Abstract
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a terminal and a method for controlling an audio output path is provided. The terminal includes: an audio output path setting unit to determine an audio output path for one or more audio data when one or more audio event occurs; an audio output unit to output a first audio data in a first audio output path; and a data communication unit to transmit one or more audio data other than the first audio data to external terminal(s) by setting a second audio output path.

A source terminal to control an audio output path, the source terminal comprising:
- a processor configured with processor-executable instructions to:
- execute events comprising audio data;
- acquire a first audio data and a second audio data, the first audio data being different from the second audio data;
- select a first terminal and a second terminal from the source terminal and one or more sink terminals connected to the source terminal to simultaneously output the first audio data and the second audio data, respectively;
- and
- set a first audio output path to output the first audio data and a second audio output path to output the second audio data,
- wherein the first audio data is delivered in the first audio output path to the first terminal, and the second audio data is delivered in the second audio output path to the second terminal, and
- wherein the first audio output path and the second audio output path are set based on audio output information comprising a type of an audio codec of the source terminal and the one or more sink terminals and a priority level.
A method for controlling an audio output path, the method comprising:
- executing events comprising audio data;
- acquiring a first audio data and a second audio data, the first audio data being different from the second audio data;
- selecting a first terminal and a second terminal from a source terminal and one or more sink terminals connected to the source terminal to simultaneously output the first audio data and the second audio data, respectively;
- and
- setting a first audio output path to output the first audio data to the first terminal and a second audio output path to output the second audio data to the second terminal, the second audio output path being different from the first audio output path,
- wherein the first audio output path and the second audio output path are set based on audio output information comprising a type of an audio codec of the source terminal and the one or more sink terminals and a priority level.

- select a first terminal and a second terminal from the source terminal and one or more sink terminals connected to the source terminal to simultaneously output a first audio and a second audio corresponding to the first audio data and the second audio data, respectively;
- and
- set a first audio output path and a second audio output path for the first audio data and the second audio data to be delivered to the selected first and second terminals,
- wherein the first audio output path and the second audio output path are set based on audio output information comprising a type of an audio codec of the source terminal and the one or more sink terminals and a priority level.
