Abstract
The present invention discloses a method of editing a multi-media playing schedule for a digital photo frame, a system and a computer readable storage medium thereof, which are characterized in that users can edit a multi-media playing schedule on the data processing apparatus when the digital photo frame is electrically connected to the data processing apparatus, and after editing of the multi-media playing schedule is finished, the multi-media playing schedule is transmitted to the digital photo frame and stored in the digital photo frame. Therefore, the problem of being unable to edit complicated multi-media playing schedules due to simple operation interface of digital photo frames can be solved.
Claims18
A method of editing a multi-media playing schedule for a digital photo frame, comprising the steps of:
- connecting the digital photo frame to a data processing apparatus having an input unit;
- activating a schedule editing unit on the data processing apparatus;
- using the input unit of the data processing apparatus to operate the schedule editing unit to edit a multi-media playing schedule comprising a plurality of multi-media files;
- and
- transmitting the multi-media playing schedule to the digital photo frame and storing the multi-media playing schedule in the digital photo frame;
- wherein, when a memory of the digital photo frame is insufficient to store all of the plurality of multi-media files, a file managing unit stores some of the plurality of multi-media files played in a preset duration;
- while the digital photo frame is electrically connected to the data processing apparatus again, the file managing unit deletes the multi-media files having been played and not be played anymore within the preset duration and then downloads the some of the plurality of multi-media files not stored in the digital photo frame and going to play within the preset duration from the data processing apparatus.
A multi-media playing schedule editing system for a digital photo frame, comprising:
- a data processing apparatus electrically connected to the digital photo frame;
- a schedule editing unit installed on the data processing apparatus for editing a multi-media playing schedule comprising a plurality of multi-medial files;
- an input unit installed on the data processing apparatus for operating the schedule editing unit;
- and
- a file managing unit installed in the data processing apparatus;
- wherein, the data processor transmits the multi-media playing schedule to the digital photo frame, and the multi-media playing schedule is stored in digital photo frame after the editing of the multi-media playing schedule is finished;
- when a memory of the digital photo frame is insufficient to store all of the plurality of multi-media files, the file managing unit stores some of the plurality of multi-media files played in a preset duration;
- while the digital photo frame is electrically connected to the data processing apparatus again, the file managing unit deletes the multi-media files having been played and not be played anymore within the preset duration and then downloads the some of the plurality of multi-media files not stored in the digital photo frame and going to play within the preset duration from the data processing apparatus.
A computer readable storage medium storing a computer program which is executed for making the computer perform a method of editing a multi-media playing schedule applied to the digital photo frame, and the computer being electrically connected to the digital photo frame, the method of editing the multi-media playing schedule comprising the following steps of:
- providing a multi-media playing schedule editing interface;
- inputting the playing data of multi-media files to be played on the digital photo frame through the multi-media playing schedule editing interface;
- generating a multi-media playing schedule according to the data inputted on the multi-media playing schedule editing interface;
- and
- transmitting the multi-media playing schedule to the digital photo frame and storing the multi-media playing schedule in the digital photo frame;
- wherein, when a memory of the digital photo frame is insufficient to store all of the multi-media files, a file managing unit installed in the computer stores some of the multi-media files played in a preset duration;
- while the digital photo frame is electrically connected to the computer again, the file managing unit deletes the multi-media files having been played and not be played anymore within the preset duration and then downloads the some of the multi-media files not stored in the digital photo frame and going to play within the preset duration from the data processing apparatus.
