transmission can be implemented. | 04-26-2012 |
20120185574 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SWITCHING MEDIA RENDERERS DURING STREAMING PLAYBACK OF CONTENT - A method and a device for switching a media renderer to another media renderer while a client performs streaming playback of content of a server are provided. Accordingly, a first client that performs streaming playback of the content transmits playback environment information and a URL of the content to the second client, and the second client transmits the received information and information about features of the second client to the server and requests the corresponding content which has the optimized format for the second client from the server. Therefore, a user can continue to watch the media content through a new media renderer in existing playback environment setting without additional manipulation. | 07-19-2012 |
