System and method for providing media content

摘要

There is presented a system for providing a content stored on a medium, the system comprising a media presentation module including a processor. The processor is configured to retrieve a content payload including a digital content from a data structure residing on the medium, and to retrieve a content-describing metadata stored separately from the digital content, from the data structure. The content-describing metadata provide content information including media encoding information for the digital content and a media profile information for the digital content. The content-describing metadata are configured to provide the content information to the media presentation module prior to rendering the digital content. In one embodiment, the processor is further configured to configure the media presentation module based on the media encoding information and the media profile information, and to present the content on a display.

1. A system for providing a content stored on a non-transitory medium, the system comprising:
an integrated data structure residing on the non-transitory medium, the integrated data structure comprising at least a content-describing metadata and a content payload; a media presentation module including a processor configured to:
retrieve the content payload including a digital content from the integrated data structure;retrieve the content-describing metadata stored separately from the digital content within the integrated data structure, the content-describing metadata configured to provide content information, the content information including:
a media encoding information for the digital content; anda media profile information for the digital content;render the digital content on a display; wherein the content-describing metadata are configured to provide the content information to the media presentation module prior to rendering the digital content, wherein the content-describing metadata further comprise preferred presentation parameters for the digital content, and wherein the content-describing metadata further comprise rules for presenting the digital content when at least one of the preferred presentation parameters is not supported by the media presentation module, and wherein the rules provide instructions for adjusting the preferred presentation parameters based on device performance limitations of a rendering device.
