SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING STORED MEDIA CONTENT

摘要

A method and system for managing stored media content is described. A media receiver displays media library information corresponding to a set of media items, the media items comprising at least one local media item downloaded from a remote media server and stored at the media receiver. The media receiver stores data defining a respective key file associated with each of said at least one local media items, each data file including metadata defining a persistence state of the associated media item. A user command to archive a selected one of the media items in the media library is processed, whereby the selected media item is deleted from the media receiver and the metadata of the associated data file is updated with the archived persistence state.
