Multimedia Device For Providing Access To Media Content

View page
US Patent:
8560553, Oct 15, 2013
Filed:
Sep 6, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/470459
Inventors:
Frank R. Bentley - Palatine IL, US
Gunnar F. Harboe - Schaumburg IL, US
Crysta J. Metcalf - Cary IL, US
Guy G. Romano - Elmhurst IL, US
Vivek V. Thakkar - Elk Grove Village IL, US
Assignee:
Motorola Mobility LLC - Libertyville IL
International Classification:
G06F 7/00
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707748, 707899, 707916
Abstract:
A multimedia device and a method embodied in the multimedia device for providing access to media content from a plurality of media content are provided. The multimedia device includes a user interface (UI) with one or more UI controls, a processor, and an output device. The UI controls receive a first set of parameter values from the user, in order to select media content. The processor creates a first list of media content based on a first probabilistic distribution over the plurality of media content. The output device provides access to the media content of the first list of media content to the user. Further, the UI may receive a second set of parameter values, and a second list of media content is then created, based on a second probabilistic distribution. The output device provides access to the media content of the second list of media content to the user.
