Abstract
A sink device, a source device, a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system, and a method for controlling the sink device are described. A sink device includes: an event setting unit that sets a control event configured to control media data supplied from a remote source device with which the sink device communicates through a WLAN; a packet control unit that forms a control packet configured to transmit the control event to the source device; a communication unit that transmits the control packet to the source device and receives, from the source device, media that reflects the control event; and a media output unit that outputs the media data that reflects the control event.
Claims29
A sink device, comprising:
- an event setting unit configured to set a control event configured to control media data supplied from a remote source device with which the sink device communicates through a network;
- a packet control unit configured to form a control packet that controls media data from the source device;
- a communication unit configured to transmit the control packet to the source device and to receive, from the source device, media data that reflects the control event;
- and
- a media output unit configured to output the media data that reflects the control event.
A method utilizing a processor, the method comprising:
- setting a control event to control media data supplied from a remote source device with which a sink device communicates through a network;
- forming a control packet that controls media data from the source device;
- transmitting the control packet to the source device;
- receiving, from the source device, media data that reflects the control event;
- and
- outputting, with the processor, the media data that reflects the control event.
A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system, comprising:
- a source device configured to encode media data;
- and
- a sink device, comprising:
- an event setting unit configured to set a control event configured to control media data supplied from a remote source device with which the sink device communicates through a wireless network,
- a packet control unit configured to form a control packet that controls media data from the source device,
- a communication unit configured to transmit the control packet to the source device and to receive, from the source device, media data that reflects the control event, and
- a media output unit configured to output the media data that reflects the control event.
A source device, comprising:
- a communication unit configured to receive a control packet from a remote sink device through a network;
- an event control unit configured to set a control event configured to control media data supplied to the remote sink device;
- and
- a media output unit configured to output the media data that reflects the control event,
- wherein the communication unit is further configured to transmit the media data that reflects the control event to the remote sink device.
