Embodiment Construction

[0020] The following claims will be better understood with reference to the detailed description of various embodiments. This description is not intended to limit the scope of the claims, but rather illustrates design principles and various embodiments for implementing them. Examples of various embodiments include mobile devices and methods of processing content.

[0021] figure 1 One embodiment of a mobile device is illustrated, which is a media player 10 having a memory 12 , a controller 14 , a first output interface 16 , and a second output interface 18 . The memory 12 may be a flash memory, examples of which are NAND flash memory and 3D flash memory. In this embodiment, the first and second output interfaces 16, 18 are headphone or speaker jacks. Controller 14 communicates with memory 12 via memory interface 20, which may be a NAND interface for NAND memory. The controller 14 communicates with the first and second output interfaces 16 and 18 via leads 22 and 24, respec...

Abstract

A mobile device, such as a media player, a telephone, or a gaming console, concurrently produces multiple content streams based on differing playlists. The mobile device includes a memory, a controller, and at least two output interfaces. The controller processes concurrently the content stored in the memory to produce a first content stream according to a first playlist and a second content stream according to a second playlist. More content streams may be produced based on additional playlist, all of which playlist differ from each other. The content streams may include audio content, videocontent, or a combination thereof. For each content stream, an output interface is available to convey the content stream. Also disclosed is a method of processing content to produce and send contentstreams to output interfaces.

Description

Background technique [0001] Mobile devices enable users to process content stored in memory to generate content streams according to playlists. An example of such a mobile device is a media player that provides music to a single user via headphones. Other examples of mobile devices include phones and mobile game consoles. [0002] If multiple users want to listen to the music of the mobile device as a media player, either more headphones must be connected to the media player, or the headphones need to be replaced by at least one speaker. Under this arrangement, all users are restricted to listening to the same music. [0003] According to the current state of the art, multiple users cannot simultaneously access different playlists on the same media player device. If multiple users share the same media player device, they are also limited to sharing the same playlist and thus have the same shared experience. A user who wants to access different playlists simultaneously will...
