Abstract
Disclosed is a method for managing multimedia content, involving: obtaining a first set of content description metadata describing a first multimedia content broadcast in dynamic mode; and upon reading, in the first set of metadata, data redirecting to a section of a second set of content description metadata, reading, in the section of the second set of metadata, data relating to a time synchronization for accessing a second multimedia content broadcast in dynamic mode.
Claims22
A method for managing multimedia contents, comprising:
- obtaining a first set of content description metadata describing a first multimedia content delivered in dynamic mode;
- and
- upon reading, from the first set of metadata, redirect data for redirecting to a section of a second set of content description metadata, reading, from the section of the second set of metadata, data relative to a temporal synchronization of the access to a second multimedia content delivered in dynamic mode.
A device for playing multimedia content, comprising a processor and a memory that is operationally coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to implement a method for managing multimedia contents, the method comprising:
- obtaining a first set of content description metadata describing a first multimedia content delivered in dynamic mode;
- and
- upon reading, from the first set of metadata, redirect data for redirecting to a section of a second set of content description metadata, reading, from the section of the second set of metadata, data relative to a temporal synchronization of the access to a second multimedia content delivered in dynamic mode.

(canceled)
A non-transitory computer-readable medium on which is stored a computer-executable program, comprising a data set representing one or more programs, said one or more programs comprising instructions that, on execution of said one or more programs by a computer comprising a processing unit operationally coupled to memory means and to an input/output interface module, cause the computer to manage multimedia contents according to a method for managing multimedia contents, comprising:
- obtaining a first set of content description metadata describing a first multimedia content delivered in dynamic mode;
- and
- upon reading, from the first set of metadata, redirect data for redirecting to a section of a second set of content description metadata, reading, from the section of the second set of metadata, data relative to a temporal synchronization of the access to a second multimedia content delivered in dynamic mode.
