| 20090123127 | SCHEDULED RECORDING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SETTING SCHEDULED RECORDING - An apparatus has a recording execution section for recording a target of presetting; a preset target designation section for designating a target of presetting; a content management section that stores contents recorded in the past and record settings of the recorded contents; a record setting candidate listing section that, when the degree of similarity between information about the target of presetting and information about recorded contents is equal to or larger than a threshold value, extracts from storage unit the record settings of the recorded contents as candidates for record settings by reference to the content management section; and a record setting designation section that displays the thus-extracted candidates for record settings and that designates record settings. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090292804 | CONTENT TRANSMISSION APPARATUS, CONTENT RECEPTION APPARATUS, AND CONTENT UPLOAD METHOD - According to one embodiment, a content transmission apparatus includes a data acquisition module configured to get a content item and metadata having a plurality of items for explaining details of the content, a notification module configured to notify an upload destination apparatus for the content of the metadata, a transmission module configured to encode the content and transmits the encoded content as a body of an upload request based on an HTTP POST request to an entry point created by a content reception apparatus on the basis of the metadata, a detection module configured to detect a change in metadata notified to the content reception apparatus relative to metadata newly got by the data acquisition module, and a posterior notification module configured to notify the content reception apparatus of posterior metadata containing at least a changed item in the metadata, when the detection module detects a change in the metadata. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20090292830 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTENT DATA PROVIDING METHOD - According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus is detachably connected to a host apparatus. The electronic apparatus includes a file management information generation module. The file management information generation module generates file management information based on which a host apparatus recognizes each of content data items as a file stored in a storage medium, the file management information being indicative of a plurality of starting storage locations on the storage medium corresponding to starting data blocks of the content data items, and a plurality of shared storage locations on the storage medium, which are shared by the content data items and correspond to second and following data blocks of each of the content data items. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20100302995 | ROUTER APPARATUS - A router apparatus is for establishing, in a home network system comprising a plurality of subnetworks including a first subnetwork and a second subnetwork, connection between the respective subnetworks. The router apparatus includes: a first network interface configured to be connected to a first communication device existing on the first subnetwork; a second network interface configured to be connected to a second communication device existing on the second subnetwork; a determination module configured to determine whether a function advertisement notification related to a router device is received from the first communication device; and a providing module configured to provide, to the second communication device, information included in the function advertisement notification received from the first communication device when the determination module determines that the function advertisement notification related to the router device is received. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110026535 | BRIDGE APPARATUS AND BRIDGE SYSTEM - A bridge apparatus is disclosed, the bridge apparatus being connected between a first network and a second network and achieving a communication between equipment connected to the first network and equipment connected to the second network. This apparatus accepts communication from the equipment over the first network to equipment disconnected from the second network, and then, preserves contents of the communication even in the case where the equipment over the second network has been disconnected from the second network for reasons such as electric power cut. In the case where the disconnected equipment has been connected to the second network again, this apparatus transmits the accepted contents of the communication to the reconnected equipment. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20110090406 | REPRODUCTION APPARATUS AND REPRODUCTION METHOD - According to one embodiment, when receiving a reproduction instruction, a reproduction apparatus performs image display based on second image information acquired through a network. When the reproduction apparatus receives a stop instruction while performing the image display based on the second image information, the reproduction apparatus performs the image display based on received first image information after performing the image display for a predetermined time based on third image information. | 04-21-2011 |
