Embodiment Construction

[0012] The present invention seeks to provide an electronic device configured to permit a user to transfer customized multimedia content across the device. In one embodiment, an electronic device generates data encapsulating a multimedia payload. The data may contain information and / or executable code, and include data such as one or more user-selected starting locations for multimedia content. Each starting location may further be associated with a predetermined event type, such as an incoming phone call. Encapsulating multimedia content facilitates the transfer of multimedia content across electronic devices such that a receiving electronic device can consume the multimedia content without having to redefine user-selected start locations and predetermined event associations.

Abstract

An electronic device is configured to facilitate the transfer of customized multimedia content. A controller (26) encapsulates multimedia payload using data stored in memory (28) and transfers the encapsulated multimedia content to a remote device over a communications interface. The data may include one or more user-selected start positions for the multimedia content, each being associated with a user-specified predetermined event. The device may also receive encapsulated multimedia content, and use the encapsulated information to update local memory (28). This allows the receiving electronic device to use the multimedia content as specified by the sending user without requiring the user to redefine the user-selected start positions and their associated predetermined events.

Description

Background technique [0001] The present invention relates generally to wireless communication devices, and more particularly to systems and methods for transferring multimedia content across wireless communication devices. [0002] An increasing number of mobile devices include features that enable users to enjoy a variety of multimedia content. For example, most devices allow users to listen to music, watch video clips, capture and view images, program ring tones, and more. Some devices additionally allow the user to customize this content, and use the customized content to notify the user of events. This is disclosed in U.S. Patent Application No. 11 / 252,152, entitled "A Method and Apparatus for Customizing an Audio File in a Mobile Device," filed October 15, 2005 and assigned to the assignee of the present invention. An example of such a device. The entire content of this application is hereby incorporated by reference. The '152 application discloses a system and method...
