Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for media content sharing between home networks, and more particularly, to a system and method for sharing media content between home networks, A system and method for media content sharing between home networks to collect media content information and to receive specific media content in real time.
Description
The present invention relates to a system and method for sharing media content between home networks, and more particularly, to a system and method for media content sharing between home networks, and more particularly, Home media content sharing system and method for collecting media content information existing in an external home connected through the Internet in a home network and receiving specific media content in real time.
Home network technology refers to a technology that provides a future-oriented home environment in which home appliances in the home are connected to a wired / wireless network so that various high-quality home services can be provided without restriction of time and place.
Generally, in a home network environment, a service platform that can accommodate information appliances in a home network in order to provide services through various information appliances in the home is needed. With this service platform, the user can easily and conveniently use the high quality home service provided through various types of information appliances in the home.
Examples of the digital home service include home entertainment services such as Internet TV (IPTV) and video on demand (VoD), home data communication services such as contents, data sharing, VoIP and video telephony, , Remote meter reading, crime prevention, and disaster prevention services.
Among these, there is Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) as a representative organization providing standard guidelines for home AV media devices and networking, media transmission method, content sharing, and media format between devices.
In order to share and control information among different AV media devices in a digitalized home network environment, DLNA has developed a digital home network platform based on a UPnP AV structure, a media format, a content protection scheme, and a standard for interoperability between media devices present.
Currently, DLNA has released the "Home Networked Device Interoperability Guidelines v1.0" Recommendation in 2004 as a guideline standard. This Recommendation defines a set of core conditions and their implementation to enable PCs and various home appliances to share digital content with each other.
In addition, this Recommendation is a guideline that outlines much of the existing PC and Internet standards. It is a guideline that covers a wide range of topics such as wired and wireless Ethernet, Internet protocol, universal plug and play software, basic image, audio and video formats (JPEG, LPCM, MPEG-2) .
However, since this Recommendation focuses on the interoperability between network and media devices and media contents in a digital home, there is no standardization for the search and transmission of multimedia contents among various homes.
In addition, as described in this recommendation, when the DLNA device discovery message and the notification message are transmitted through the IP multicast method, it is impossible to ensure that the IP multicast service is normally performed in the Internet range. Therefore, There is a problem that it can not be retrieved / controlled remotely via the Internet.
In addition, DLNA obtains IP addresses of home media devices using DHCP or Auto-IP. If the home network is configured based on a private IP, when a specific DMS device performs media streaming using a private IP address, a media packet is not transmitted to an external home connected to the Internet.
Accordingly, in order to retrieve the services of the DLNA devices existing in the external home network connected through the Internet, and to use the media content information provided by the DLNA devices, there is a desperate need to acquire DLNA device and service information between the home sites in real time Is required.
Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem [8] The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above-mentioned problems and to meet the above-mentioned needs, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a home network including a DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) Network media content sharing system and method for collecting media content information existing in a home network and allowing specific media content to be received in real time.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention can be understood by the following description, and will be more clearly understood by the embodiments of the present invention. It will also be readily apparent that the objects and advantages of the invention may be realized and attained by means of the instrumentalities and combinations particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
The present invention relates to a media content sharing system between home networks, which comprises a home network based on DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), having a public IP address, a home IP network A home server information registration processor for registering / updating an IP address and access control information of the home server in an external location information management server and searching the IP address of the home server from the location information management server, A content sharing management unit for processing a received event message and providing a list of media contents and meta information collected in a home or an external home to which the user belongs and controlling reproduction of specific media content selected through the application program; According to the control of the content sharing management unit, A local controller for receiving the media content payload from the terminal in the home and delivering the media content payload to the external home through the external home, An external control unit for generating a corresponding request message upon receiving a requesting event and delivering the corresponding request message to the external home and transmitting message information received from the external home to the content sharing management unit as a result, A media forwarding channel is opened to transmit the media content from the home-use private IP-based premises to the public home based on the public IP, or the media content data received from the outside home to the home premises having the private IP Packet forwarding function And a media forwarding processor for performing the media forwarding process.
As described above, the present invention provides interworking functions for content collection and streaming between dynamic private IP-based home networks connected through the Internet, so that the media contents existing in the home network, There is an effect that reproduction can be performed using the reproduction apparatus.
Also, the present invention can share multi-media content resources existing in a plurality of homes, thereby saving the cost of content storage, which would be incurred by storing the same content in each home.
In addition, even when the IP address of the home server apparatus changes dynamically, the present invention has the effect of notifying the external location information management server in real time of the changed address, and enabling the home server apparatus to be easily located outside by using the host name .
