Multimedia system control device, system and method

Abstract

The invention relates to a control device, a system and a method for a multimedia system and is characterized in that firstly a wireless communication signal received is read into a control code, and then a control command corresponding to the control code is found out by looking up a table, thus carrying out control on the multimedia system. The framework and the method can get rid of the traditional limitation that a specific remote controller has to be used and therefore increase the flexibility of the multimedia system control. In addition, the control command obtained by looking up a table can also be transferred to the control device on the other end by the network, so that the multimedia system on the other end can be controlled, thus achieving the aim of remote control.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a control device, system and method, and in particular to a control device, system and method of a multimedia system.

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, although it is very convenient to use the remote control to control the multimedia interface, the specifications of the remote control must pass the certification of the multimedia center system, and the computer must also be equipped with a USB interface receiver that is also certified by the multimedia center system. Provides the functions of receiving, playing, and even synchronizing or scheduling recording, which not only limits the types of remote controls that can be used, but also limits the multimedia functions that can be operated by the remote control. Users cannot use other types of "wireless transmission devices" to control the multimedia center system, and cannot design a control function that meets its own needs
