DATA RELAY DEVICE, DIGITAL CONTENT REPRODUCTION DEVICE, DATA RELAY METHOD, DIGITAL CONTENT REPRODUCTION METHOD, PROGRAM, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

A data relay device includes an acquisition unit (101) for acquiring meta data associated with the digital content reproduction in a digital content reproduction device via a network and a conversion unit (102) for converting the description format of the acquired meta data into a description format enabling reproduction of the digital content in the digital content reproduction device. The meta data converted by the conversion unit (102) is outputted to the digital content reproduction device by a communication unit (103). Thus, it is possible to utilize the reproduction sequence-sharing function based on the meta data transmitted via the network.
