MULTIMEDIA PLAYING SYSTEM AND TIME-COUNTING METHOD APPLIED THERETO

摘要

A multimedia playing system includes an audio outputting device and a multimedia player. The audio outputting device includes a connecting plug and a distance detector. The distance detector generates a distance detecting signal if the distance detector detects the presence of a nearby object. The multimedia player is communicated with the audio outputting device through the connecting plug so as to transmit an output audio signal to the audio outputting device. The distance detecting signal is transmitted to the multimedia player through the connecting plug. The multimedia player generates a prompt event to the audio outputting device if the time duration of continuously receiving the distance detecting signal exceeds a time threshold.
