SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISPLAY DEVICE DISCOVERY

摘要

A method for creating a list of display devices that are available to receive a video signal from an image generator via network video streaming. One version of the method includes transmitting a display availability packet indicating one or more of the display devices that are available for connection, updating a network display listing module with the information stored in the display availability packet, and transmitting an availability request packet requesting a list of the display devices that are available to receive the video signal. In response to receiving an availability request packet, a display resource list, indicating the display devices available to receive the video signal, is generated from the metadata contained in the availability request packet.
