CA 2721659

A system and method by which a media server's operations may be improved. A new action parameter is provided. The action parameter, which may be used, for example, in browse and CreateObject operations, may be used by a device as a "hint" to inform a server about a forthcoming action. This action param-eter allows the media server to optimize its op-erations, for example by increasing the priority of server processes, scheduling maintenance operations so that they occur at a later time, etc. Information related to the action may be provided by a control point which orders multi-media actions to occur in a home network.

Linvention concerne un système et un procédé par lesquels les opérations dun serveur multimédia peuvent être améliorées. Un nouveau paramètre daction est fourni. Le paramètre daction, qui peut être utilisé, par exemple, dans des opérations de navigation et CreateObject, peut être utilisé par un dispositif comme « indication » pour informer un serveur dune prochaine action. Ce paramètre daction permet au serveur multimédia doptimiser ses opérations, par exemple par laugmentation de la priorité des processus du serveur,  par la programmation des opérations de maintenance de sorte quelles aient lieu ultérieurement, etc. Les informations concernant laction peuvent être fournies par un point de commande qui ordonne les actions multimédias qui auront lieu dans un réseau nominal.
