Patent number: 8452802Abstract: A distributed audio visual (AV) system including a plurality of media servers, a media renderer, and a control point which are connected to each other via a peer-to-peer network is provided. Each of the media servers includes a content directory management unit (CDMU) and a query content information (QCI) module, wherein the CDMU includes a synchronizer module and a content information maintainer (CIM) module. The synchronizer module synchronizes content information of AV contents stored in all the media servers. The CIM module records the content information and establishes an integrated content directory list according to the content information. The QCI module queries the content information. The control point obtains the integrated content directory list from one of the media servers and queries the content information related to all the AV contents, so as to control the media renderer to play the AV contents.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2008Date of Patent: May 28, 2013Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Chi-Chun Chen, Jian-Hong Liu, Yi-Chang Zhuang

Patent number: 7720882Abstract: A data file management and search method based on file attributes is disclosed. At least one data file, externally imported or generated by a user, is retrieved. Attributes of the data file are edited, a virtual catalog corresponding to the data file is generated, and a catalog tree is built according to the data file and the virtual catalog. The virtual catalog and the data file are displayed by a user interface. A search operation is performed based on a search command to locate at least one required virtual catalog or data file among multiple data files and virtual catalogs. A basic operation is implemented on the located virtual catalog or data file.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2007Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Jian-Hong Liu, Yi-Chang Zhuang, Lian-Jou Tsai
