System for Persisting Digital Multimedia Files onto a Digital Device

Abstract

A system and method for automatically persisting digital multimedia data from an external memory unit (flash disk or equivalent medium), or simply a multimedia chip, to a digital multimedia device upon connection. Digital multimedia data is stored onto the multimedia chip, the digital multimedia device has its own an internal disk drive, when the two devices are coupled, the digital multimedia data stored on on the external memory unit chip is decrypted, automatically persisted, and stored onto the digital multimedia device's internal disk drive. If the digital multimedia device fails to decrypt the multimedia chip, it enables the multimedia data to be played back on the digital multimedia device. The storage and distribution of the digital multimedia data from an external disk drive to a digital multimedia device creates a new means of distribution for digital multimedia data.
