20100272415 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM - In an information processor having a function to check out a content to a portable device such as a portable disc player, a content is recorded to a content data base under the control of a content management program, and it is set under the control of a display/operation instruction program whether the recorded content has to be checked out to the portable device. If a content is recorded in case it has been set that the content has to be checked out, the content having been recorded in the content data base is checked out to the portable device. | 10-28-2010 |
20100275127 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND ASSOCIATED METHOD OF CONTENT EXCHANGE - An information processor such as a personal computer is provided. A terminal is operably linked to the information processor to check out or to check in content to/from the terminal. A device driver detects that a portable device is connected to the information processor and when the device driver detects that the portable device is connected to the information processor, a start-up program reads contents-related data from the portable device and starts up a display/operation instruction program to provide a display corresponding to the data accessed from the terminal. | 10-28-2010 |
20110072057 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM - In an information processor which records many contents or has many contents already recorded therein, and can generate an arbitrary combination of the contents, a weight is computed for each of the contents based on either data stored in a history data file ( | 03-24-2011 |
20130144982 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND ASSOCIATED METHOD OF CONTENT EXCHANGE - A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is provided for storing computer program instructions that cause a computer to implement a method of exchanging content. The method includes connecting to an information processing apparatus, and transferring a ID of the computer to the information processing apparatus when a connection to the information processing apparatus is detected. The method further includes storing content and data related to the content transmitted from the information processing apparatus, transferring the data corresponding to the content stored in the computer, and reproducing the stored content. The content is automatically transferred to the computer when the computer is judged to be a predetermined device. | 06-06-2013 |
20140012946 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM - An apparatus and method allowing for high-quality data acquisition and playback processing based on content information transmitted from a server to a client are provided. Property information constituting meta-information corresponding to content-associated attribute information stores data-scheme information on original content held by the server, such as file format information, codec information representing an encoded-data scheme, and reformation information. In response to a content information acquisition request from the client, content information including the data-scheme information on the original content is generated and is transmitted to the client. This structure allows the client to output a content transmission request in which the optimum data scheme is determined based on the data scheme of the original content. Therefore, high-quality data acquisition and playback can be achieved. | 01-09-2014 |
20140079373 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM - In an information processor having a function to check out a content to a portable device such as a portable disc player, a content is recorded to a content data base under the control of a content management program, and it is set under the control of a display/operation instruction program whether the recorded content has to be checked out to the portable device. If a content is recorded in case it has been set that the content has to be checked out, the content having been recorded in the content data base is checked out to the portable device. | 03-20-2014 |
20140149420 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM FOR THE SAME - An information processing device includes: a storage unit; a first display control unit; and a demanding unit. The storage unit that stores attribute data representing specified attribute of contents and category data representing a category of the attribute correlated to each other. The first display control unit that provides controls for displaying information for a selected attribute and for displaying, in a categorized state, information for related attributes correlated to the same category as that of the attribute on a correlation display screen. The demanding unit that demands data search by referring to the correlated attribute selected corresponding to information selected from among those displayed on the correlation display screen to an information provision device. | 05-29-2014 |
20140195522 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, CONTENT TRANSFER SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAM - An information processing device is provided that performs content transfer with a content recording device on which is stored content that has content identification information identifying the content. The information processing device includes: an identification information acquisition portion that acquires, from the content recording device, the content identification information for the content recorded in the content recording device; a display control portion that groups a list of the content identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition portion for each of a content type acquired from the content identification information and displays the list; and a sort control portion that sorts, for each of the content types, the list of the content identification information displayed by the display control portion, based on the content attribute information acquired from the content identification information. | 07-10-2014 |
20140214849 | CORRELATING CATEGORIES OF ATTRIBUTES OF CONTENTS WITH CLASSIFICATION ELEMENTS - An information processing apparatus that performs processing for editing information on contents includes: an acquisition means for acquiring attribute data classification information in which a plurality of attribute data indicating predetermined attributes of contents is correlated with category data indicating categories for classifying the plurality of attributes; a selection means for selecting predetermined attribute data from the attribute data included in the attribute data classification information acquired by the acquisition means; and a correlation means for newly correlating the attribute data selected by the selection means with category data other than the category data, which is correlated in the attribute data classification information acquired by the acquisition means, in response to a user's instruction. | 07-31-2014 |
