Abstract
Disclosed are an image processing apparatus which easily plays contents, a server and a control method of the same. The image processing apparatus includes: a communication unit which communicates with a server; a signal processor; and a controller which determines whether a received content is processed by the signal processor and controls the communication unit to transmit the received content to the server and receive a converted content from the server if it is determined that the received content is not processed by the signal processor.
Claims20
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a communication unit which communicates with a server;
- a signal processor;
- and
- a controller which determines whether a content is processed by the signal processor and controls the communication unit to transmit the content to the server and receive a converted content from the server if it is determined that the content is not processed by the signal processor.
A server comprising:
- a communication unit which communicates with an image processing apparatus;
- and
- a controller which converts a format of a received content into a format to be processed by a signal processor of the image processing apparatus and controls the communication unit to transmit the converted content having the converted format to the image processing apparatus if the content is received from the image processing apparatus.
A control method of an image processing apparatus which communicates with a server, the control method comprising:
- determining whether a content is processed;
- transmitting the content to the server if it is determined that the content is not processed;
- and
- receiving a converted content having format of the content converted, from the server.
A control method of a server, the control method comprising:
- receiving a content from a image processing apparatus;
- converting a format of the received content into a format to be processed by a signal processor of the image processing apparatus;
- and
- transmitting the converted content having the converted format to the image processing apparatus.
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- an input unit which receives content;
- a control unit which determines whether a format of the received content is compatible with a signal processor;
- a communication unit which transmits the received content to a server to be converted into the format compatible with the signal processor, if it is determined that the format of the received content is not compatible with the signal processor.
