Method and apparatus for retrieving a media file of interest

摘要

A method for retrieving a media file from a media rendering device with an initial set of media files stored in the device is suggested. Each media file has attributed feature values stored in the device and is associated to a graphical element displayed on a display. The position of each graphical element on the display depends on a multitude of the feature values of the associated media file. The method comprises the steps of receiving and storing a new set of media files in the device, calculating the position of graphical elements associated with the media files of the new set of media files based on a subset of the multitude of associated feature values, displaying the graphical elements associated with the media files of the new set of media files on the display on the calculated positions, and selecting one displayed graphical element to retrieve the associated media file.
