Abstract
A method for managing standby of a multimedia stream reader terminal, which is associated with a multimedia content restitution terminal via a communication link. The multimedia stream reader terminal detects a state of a link between the multimedia stream reader terminal and the restitution terminal on the communication link and goes into standby mode in the event of detection of an inactive state of the link.
Claims7
A method for managing standby of a multimedia stream reader terminal, which is associated with a multimedia content restitution terminal via a communication link, wherein the method is implemented by a standby management device associated with said multimedia stream reader terminal and comprises:
- detecting a state of a link between said multimedia stream reader terminal and said restitution terminal on said communication link, said detecting comprising requesting at least two successive interrogations of the state of said link by said multimedia stream reader terminal;
- and
- placing said multimedia stream reader terminal on standby in the event of detection of an inactive state of said link, the inactive state of said link being detected when said link is considered inactive in response to said at least two successive interrogations by said multimedia stream reader terminal.
A standby management device for managing standby of a multimedia stream reader terminal, which is associated with a multimedia content restitution terminal via a communication link, wherein the standby management device is associated with said multimedia stream reader terminal and comprises:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the at least one processor configure the device to:
- detect a state of a link between said multimedia stream reader terminal and said restitution terminal on said communication link, said detection comprising requesting at least two successive interrogations of the state of said link by said multimedia stream reader terminal;
- and
- place said multimedia stream reader terminal on standby in the event of detection of an inactive state of said link, the inactive state of said link being detected when said link is considered inactive in response to said at least two successive interrogations by said multimedia stream reader terminal.
A non-transitory computer readable data medium on which at least one series of program code instructions is stored which when executed by a processor of a standby management device configure the standby management device to perform a method of managing standby of a multimedia stream reader terminal, which is associated with a multimedia content restitution terminal via a communication link, wherein the method comprises:
- detecting a state of a link between said multimedia stream reader terminal and said restitution terminal on said communication link, said detecting comprising requesting at least two successive interrogations of the state of said link by said multimedia stream reader terminal;
- and
- placing said multimedia stream reader terminal on standby in the event of detection of an inactive state of said link, the inactive state of said link being detected when said link is considered inactive in response to said at least two successive interrogations by said multimedia stream reader terminal.
