CONTENT SYNCHRONIZATION TECHNIQUES

摘要

Techniques are disclosed that involve copying recorded content from a host device (e.g., a PVR) to a portable device. A storage medium within the portable device may include a portion that is assigned to store desired content received from the host device. Allocation of this portion may be based on a user selection. In embodiments, content may be automatically copied ("synchronized") from the host device to the portable device. This copying may be based on various factors, such as previous synchronization and/or outputting activities.
