Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a home network technology based on universal plug and play (UPnP), and more particularly, to a method and an apparatus for controlling media sharing, and an enhanced media server.
Background
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a set of network protocols promoted by the "Universal Plug and Play Forum" (UPnP Forum). The goal of this protocol is to enable seamless connectivity between various devices in the home network (data sharing, communication and entertainment) and the corporate network, and to simplify the implementation of the associated networks.
Sharing of media content among different devices is enabled based on the UPnP media service (UPnP AV) architecture. The UPnP AV architecture includes a Media Server (Media Server), a Media Renderer (Media Renderer), and a Control Point (CP). The Media Renderer is responsible for rendering the Media content, and the CP is responsible for controlling interaction, and the Media Renderer negotiates a Media format and a Media transmission mode through interaction to implement rendering of the Media content such as images, audios and videos on the Media server on the Media rendering device.
In audio and video media applications, a category of "associated media" is often encountered, and multimedia contents such as photos, music, videos and the like can be independent media elements, but they can also form "associated media" (Collection) with associated relationships such as album slides, playlists, television episodes and the like; the media elements forming the associated media form a combination with logical significance, the media have initial, end, front and back and other association relations, and the associated media can be used as a whole to perform operations such as sequential continuous playing, forward, backward, pause playing, resume playing and the like. The UPnP AV architecture specifies a sharing scheme for individual media, and also complements the way of representing "associated media" with containers (containers) and in-Container elements; however, organizations such as UPnP and DLNA (digital living network alliance) lack specific and clear specifications for specific file formats of related media such as playlists, protocol interactions by UPnP and DLNA, and the like. In practical implementations, Media renderers (mediarenderers) often do not support specific container formats. That is, in the current practical application, because the Media Renderer (Media Renderer) does not support the associated Media enough, the associated Media is difficult to share from the Media server to the Media Renderer for rendering, and the interoperability of the associated Media is not well solved.
