Claims26
A method for rendering a media file on a client device, comprising:
- transparently facilitating a media rendering application in accessing one or more media services on a server remotely disposed away from, but communicatively coupled to the client device, to assist in rendering the media file to the client device;
- and
- the media services assisting the media rendering application in rendering the media file from the server to the client device.
An electronic device for rendering a media file on a client device remotely disposed away from, but coupled to the electronic device, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a media service access module adapted to be operated by the processor to transparently facilitate a media rendering application in using one or more media services to assist in rendering the media file from the electronic device to the client device.
A system comprising:
- a communication interface to couple the system to a client device;
- a memory;
- a disk drive coupled to bus having stored therein computer executable instructions designed to enable the system to:
- transparently facilitate a media rendering application in using one or more media services to assist in rendering a media file for the client device;
- and
- a processor coupled to the communication interface, the memory, and the disk storage.
