Terminal apparatus with DRM decoding function and DRM decoding method in terminal apparatus

摘要

Provided is a terminal apparatus with a DRM decoding function and a DRM decoding method in a terminal apparatus. The terminal apparatus with a DRM decoding function comprises a native unit which is provided with a local file memory for storing DRM media content data and an application program for driving a media device player using an operating system; and a DRM decoding unit which reads the DRM media content data from the local file memory using a URL path for web server, when it is required from the application program to reproduce the DRM media content data, and decodes the read DRM media content data, and provides the decoded DRM media content data to the media device player. Therefore, it is possible to reproduce the DRM media content data in the terminal apparatus without the exclusive DRM decoding module.

1. A terminal apparatus with a DRM decoding function, comprising:
a native unit provided with a local file memory storing DRM media content data, and an application program for driving a media device player using an operating system; and a DRM decoding unit configured to (a) read the DRM media content data from the local file memory using a web server type of URL path when the application program is to play the DRM media content data, (b) decode the read DRM media content data, and (c) provide the decoded DRM media content data to the media device player, wherein the DRM decoding unit is further configured to convert a local file path of the DRM media content data into a web server type of URL path when the application program is to play the DRM media content data and provide the web server type of URL path to the media device player, and wherein the DRM decoding unit is further configured to inversely convert the web server type of URL path into the physical local file path of the DRM media content data when the media device player is to play the DRM media content data, read the DRM media content data from the local file memory, and decode the read DRM media content data and then provide the decoded DRM media content data to the media device player, wherein web server type URL paths are virtual paths.
