Specific implementation method
Especially exemplified by a preferred embodiment, conjunction with figs. is described in detail as follows method and apparatus structure of the present invention below:
Please refer to Fig. 3, in the middle of the program of whole broadcast, is with the interface of microcontroller 310 (MicroController) as 100 of user and optical record mediums.On input medias such as general keyboard or mouse, the hot key (Hot Key) of multimedia special use is set, button on similar existing MP3 playing device or the Video playing device panel, allow the user assign instruction 320 by corresponding instruction button on this input media, according to this instruction 320, with microcontroller 310 as the interface, optical record medium in the CD drive 100 is carried out the action of document access, and the document is transferred to CPU (central processing unit) 330 (CPU) calculation process, play back through a broadcast unit 130 at last, wherein this broadcast unit includes associated multimedia chip 131 (as Audio chip or Video chip) and output unit 132 (as loudspeaker or screen), and the data after this CPU330 calculation process are play by suitable output unit through the conversion of this associated multimedia chip 131 again.
Please refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, flow process (Fig. 3) via above-mentioned explanation play multimedia document of the present invention is as can be seen compared with Fig. 2: accept user's instruction 320 as operation interface 120 with microcontroller 310, this CPU330 is then playing the part of the role of decoding circuit 110, at last decoded data is delivered to this broadcast unit 130 and is played back.But if want to accomplish to make things convenient for as existing MP3 playing device or video playing device in operation, then the control flow of this BIOS must be changed, and especially must provide on this BIOS of another section program what, with known control program behind the change power supply opening.
Please refer to Fig. 4:
Step 401: power supply opening;
Step 402: in advance judge whether mode opening power with simulation MP3 or Video playing device;
Step 403: if judge it is to open computer with power knob known on the host computer in the step 402, then be considered as general booting computer, this moment, this BIOS can carry out the program of normal power supply selftest (POST) unit, and entered operating system;
Step 404,405,406: relative, if judge in the step 402 is to open computer power to be located at the hot key that multimedia is relevant on keyboard or the mouse, then can be considered as the user wants to utilize computer as MP3 playing device or Video playing device, program on this BIOS just can determine not enter power supply selftest (POST) program at this moment, do not enter operating system, promptly locate half-open machine state, directly carry out the initial work of associated multimedia chip or chipset, for example: initialization is about the chipset (step 404) of memory function (Memory function), initialization associated multimedia chip (Audio chip or Video chip) (step 405) and initialization IDE controller (step 406);
Step 407: afterwards, order by ATAPI and to read all document names in CD or the VCD header (Title) in the CD drive;
Step 408: will deliver to this microcontroller 310 after the document name numbering;
Step 409: make CPU enter time clock and stop (Stop Clock) state;
Step 410: above all flow processs all are with control by program among the B10S, after these flow processs, the work of traditional B 10S just comes to an end, this moment, computer system can be waited for the instruction 320 of being sent here the user by microcontroller 310, abide by it again and carry out the decoding action, result is played back through broadcast unit A.
Those of ordinary skill in the art will be appreciated that, above embodiment is used for illustrating the present invention, and be not to be used as limitation of the invention, as long as in connotation scope of the present invention, all will drop in the scope of claims of the present invention variation, the modification of the above embodiment.
